5.1 E D E A ' S A G O O D L A D Y ! ?
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Now Squall will be back lying on his bed in the Dormitory. Next he
will head and look at the injured Rinoa and then Quistis will inform
Squall to head for Edea's house which is the building with lighthouse.
You can now get to the World Map through the Central Gate or through
the controls. Either way will result you, forming a new party however
you can't have Rinoa in your party at this moment of time.
Now enter the house on the left of that island [it's with the
lighthouse]. Now you will head up to the building and you will find
the rest of your party members outside house. The house seems have
been damaged and been abandoned for a long time. Now head up and enter
the house.
You will find an item on the ground [it's the Timber Magazine]. Next
enter the room located at the north and draw some magic from the magic
stone located there. Now head back and enter the right side which will
causes you to meet Cid. Now head right and you will meet Edea along
with her husband....
Here is some great news. You can win Edea's Card along with Seifer's
Card by winning a Card game from Cid and Edea. Edea will tell you about
something and here is the scoop:
SCOOP: A witch named Altemisia from the future always want the power
to compress time [i.e. allowing people in the past, the present
and the future to live in the same time] She's searching for
someone whom have some memories of the past, Elone. Rinoa could
be the person for the present. Edea tries to refuse it but as
in a result, was forced in the process.. Edea thinks the only
solution is to prevent Elone from being captured by that evil
witch... for Elone has mysterious powers.
Just simply talk to Edea about 4 times and then attempt to exit and you
will be called back by Edea and your party. Next you will be back to
the Controls of Balamb Garden, 3rd Floor.
PS: You can get another copy of the Weapon Upgrading Guide at the
Training Center [enter the left door where you find the materials.]
Search the ground, it's somewhere around there.
5.2. S W I T C H I N G B A C K T O T H E P A S T
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
After regaining control of Squall, have two persons in mind and have
G.Fs equipped especially the Shiva. Next head for the infirmary where
Rinoa is. Now time will be transported to the past....
Before that you will have a party change like whom is representing
whom in the past. Squall, of course is going to represent as Laguna and
have those two characters represent as Kiros and Ward.
Now Laguna, along with his bundies, Kiros and Ward are doing their
prepartions for a play. Ward and Kiros are asked to dress as the evil
Dragon and thus make their prepartions....
Now Laguna will enter the stage dressed as shining Knight armed with
a sword. Now Laguna head forward towards the princess and the director
after some conversation, a gigantic red dragon appears and head down
the slopes. Laguna thought that the dragon is Kiros and Ward in
disguise but he is mistaken, it is a real Rubulmdragon! Now you have
another sub-game, a sword fighting game!
MINI-GAME : Laguna's a dragon-slayer !
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
================== Square : Defend
-----Controls----- X : Attack
==================
NOTE: Laguna's Life Bar will be shown at the low-left corner, while the
Rubulmdragon's Life Bar is at the low-right corner.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
========================= S T R A T E G Y =============================
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Similar to the last sub game you have at Balamb Garden, you will be
forced to take some damage. Laguna is not fighting the Dragon with his
machine gun but a knight sword. This sub-game is pretty simple. Just
simply return fire after the Dragon has attacked. As the Dragon attack
Laguna, hold Square and Laguna will defend thus recieving no damage.
It's just a piece of cake ! Well if you are defeated, choose the 1st
option to resume the game.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
After you have completed the mini-game, Laguna will head down but he
was trapped ! Luckily, Kiros and Ward came to his rescue, then you will
have two options. The first one will FIGHT the dragon instantly, but
note that neither Kiros and Ward were equipped with G.Fs, so take note.
Choose 2nd option which will result Laguna and his party to run. Next
you will need to head left. In the first screen, you will find a Save
Point, so head up and until you reach the top of the cliff. Now head
back down, note that you will encounter random battles and fight the
sub-boss, he's a bit tough.
#######################################################################
SUB-BOSS NO. 2 R U B Y D R A G O N
#######################################################################
Name: Ruby dragon Level: 28 HP: 18,468
Attacks: Bite, Claw Swipe, Dragon Breath.
