The
party finds a mother nursing her child, she says "Cure" but then sees
the
party and quickly looks for her "Cure Medecine" but the child
wants her
mother to use Cure on her, what are they talking about? Now head
inside to
the top right house and talk to the old man inside:
"An
elderly gentleman, pure of heart, and learned in the way of
monsters..."
Now
enter his mae in as Strago and leave it at that. The party then asks him
about
espers, but he's not really familiar with the word. However he
hesitantly
denies it, but the party spots that and the music shifts as a
young girl comes
in.
"In her pictures she captures everything: forests, water, light...
the very
essence of life..."
Now name her Relm so you can follow
the walkthrough better. She then asks who
the people are and if they can use
magic as well, but Strago tells her to
keep it down. She then sees Shadow's
dog, but Shadow warns her that he bites.
Strago tells her to go to her room,
but Shadow's dog follows her. The party
senses something a bit odd and decides
to take a look around. Now take a rest
in the inn, and the innkeeper who usually
charges 1500 GP for a night's stay
for strangers now will let you sleep in
his inn for 1 GP. Then later in the
middle of the night Strago wakes the party
as Relm is trapped in the
neighbor's house and a fire has broken out.
He
asks the party to help and Shadow is a bit slow to acknowledge. Now head
for
the house below Strago's house and a fire has gone rampant. Strago then
casts
an Ice spell, but the Mayor comes in and tells him that magic is
forbidden,
but Strago doesn't care, and the Mayor seems like he has no
choice. The people
in this town gather to try to put the flames out by magic
but are unsuccessful
in doing so. Then Strago and the party decides to go in,
but you will have
to avoid the flames. IF you do encounter a Flame a battle
with three Ballons
will start. Make your way towards the center of the house,
along the way you
can pick up an ICE ROD and a FIRE ROD. When you reach the
center top of the
house the FlameEater will attack you.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: FlameEater HP: 8400
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In
this battle have Strago use his AquaRake, have Locke attacks as normal and
if
Terra has an Ice or Ice2 spell then use it. The FlameEater will call for
about
4 Balloons to join the battle as well which obviously makes the battle
a lot
tougher. Keeo your HP above 100 and continue the same pattern until
he's gone.
After
the battle Interceptor finds Relm unconsious, then the flames in the
house
knock the party out, and then they begin to gang up on Interceptor, but
Shadow
comes in and takes out the flames and uses a Smoke Bomb to get the
party out.
Then they find themselves in Strago's house, who tells them that
this is the
Village of the Mage Warriors. It was long ago that humans used
magicite to
gain magical powers, and later they became known as Mage
Warriors. It was
after the War of the Magi that the espers fled to the other
realm and left
the Mage Warriors to defend for themselves.
The humans blamed the Mage
Warriors for causing the war and they were hunt
down like animals. A few Mage
Warriors escaped and found refuge here, their
powers have weakened over time.
The party needs Strago's help and he is
willing to do so for the party saving
Relm. Relm wants to come along but
Strago won't allow her to do so. So if
the espers are in the world where are
they? Their in the mountains to the
west, mainly because the mountains have
strong magical properties. Legend
has it that the espers were created there
so the party decides to have a look.
So exit out of the house and you will
see Shadow(who left earlier) outside.
Shadow wants to search for the espers
his own way. So now that he is out of
your party head west towards the
mountains.

A
FATE UNDENIED
Items: X-Potion, Chocobo Suit, Tabby Suit, Heal Rod
Party:
Whomever
Party's level: 16-19
=============================================================================
In
the mountains head inside and pick up a HEAL ROD and head towards the top
right
of the cave, and yes that is Relm following you, but the party does not
notice
it. Then continue on and when you reach a room with three gold statues
in
the middle head for them. It appears that the three statues created magic
as
we know it and they are the source of all magic. It is said that the
espers
made these images and arranged them in a special place as the statues
represent
power beyond comprehension. It appears that the other magic flashes
are hidden
beyond human reach, most likely beyond the gate. Afterwards head
for the left
side of the room but before the party can do that they are
attacked by Ultros
and he mentions Ziegfried, wait a minute. That bozo from
the Phantom Train?
Then he will attack you as it seems that he has not
learned his lesson yet.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Ultros HP: 22000
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
battle isn't so tough. Watch for his Tentacle attack, it will deal about
100
HP of damage to every character when he spreads it so keep your HP above
200
just to be safe. Attack like normal but since Ultros is an Octopus don't
attack
him with Strago's AquaRake, otherwise you will heal him. After losing
a certain
amount of HP Relm will come in(Relm's music sure is pleasant on a
hard day's
work, especially to relieve stress wouldn't you agree?). She will
then talk
to Ultros, Ultros will seem a bit angered by her as all she wants
is just
a portrait of the octapus. She then starts to get a bit down and is
about
to jump down, Terra stops her before she does and whispers something in
Terra's
ear. Terra then yells at Ultros for being such a bother to Relm, and
Locke
and Terra finally convince Ultros to tell Relm to draw Ultros a
portrait.
