Final Fantasy V is a 1992 role-playing game for the Super Famicom, later released on other platforms, in which Cure is a recurring White Magic spell used to restore a party member's health. The short chime became familiar to players through repeated battles, menus and dungeon runs, where healing was a constant part of survival. As retro Final Fantasy clips circulated in edits, streams and soundboards, the sound kept its meaning outside the game, instantly signalling recovery, rescue or a second chance.