Facts: Weak vs Cold/Holy, Nullifies wind and fire-based attacks
Draw: Wind, Fire 2
AP gained: 14 AP
==================
-----Strategy-----
==================
This guy is much tougher compared to the T-Rex. He has pretty high-
damaging attacks about 500+ HP damage. Next what you draw from the
BOSS cannot be use to fight AGAINST him. Use Shiva [hopefully you have
accquired the Aid Command] and Alexandar to dish out damage. Use other
G.Fs too except for Pandamonium and Ifrit. Use Cerebrus for fast-
casting of spells. The BOSS has a Dragon Breath which does damage to
all members. You can get the Dragon Fang by using Bundoru on it.
#######################################################################
After defeating the BOSS, Laguna and his pals will be watching over the
evening sun, then the screen will fade... Next you will be back with
Laguna talking Edea ? Next you will be back to Squall and his party.
Now heal your characters to full health and you need to head for the
SeeD ship which Elone is on board. SAVE Your game.
5.3 E L O N E C O M M I T S S U I C I D E . . . .
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
After completing Laguna's 4th Scenario. Head back to Edea's house. She
will tell you about the location of the White SeeD ship. Then she will
give you a letter. Next head northeast a bit and you will be able to
locate the ship, somewhere in Sentra Region. You will find the ship
docked at C-shaped Island, in the middle of islands. Make contact
with the ship and your characters will be boarding onto the ship.
NOTE: The ship is located in between the islands north-east from Edea's
house. It is much smaller compared to Balamb Garden.
ON THE SHIP...
As you entered the ship, you will meet 3 White SeeD cadets. At the
front of the ship, you will find a female SeeD girl and 2 kids. There
is nothing. Head for the back cabin. There you will meet two familiar
faces, that's punky guy and the guy wearing a cap. The stairs will
lead to controls of the ship. Next head for the cabin, the bottom
most stairs. You will find a SeeD cadet and followed by a sequence.
There is a Magic Stone here in this area. Next talk to the guy and
note the sad music in the background. Now you will have a sequence
about Elone commiting suicide at the front of the ship. Next you will
be back at the Controls of Balamb Garden. Remember to grab the last
copy of the Timber Magazine on the White SeeD ship! The use of them
are described in Part II.
Head for the Dormitory and save your game. Next head for the Infirmary
where you will find Rinoa. Now you will have another sequence that's
Squall taking Rinoa to Fishermen's Horizon [F.H city]. Head right and
the screen will fade. Now Squall will be carrying Rinoa on his back,
walking through that quiet and peaceful street. The moment he stopped
and he will enjoy the scenery of the evening sun. Once you regained
control of Squall, examine Rinoa and you will have Squall carrying
Rinoa forward again. You will meet Quistis and Zell at the train
station. Next guess who is coming.. it's Edea! Irvine and Selphie will
come towards you next you need to head for a place. Then you will have
to reform your party with Edea is in your party [not compulsory
character]. Now you will be back at the World Map on the south-eastern
continent of the map. SAVE your game.
5.4. A V A D O N ' S H I D E O U T
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Now head for the snowfield which is on the right. Then you will be
asked to set a new party with Edea [again she is not a compulsory
character.] Next head up through that snowfield, with Squall carrying
Rinoa. Now you should be at the screen with that dinosaur skeleton.
Instead of walking forward, climb up the skeleton on the right. Just
simply walk up, no need to press Circle. Next you will be at the
screen with the dinosaur's bone forming as a bridge. Examine the south
area for hidden Magic Stone. Next head up the "bridge". Next you will
be at the edge of the cliff and there is another Magic Stone. Next go
to the edge and press Circle to jump down. Now the rest will follow
suit, head up to the next area. You will be on the ledge. Make a right
turn. There is a Save Point in the area. Head left twice and you will
see a gigantic monster jumping from below, it's a BOSS fight.