Ultros then casts Haste and Safe on himself, and no this is not for
the battle
but to make himself look a bit better for the portrait(!). Have
Relm use her
Sketch command and Ultros can't believe that he is no more than
just a mere
ocatpus. Then Ultros escapes.
After the battle Relm is excited that she
had helped out the party so much
and the party reluctantly lets her join.
Then continue onto the next room and
there are three switches on the floor.
Now take the bottom left switch and
then you will be dropped to the floor
below. Later you will make your way
around until you find the espers, and
it appears that they are out numbered.
Relm and Strago try to escape but are
but off by the other espers. Yura then
tells the other espers to stop and
Terra confronts him, but Strago senses
very high magical powers from Terra
that it frightens him.
Then afterwards Yura senses something in Terra and
that he senses some
familiar powers in her. The espers had set up a rule that
they were not
allowed through the gate and they had to fly through the gate
to save the
other espers that had been kidnapped. The espers had lost control
of their
powers when they had fled through the gate and leveled an entire
city and
innocent lives were lost. Locke wants the espers to come with them
to talk
peace to the Emperor in Thamasa. Later the scene shifts towards Thamasa
and
General Leo and and Yura talk things out.
Yura apologizes for his
actions, but he feels that an apology does not excuse
them from their actions,
but General Leo thinks it is the humans who have to
apologize because they
were so power hungry. Then when all is said and done,
the party and espers
laugh about it, but as does Kefka. He comes in with
Magitek soldiers as they
blast the party and General Leo's soldiers. It
appears that Kefka is acting
under the Emperor's orders to bring back the
magicite remains to the Emperor.
He then turns the espers into magicite as he
wants the town destroy as well.
After Kefka sends one of his troops to knock
out General Leo, he awakens.
Don't try to leave town though because Guardians
will block your path and
if you do lose you will have to start over again.
Now talk to Kefka and a
a fight will start.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Kefka HP: 5000
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In
this battle have General Leo FIGHT, he has the relic that allows him to
use
X-Fight. But if you want you can use SHOCK, which looks awesome! After
defeating
Kefka he hides himself, and then Kefka calles for Emperor Gestahl.
He apologizes
to General Leo for decieving him as all he wanted was power,
but then suddenly
he changes to Kefka as it was him all along. General Leo
was only fighting
Kefka's shadow during the battle and after words Kefka
sends General Leo a
fatal wound that kills him.
After the battle a wave of energy flood the
town and the scene shifts towards
the Sealed Gate as the espers come flying
through the portal as they try to
help their fallen friends as they fly towards
Thamasa. He then completely
harnesses the power of the other espers as even
another esper who challenges
him but even he falls to Kefka's powers. Then
he captures the rest of the
espers' powers as things don't look good. Later
when Kefka leaves the party
mourns over the death of General Leo, all people
seem to want is power.
Then Interceptor comes in and is badly wounded as
it appears that Shadow is
gone as well. The party is worried about Edgar and
the others and Terra wish
she could say that they were safe, but then the
other party members come by
and meet up with the party. It appears that they've
been had, the Emperor was
a liar all along. Edgar had gotten to know a girl
who had brought them tea
who later blurted out the entire plan. The other
party is shocked to hear
that General Leo was killed as he was their finest
soldier. The party then
decides to think up of a new strategy as Relm wishes
to come along, but
Strago insists until Relm forcefully sways Strago's decision.
The party then
heads for the airship to discuss their plans.
=============================================================================
FLOATING
CONTINENT AND FLOATING MISERY
Items: Murasame, Elixir, Beret, Atma Weapon(steal
from Atma Weapon), Hardened
knife
Party: Whomever
Party's level: 17-20
=============================================================================
On
the airship it appears that the Empire is headed for the statues. The
scene
then shifts towards Kefka and Emperor Gestahl and they appear to be at
the
brink of obtaining the espers. Terra senses that the world is in groaning
pain
as suddenly the land rips apart taking with it innocent lives as a giant
continent
is floated upon the world. Kefka and Gestahl are laughing about it,
but the
party seems worried. The statues were sealed away a long time ago,
but if
the statues are ever moved out of alignment even an inch the resulting
imbalance
of power would result in the entire rearrangement of the planet.
Now head
for the floating continent if you want, but if you need time to
prepare then
head down to the shops and buy some extra items. When you are
all done head
head for the floating continent but you will need to devise a
party of 1-3,
you can't have four in your party, why? You'll see soon enough.
But before
you can get on the floating continent the IAF or Imperial Air
Force is here
to stop you and you will have quite a bit of work on your
hands. After a few
battles with the Sky Armor and Spit Fire(s) you will
eventually meet up with
Ultros.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Ultros & Chupon HP: 17,000(Ultros) 10,000(Chupon)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't
be shocked by the HP, you only have to lose them about a few thousand
hit points,
after you damage Ultros enough he will call for his friend
Chupon.(For those
of you wondering Ultros and Chupon does not work for the
Empire) This is also
the first time you fight Ultros in the too hip boss
music. Keep using all of
your best attacks and such and keep pounding him.
Lose Ultros about 4500 and
his friend Chupon will come. After losing
Ultros about 8000 HP the second time
you will finally defeat him and you
will have to lose Chupon about 10,000 to
defeat him. When you defeat
Chupon he will use his Sneeze attack which will
blow everyone away from
battle.
After the battle the party is blown
off the airship and another boss
approaches them. Note that even though you
were severely wounded the last
battle you come to the next boss battle fully
healed up.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: MissleBay & Laser Gun & Air Force & Speck HP: 14,720(total)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
boss will be tough, watch for your HP and keep them above 280. First
take out
the Laser Gun and MissleBay so you won't have to deal with them.
Then concentrate
your attacks full force on the Air Force. After destroying
the MissleBay and
Laser Gun the Air Force will release a Speck which will
absorb all magic(including
Ultima in which I used the Gameshark to get at
this point in the game!). Hit
it with a physical attack and it should be
gone, but if you don't get rid of
it quick you will have trouble damaging
the Air Force with magic. Also at this
time it will begin a countdown
starting from 6, if you do not destroy both
the Speck and AirForce you
will be eating the WaveCannon, a powerful attack(that
has some cool special
effects!) that does anywhere from 500-640 HP of damage
to every character in
your party! That's what makes this boss so hard! After
defeating the boss you
will acquire the CZARINA RING.
NOTE: When you
encounter Gigantos, you can use the Phantom Esper to dodge
his attacks.
You
will now be on the Floating Continent, talk to Shadow and he will join
your
party and it appears that the Empire tried to kill Shadow when they had
obtained
the statues. After obtaining Shadow and saving your game head right
and towards
the bottom, the path should open up automatically, then check the
blue orb
just ahead to pick up the MURASAME blade for Cyan, then continue on
towards
the right and the path will open up for you(don't head for the stairs
just
yet) and it will lead to another blue orb and a monster will attack you,
but
its a VERY tough monster.
Use all your best attacks and throw anything
you may have at him, his Throat
Jab attack does over 500 HP of damage so you
must watch out for that. After
the battle you will recieve a HARDENED knife.
Heal your wounds also and then
continue onto the top, it will take you to
the bottom path of the floating
Continent. Then head down and hit the switch
and it will open up the right
side for you, then continue on and go to the
next transporter. Here you will
see two other transporters so take the one
on the left, it will take you to a
switch at the bottom.
Hit that switch
and the path below will pave way for you, then continue on to
the top left
and hit that switch as well and make your way down and around.
Keep going
right and you will see a switch, don't hit it just yet until you
have picked
up the blue orb and it will give you a BERET. Then head for the
bottom transporter
and it will lead to a save point, so save your game and
heal your wounds.
Then continue on back and hit the switch at the top left
and it will open
up a transporter.
Go to it and you will end up on the heart of the Floating
Continent, and
you will also have the chance to head back to your airship,
if you choose
to go back to your airship you will head back to your airship
but you will
have to go through the entire Floating Continent all over again.
Choose no,
unless you really have to go back for some needed supplies, and
head towards
the center and talk to the monster guarding your way and a tough
fight will
ensue.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
FIGHT: AtmaWeapon HP: 24,000
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: Another highly useful tip from Earthq:
"Atma Weapon (on the Floating
Continent) can be defeated a LOT more easily
if you obtained Osmose and Rasp
from Magicite Shiva. When you wear down
his magic points to zero, he's done
for (because remember he said he was
pure energy?)"
In this battle
it will be very tough, use all of your best attacks and have
Edgar use his
Drill attack. You can also steal another ATMAWEAPON from this
guy, do so if
you like but you must have Locke in your party. Keep attacking
him with your
strongest attacks and keep your HP above 450, yes that's right.
He will use
Flare at some point, and most likely your party member will not
survive that.
But definitely watch for the Quake attack that does about 600
HP of damage
to every character.