#######################################################################
BOSS NO. 17 A V A D O N
#######################################################################
Name: Avadon Level: 32 HP: 16,010
Attacks: Claw grab, Claw swipe, Confu
Facts: Weak against Holy/Fire
Draw: Heal 3, Cure, Despell, Aero
AP gained: 40
==================
-----Strategy-----
==================
This BOSS looks very scary and has very powerful attacks which does
about 800+ damage, bringing low characters to instant death. Draw
Heal 3 and use it on the BOSS and it will be dead meat! Your attacks
are puny useless and pretty weak. Use this method if you have not
accquired Leviathan's Recovery. The BOSS will turn into stone before
it's death.
Alternate method [RECOMMENDED]
If you have accquired Leviathan's Recovery command, you can defeat the
BOSS with just two hits as one will do 9999 HP damage to the BOSS. It
will be dead meat in no time.
#######################################################################
After the BOSS fight, head right and you will hear something sound
associated with electricity. Just face north and examine it. Then it
will releases a electric force field. Then it will release a hidden
ladder, next press Up and you will be in a new area.
Now head northeast, don't worry there is no random battles here. Next
examine the panel on the left, pick the first option and you can have
some fun with the screen on the left. Take the northeast path and enter
the door. Next you will enter the elevator [PS: it has no walls!].
Talk to your members. Then head up and the elevator will shake. Now
Squall will put down Rinoa on the ground and there is a short
conversation with your party. Next a hexagon door will reveal in the
north. Enter it and you will have an FMV.
** FMV **
Squall and his fellow members will enter the legendary Esthar Captial.
Then you will view the opening of the gate of the city and Squall and
his members being transported into the city.
Then you will see Squall and his party start to collapse and you will
be shown the screen to see whom is replacing whom in Laguna's Fifth
Scenario.
5.5 L U N A T I C P A N D O R A R E S E A R C H C E N T E R
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Now the screen will switches to Laguna and his pals at the research
center. Next you will find Kiros and Ward moving away from the spot.
Now talk to the miner on the bottom right hand corner. Next talk to the
miner at the entrance of the cabin which Kiros and Ward has entered.
Next talk to the Mumba and talk to man at the panel. Return and talk to
Mumba again and have a sequence. Next Laguna has to fight a miner by
himself, one on one. Next you will have an FMV of the elevator coming
down. Laguna will try to block off the miner's way thus letting Mumba
and the man to enter the elevator. Next Kiros and Ward will come here,
followed by another miner. Now you will be given two options:
1st Option: Equip G.Fs. By the way, I forgot to tell you that
every time you switches to Laguna, both Kiros and Ward
will have only the ATTACK command. Choose this option
and then choose option 2. Anyway, this is also Laguna's
last scenario.
2nd Option: Fight them instantly.
You will fight more enemies [3 of them, 2 miners and a robot]. Now
head for elevator and you will find two research assistants. Head
up the stairs on the right QUIETLY (Laguna and his party does not
want to be discovered!) Next you will meet the man and the Mumba.
Next, one of the assistants will come up. Now draw some magic from the
Magic Stone and save your game. Now return to the building. There, you
can get the last version of the Weapon Upgrading Manual at the south-
left corner. Next head back to the elevator. Approaches Professor
Odain and you will have another battle against those guys.
After defeating them, follow him to the elevator and head right. Now
you find a pretty cool flying car [in the future?], next Laguna and
friends will enter the car. Now your aim to save Elone. You will now
be at the research center where Elone is being held captive. Walk up
and you have to fight more miners or Esthar Soldiers. Defeat them and
draw some magic from the magic stone on the top right hand corner.
Now head check the seat on the middle, it's actually a portable
elevator, pick the first option and you will reach the second floor.
Now examine the left side of the door and you will find another Magic
Stone. Now enter the door and fight two more Esthar Soldiers. After
defeating them examine the huge blue screen in front. Now you will
find young Elone there. Next examine those panels on the right under

head up the door and you will find Elone, following by an event....
5.6 E S T H E R : A H U G E C I T Y !

a flying car. Talking during the journey to the huge city.
At the high-polished building, you will have a sequence. Talk to
everyone and head south, next you will be asked to head for the Luna's
Gate. Now exit the building and turn right. Board the elevator and you
will have an FMV of elevator going down, exit from this area.