After the battle Shadow has sold his rights to the
Empire and cannot fight
with you so he leaves. Then the party approaches Kefka
and Gestahl, but Celes
also comes in as well, but it appears that the party
is too late. Gestahl has
already taken in some of the statues' power, Celes
tries to convince him tos
top but Gestahl shows the party is awesome power,
and every party member but
Celes is stunned. Gestahl wants Celes to rule the
world with him, Kekfa tells
Celes if she kills the party members her past
treachery to the Empire will be
forgotten.
She takes the sword and
thinks about the situation, would she really betray
her friends? No, power
only breeds war as she turns around and stabs Kefka.
He really HATES Celes
for doing that as he flops dead on the ground, but he
doesn't die as he uses
the power of the Statues to revive himself. But if
Kefka tries to revive those
statues it will destroy the world that they are
trying to possess, but Kefka
doesn't listen as Kefka and Gestahl enter
battle against each other. Gestahl
doesn't want Kefka to do so as he tries to
put Kefka into a deep sleep, but
Kefka laughs.
Gestahl uses Fire3 and Flare but nothing happens as Kefka
is unharmed due to
the fact that Kefka is in the field of the statues. He
then commands the
statues to attack Gestahl, it misses and sends the two flying
back. After a
few tries Gestahl is finally hit and Kefka pushes Gestahl off
the Floating
Continent down to the Earth below. Kefka then rearranges the
statues, but
Shadow then comes in and pushes the statues back into place and
the rest of
the party are now free.
Shadow tells the party to run but
he can't stop the chain reaction, but he
guarantees the party that he will
meet up with them again. You will have 6
minutes to escape, and along the
way you will have to fight against several
Naughty(s) and a Nepura at the
end of the path. Its a bit tricky picking up
that Blue orb, try to go around
without going near the blue orb and pick it
up to recieve an ELIXIR. When
you arrive at your destination you will have
the option of JUMP or WAIT, choose
WAIT and Shadow should come by and meet
with you when your time reaches under
10 seconds.
After the party lands on the airship the statues begin to unleash
its
incredible energy as it levels the land below. The party tries to escape
the
statues' power but the power is too great as it splits the airship in
half
and sends the party members flying across the world. Afterwards a giant
and
very impressive Napalm like explosion emits from the field as the world
is
changed forever.

WORLD FOREVER CHANGED

Party: Celes
Party's level: 19
=============================================================================
Here
you will awaken as Cid has tended to Celes for over a year since the
statues'
corruption. It appears that they have landed on a tiny deserted
island with
a few strangers, but it appears that they have died of boredom
and despair.
Cid doesn't even know where Locke is or if he even is alive
at all, Celes thinks
that the entire party might have been wiped out as
the world continued to slide
into ruin from that day one year ago.
Cid however has not eaten in days
ever since he became ill, but he doesn't
want to eat fish but its the only
thing to eat here! While Cid lies down
go look for a fish for him to eat outside,
he will live longer if you catch
him a fast fish, but since he is suppose
to die anyways it really does not
matter. Keep doing this until he starts
to cough and he wants to thank you,
after that go outside and pick up another
fish and walk back inside to Cid.
This time he does not respond, she keeps
trying to get Cid to eat, but its
too late. Celes can't even believe that
Cid is gone and she decides to take a
walk up along shore, she then finds
a small letter on the floor, when the
other people where feeling down they
use to jump off the cliff up
north...perked 'em right up! She feels alone
that every one is gone, even
Locke, the one who promised to protect her. She
jumps off the cliff just to
see her friends on the other side. Then she washes
up shore in front of Cid's
house, a bird wakes Celes back up, but she gets
a bit angry that the bird
nursed her back to health(figuratively of course)
and then notices a bandana,
could it be that Locke is still alive? Celes believes
so, now head back to
Cid's house.
Inside you will find a letter next
to Cid, check it and he will tell you that
her friends are still waiting for
her and that the stairs next to the stove
awaits her road to freedom. So go
check the staircase next to the stove to
the left and you will find a small
hidden room containing a raft, she says
her last goodbyes and leaves off.
LAter you will end up near a town, enter it
and try to gather some information.

Inside there is a HEAL ROD, PEARL ROD, HYPER WRIST, Monster-in-a-box,
TINCTURE,
MAGICITE, another Monster-in-a-box, and a DRAINER sword. Inside
there will
be some random encounters, quickly head for the boy inside the
house first
and get him out, you will be given a rather lengthy 6 minutes to
do so.
Afterwards
the people dive for cover as the house collapses as Sabin jumps
away. Celes
is shocked to find Sabin, as she had given up hope, but now that
she has found
Sabin they may all be alive! Now they must search for the other
party members.
Now head for the northeast part of town and you will find a
man hidden behind
some trees, he's not exactly super visible, but he is
spotable. Talk to him
and he will give you a stone for 10 GP, do so and you
will recieve the Magicite
Sraphim. Afterwards head east out of town to

Head
towards Mobliz to the far east, its a rather long walk through a bridge
though.
Inside when you walk in two dogs will block your path and a small kid
will
come out, he will then go back in and hide. Go to the house in which he
went
inside and go downstairs and the party will finally meet up with Terra
for
the first time since the incident over a year ago. She's happy to see the
party,
but when they talk about going to stop Kefka Terra walks away. Follow
her
and talk to her, she will tell you that she can fight no longer.
After
the day the world changed Kefka directed a beam towards the town and
all the
adults of the town died while protecting their young. Terra felt that
the
children needed Terra and she can't leave them, Duane then comes in and
tells
the party that they can't take her away. Terra can't fight because she
lost
her will to fight because the kids made her feel something that she had
never
felt before. Now leave, as the party leaves a kid informs Terra that
Phunbaba
is coming, Terra then goes out to confront Phunbaba as he is an
ancient demon
that was released when the world came asunder.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Phunbaba HP: 28,000

After the battle Terra is injured but otherwise fine and recovering
quickly
as she has lost her fighting edge as well as her fighting spirit.
Terra
decides to stay in Mobliz as she cannot be of any further help to the
party.
The party then leaves, but the kid stops you and thanks you for stopping

him and
he will deny that he Edgar(could it be possible that he has
amnesia?), as
he trys to avoid you keep talking to him. He calls Celes "my
lady"
and she knows Edgar would only say "my lady" and Gerad is a bit
shocked,
but he tells her that "my lady" is used all over the world. Then
follow
him towards the docks, the party will conceal themselves from Gerad's

the CRYSTAL HELM, GRAVITY ROD, X-POTION,
and an ETHER. Then make your way
through to the top left door and pick up
the REGAL CROWN. Then head back and
make your way to the center of the engine
room, the party sees the thieves
and Gerad and also the cause of the problem
with Figaro castle. Gerad then
tells the thieves to get the treasure while
he takes care of the creature
that has been a problem for Figaro Castle. Gerad
finally admits to the party
that he is Edgar, so aren't they going to give
him a hand?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Tentacle(4) 7,000(1), 5,000(2), 4,000(3 & 4)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
battle will be tough, have Edgar use his CrossBow, Celes her Ice magic,
and
Sabin use his AirBlade blitz, if he has it, otherwise just have him use
pummel.
They will occasionally use Sieze, and it will capture a party member,
so any
damage done to the tentacle the party member will feel a fraction of
it, but
don't let that stop you from destroyng the boss though.
After the battle
Edgar tells why he did not wanted to be known as Edgar
because he wanted to
use the thieves that had escaped and they lead them to
their secret cave.
Then Edgar hears the thieves coming and hides, the thieves
leave as they thought
Gerad was swallowed up by the monster and Edgar's
intention was never to get
the treasure anyways. Now go into the treasure
room and you will see that
all the treasure chests have been checked and
emptied, but check the center
statue to reveal a SOUL SABRE. Now return to
the top floor of the engine room
and the driver will lift the castle to the
surface. Now talk to the driver
again and head towards Kohlingen.
=============================================================================
RETURN
TO KOHLINGEN
Items: None
Party: Edgar, Sabin, Celes
Party's level: 17-22
=============================================================================
Now
head towards the town of Kohlingen which is located northwest from Figaro
castle
and head towards the pub. You will see Setzer in his chair, talk to
him as
he will be surprised that you are alive. Celes wants Edgar to come
with them
but he doesn't have it anymore, its a world too chaotic for him and
he has
lost his wings. Celes then finally convinces Setzer to come along with
them.
Setzer wants to visit Daryl's tomb as he will get the party another
one...airship
that is! The game will automatically tell you where Daryl's
tomb is, so head
for that direction.