Now in this huge city, you surely need a map for entering. So how
should we go. Elevators are very important, as walking for such long
distances can be tiring. The left path leads to the door where you find
soldiers guarding it.Head right and board the elevator and followed by
an FMV of the elevator moving into the city. Here is the map of city.

#######################################################################
Now head for the Tear's Point, which is located at the south-east of
the World Map from the city. Make sure you have accquired the stealing
ability from the Diablo. If not try to gain some levels. SAVE your
game. Well that's all for the time being, watch for the next update.
By the way, it is safer to drive a car! [Note that you can't get into
any random battles through driving a car.]
Now exit the city and head to the outskirts of the city. Next head
south-east of the continent of the World Map. It's called the Tear's
Point. Next examine the Magic Stone along the path and head up. Now
in front of the statue, examine the Magic Stone and pick up the
Solmon's Ring. Next you need to steal Molbor Tentacles with the
Diablo's Bundoru character ability. After you reach the requirements
shown in the table below, you will be able to summon the Grasharaboras
by using the Soloman's Ring.
_______________________________________________________________________
| | QUANTITY | Name of ITEM |
| |__________|_______________________|
|===================================| 1x | Soloman's Ring |
|REQUIREMENTS FOR G.F. GRASHARABORAS| 6x | Remedy Plus |
|===================================| 6x | Iron Pipe |
| | 6x | Molbor's Tentacle |
|___________________________________|__________|_______________________|
Due to many questions regarding the Doomtrain
The Remedy can be brought from shops except for Soloman's Ring and
Molbor's tentacles. Here is information on getting materials.
Molbor's : A giantic green-monster with huge mouth, a huge plant with
tentacles very high HP. It has an attack [Bad Breath] which will
cause all status aliments like Confuse,Berserk, Poison,
Darkness and Blind. So be careful about it. This gigantic
monster is pretty strong. By the way, it has a low
occurence rate baout 1/10 chance if you ask me. You will
not find any more Molbors here after getting Ragnarok.
It can be found at the Island of Hell after recieving
Ragnarok. So it's critical to meet them at here before you
head for the space station. The island closest to Heaven
is marked on the northwest area of the World Map. You can
find the world map at my webpage. It's possible to win
Molbor tentacles without stealing from them. [JUNK]
Iron Pipe: You can find these defeated those green-yellow gorillas
found at the hills of Galbadia, using Bundoru to steal
from it. Sorry about the misleading information, as you
will get Iron Spheres by defeating them. [G.F]
Remedy Plus: Firstly, you must have accquired the Alexandar ability of
Medicine Level Up to upgrade Remedy. 1x Remedy Plus is
equalvent to 10x Remedies! [need to spend 60,000 gil]
Remedy used for curing and removing status aliments like
Poison, Confuse, Berserk. [MEDICINE]
NOTE: Esthar will be infested by devils from the Hell, due to Rinoa
releasing the future witch and the surrounding will turns
slightly red, so that explains why you can't find any Molbors
there any more.
The World Map can also be found at my homepage. Refer to it for
more details.
After obtaining this following requirements, just use the Solomon Ring
and you will summon Grasharaboras! This is rather time consuming, but
it is worth it.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Next head for Lunar Gate, it's north from Tear's point. The most
distinguise feature is the platform for blasting off rockets. Now head
there and enter it. Next enter the building. At the building, follow
the lady, you meet someone, not a person... it's Angelo. Next Squall
will confront Angelo, next enter the place where you found the space

Head back to the captial and head left twice, crossing the street with
the red pipe that's has been written "LEFT SIDE" and "RIGHT SIDE". Next
head down when you come to the elevator junction. Draw some magic from
the magic stone and head for the Research center. Talk to the guy at
the entrance, picking 1st option and enter the building. Now you should
be familiar as you are back to the place where Laguna has come to
during the 5th Scenario. Next board the elevator and enter the controls
room where you find Odain. Now talk to Odain and he will brief you
about the