=============================================================================
ANOTHER
AIRSHIP AWAITS AND A TRAGIC PAST
Items: Exp.Egg, Man Eater, Crystal Mail, Czarina
Gown, Genji Helmet
Party: Edgar, Celes, Sabin
Party's level: 17-22
=============================================================================
Here
inside Setzer opens up the door under Daryl's tomb, someone which Setzer
knew
in his past. Enter in the tomb and continue through to basement 2. Now
head
for the top right door and check the tombstone to reveal a door, and hit
the
switch to let loose the water. Then head towards the bottom left door and
pick
up the CRYSTAL MAIL, continue on and pick up the CZARINA GOWN. In the
next
room hit the switch and then head back towards basement 2. Then take the
bottom
right door and pick up a GENJI HELMET, and head back to basement 2 and
take
the middle room. In this room take the turtle through to the next room
and
then hit the switch, but don't take the turtle ride yet, go to the bottom
room
and in here there are four tombstones. They read:
UARE ISSQ
ORLD
THEW
Can you guess what it is trying to say? Yes that's right "THE
WORLD IS
SQUARE" Pretty catchy and inventive huh? Now head back to basement
2 and take
the top left door and carve something in the tombstone. Carve in
"THEWORLDISSQUARE" and it will reveal the location of the EXP.EGG
relic in
Daryl's tomb. You do not need to go through the tomb finding and
tomb writing
to actually obtain the EXP.EGG relic, you can get it without
doing the
puzzles, but its just funner this way! Now head back to the middle
door in
basement 2 and continue on through to the next save point. Here don't
pick up
any treasure chests, but do save your game and heal your wounds if
any. Check
the treasure chest to the right inside is a Presenter.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Presenter HP: 9,845 ITEM: Dragon Claw
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
boss is pretty hard, but he's like the first boss you faced at the
beginning
of the game. Hit the aprt with the treasure chest and do not hit
the shell
otherwise recieve a nasty Magnitude8 quake attack. Keep your HP
above 600,
otherwise the GigaVolt will get you unless you have something that
can obsorb
lightning attacks. When he goes into his shell heal your party
members and
wait for him to pop out of his shell and then attack him. Keep
this same pattern
until he's gone.
Afterwards check the other treasure chest to the right
and pick up a MAN
EATER dagger, then save your game and heal your wounds if
neccessary. Now
make your way towards the next room and check Daryl's tomb,
but as the party
does another boss attacks them.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Dullahan HP: 23,450
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
boss will be tough. He will use Level? Pearl, if your levels are not
divisible
by 2 then you should be fine. He will use Ice 3 and Pearl in this
battle,
and there isn't really much that you can do about it except bring
that character
back to life and heal them. Don't use Ice magic in this battle
because it
will heal him, use Fire magic and keep pounding away with Sabin's
Suplex or
Pummel, Setzer's Slot attack, have Celes use Runic occasionally
because this
boss uses a lot of magic and have Edgar use his Chainsaw.
After the battle
the door behind the tomb will open. Continue on through and
inside the music
changes as Setzer has a retrospect of old memories. A
flashback occurs, and
an expierimental airship might prove unstable, but
Daryl decides to go anyways
and tells Setzer that if anything should happen
to her the Falcon is his.
But Setzer thinks he will win it from her in a
race, the scene then shifts
towards the flashback of Setzer's view in his
flying airship as the two race
head to head. Daryl wants to be the only woman
who came closest to the stars
as Setzer will wait for her on their hill
before sunset. Daryl never showed
up, a year later after the two's race the
wreck of the Falcon was found.
Setzer
had found the airship and restored it and place it near Daryl's tomb,
he couldn't
bare to look at it because of what it did to Daryl, but it might
be the thing
that will save not only the party, but bring a new sense of hope
to all living
in the world(notice the music change, upbeat and its time to
put a pounding
on Kefka). The airship rises out of the waters and the party
can attack Kefka
from the air, but before they can do so they will need to
find their friends.
Then a bird comes by and Celes wants Setzer to follow it,
she doesn't know
why, so Setzer does and the party lands in the town of
Maranda.
=============================================================================
THE
TOWN OF MIRANDA AND THE MYSTERIOUS MAN
Items: None
Party: Celes, Setzer,
Sabin, Edgar
Party's level: 19-22
=============================================================================
In
here talk to the lady to the right of the armors shop and she will show
you
some rather useful information, something you can use! Although they are
only
views of each location, there is something that you can do once your
done
obtaining your next party member. Here in this town the people describe
a
strange man who kept calling people "thou" but can it be Cyan? Then
talk to
Lola in the house to the far right of town, inside she said someone
sent her
flowers all hand made of silk from Mobliz, including a letter, but
wasn't
Molbiz demolished by Kefka's beam of light?
Then read the letter
and the handwriting looks a lot like Cyan's, but where
is it coming from. Lola
will ask to attach the reply to a carrier pigeon,
so will you? Of course!
Take it to the bird just outside the house to the
left and it will show you
where it is going, follow that bird to the next
destination.
=============================================================================
RETURN
TO ZOZO
Items: Rust-Rid(Key Item)
Party: Edgar, Sabin, Celes, Setzer
Party's
level: 19-22
=============================================================================
Here
when you enter Zozo talk to the carrier pigeon and it will fly off,
follow
that bird to the top of this town. But first you can't get through
since the
door at the top is locked, talk to the walking merchant in this
town and he
will sell you the Rust-Rid for 1000 GP to open the door, do so
and continue
through to the top of the pub and onto Mt.Zozo.
=============================================================================
JOURNEY
THROUGH MT.ZOZO
Items: Ice Shield, Gold Hairpin, ed Cap, Aegis Shield, Thunder
Shield
Party: Celes, Sabin, Setzer, Edgar
Party's level: 19-22
=============================================================================
Here
continue to the left and pick up the ICE SHLD and RED CAP and continue
down.
Also note that there will be this bear that you will encounter in
random battles
and will steal a CHUNK of your money, defeat it quickly and
you will win back
your money, if not he will escape and your hard earned
money will be forever
gone. Then pick up the THUNDER SHLD and equip it, then
continue towards the
top and pick up the AEGIS SHLD and equip it then head
for the door to the
left and outside is a GOLD HAIRPIN relic, then go back
inside and take the
right path.
Outside make your way through pass the rope bridge and onto
the next cave and
to the left is a save point. Save your game and heal your
wounds. NOTE: You
can hit the switch at the top right to reveal a Storm Dragon
if you want, but
I must warn you that its QUITE POWERFUL, so ignore that top
switch for now
and if you do want to fight it, check my strategies in the
Side Areas down
below. Now continue through down and make your way to the
room with the silk
flowers. Read the letter Cyan is about to send to Lola
and you will discover
that her boyfriend passed away sometime ago and he begs
for her forgiveness
as he wants her to make a new start with her life.
Now
make your way to the right and Cyan will send another letter to Lola. The
party
then grett themselves to Cyan as they have not seen each other for so
long
and Cyan will automatically decide to go with the party, Cyan wonders
how
the party found him and he believes that the party has been reading his
letters
and quickly goes inside the cave and removes the flowers and letter
and claims
that all of this was just a diversion of his. But we all know that
it was
no diversion scheme, he had passed through Miranda and heard about
Lola and
felt sorry for her.
She had sent letters everyday and recieved no reply,
and Cyan being the noble
hearted man that he is decides to pretend to be her
boyfriend. He saw a
similarity between her and him, they were both looking
behind, but something
then changed. He had also bumped into Gau in Maranda,
and Gau wanted to
become stronger if he was to face Kefka and most likely
he had returned to
the Veldt. Now head back to the right side of the mountain
where Cyan was and
pick up the key to Cyan's treasure chest. Inside the treasure
chest is a rare
item, a book about machinery and a "Book of Secrets."
Now head out of Mt.Zozo
and out of Zozo and back to your airship.
=============================================================================
TERRA
COME BACK!
Items: Ether
Party: Whomever
Party's level: 20-23
=============================================================================
On
your airship Cyan is in the engine room just dazzled over the machinery on
the
Falcon, talk to him if you want to change party members. Then when you
are
done head towards Mobliz and find Terra. In here Terra is not in her
house,
and it appears that Katarin ran off as Duane was a bit angry. Go to
the house
on the left side of Mobliz and watch the dog carefully. Follow that
dog downstairs
and you will see Terra, Katarin is about to have a baby and
Duane comes in
and apologizes. He hasn't been the best husband but he is
learning and wants
Katarin to come back with him. Then suddenly the whole
place shakes as Phunbaba
returns. Now you must right against Phunbaba again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Phunbaba HP: 26,000
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
battle is the same like last time, lose him a certain amount of HP and
he
will use his BabaBreath and blow two party members away.
After the battle
Terra comes and decides to help out the party as she turns
into her esper
form.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Phunbaba HP: 26,000
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
battle should be the same through and out. Have Terra use her magic and
have
the other party members attack regularly.
After the battle the kids see
Terra and run back in fear, but the little girl
notices that she is Terra.
The children are not afraid of Terra anymore and
she understands what she
has been burying for so long..."love." She realizes
that she must
fight for the future of the children, she gives her goodbyes to
Katarin and
Duane and to the children, and Terra has discovered a new part of
her she
never understood until now and she will fight for the people who have
not
even been born yet. Now head back to your airship and rearrange your new
party
and head towards the Veldt which is north of Mobliz.

party members ONLY!)
Party's level: 20-23
=============================================================================
Here
on the Veldt walk into a random encounter, also make sure that you only
have
three members in your party, if you have four then Gau won't come to
you.
When you go into a random encounter win the battle and Gau will come at
the
end and will travel with you now. After you are done head to the cave on

=============================================================================
SHADOW,
RELM, I DON'T KNOW!
Items: Striker, Rage-Ring
Party: Whomever
Party's
level: 20-23
=============================================================================
In
here when you enter Interceptor will see you and it appears that he wants
you
to follow him. So follow him and in this next room there are thieves near
a
fire, talk to them and they will tell you SPECIFICALLY how to acquire Gau
if
you had not done so yet, so if you can't interpret their words and still
don't
understand you are pretty slow! Continue through and pick up the
treasure
chest to the left and inside it contains a RAGE RING relic. There is
also
another treasure chest which contains TIGER FANGS for Sabin, but its
guarded
by an Allo Ver.
After that make your way through to the bottom staircase.
And continue to go
through the stairs until you reach a door with a switch
to the right of it.
Hit the switch and pick up the STRIKER and then continue
through to the right
and you should eventually reach a save point, so save
your game and heal your
wounds. Then make your way to the next room you will
see Shadow(or Relm if
Shadow did not jump off with you on the Floating Continent).
Then suddenly
the party is attacked!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: SirBehemoth(2) HP: 19,000
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
battle will be difficult, cause you will have to face off against the
two
of them. Have Terra and Celes use Fire magic on the first SirBehemoth and
have
Cyan use his SwdTech, Sabin his Blitz(pummel or Suplex), Gau anyone of
his
rage attacks, Setzer his regular attacks or Slots, and have Edgar use his
Drill
in this battle. Keep doing this until the first one dies and then
another
one will attack from behind. This time continue the same pattern but
have
Celes and Terra use Ice magic against the 2nd SirBehemoth. After
defeating
the two you will recieve a BEHEMOTHSUIT and CRUSTAL SHLD.
After the battle
the party takes Shadow(or Relm) to Thamasa where he can heal
his wounds. Then
a flashback occurs to Shadow's past where he left out of
town and Interceptor
follows.
NOTE: If you saved Relm a different scenario will take place obviously.
Now leave towards Jidoor which is south of Zozo on the western part of
the
world map.
=============================================================================
OWZER
Items:
Moogle Suit, Relic Ring, 2000GP, Potion, Ether, Remedy
Party: Whomever
Party's
level: 21-24
=============================================================================
Here
head straight for the mansion up top to Owzer's house. Inside here head
straight
up and turn on the lights. Then head to the left and you will notice
that
the paintings are different from last time. Now check the bottom left
portrait
of the lady and two Dahlings will attack you, defeat them and a door
will
replace their portrait. Enter through to the next room and head
downstairs,
here in this room a portrait will attack you and you will have to
fight off
against a SoulDancr and four Wild Cat(s).
After defeating them head to
the left door up top to pick up a MOOGLE SUIT
and then head for the right
door. Here head straight up and go behind the
three doors to pick up a RELIC
RING. Here the three doors will open and close
and only one of them will open
at a time. Ignore the two doors on the right
and head for the left door and
continue on through to the room with the
floating treasure chests. Try to
reach for them and a battle will ensue.
The treasure chest include 2000
GP which is guarded by a Soul Dancr and four
Wild Cats, a POTION which is
also guarded by a Soul Dancr and four Wild Cats,
an ETHER which is also guarded
again by a Soul Dancr and four Wild Cats, and
finally a REMEDY which is once
again gaurded by a Soul Dancr and four Wild
Cats. After picking those treasure
chests up check the middle painting a a
fight against a StillLife will ensue,
defeat it and a door will replace the
portrait, and enter through to the next
room.
In this next room there are two doors and a save point, save your
game and
heal your wounds. Now enter the door on the right and talk to Owzer,
he tells
you that there is a monster inside the painting and that the party
cannot
attack the painting because it means too much to Owzer, then Relm is
startled
by the presence of Chadarnook who came out of the painting.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BOSS
BATTLE: Chadarnook HP: 30,000(each)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This
boss is extremely tough. He will use Phantasm on the party which is
sorta
like a poison attack that constantly drains your HP. Lose him a few HP
and
he will change form and this form will use Bolt 2 and Bolt 3. So if you
have
a THUNDER SHLD or AEGIS SHLD equipped that shouldn't be much of a
problem.
Have Cyan use his SwdTech, have Sabin use his Suplex or Pummel, have
Edgar
use his Drill, have Setzer use his Slot attack, have Gau use anyone of
his
Rage attacks, and have Terra and Celes use magic or attack as normal.
After
the battle Relm tells the party to relax and Owzer thanks the party for
saving
the painting in which he thinks is more precious than his own life.
The monster
was in the portrait because Owzer had bought a stone from the
auction house
and he suddenly felt like painting a picture of a Starlet, but
he could never
paint it since it was out of his league, but then he found
Relm, whose artistic
abilities surpassed those of anybody Owzer has ever seen
in his life.
He
then tells you that the stone is over by the bookshelf, so check the
bookshelf
and you will recieve the Magicite Starlet in which Owzer is more
than happy
to get rid of. Relm then decides to leave and she tells Owzer that
she will
be back to finish the painting. Now head back to your airship and
head towards
the giant star shaped mountain in the middle of the world map,
a top the southern
continent.
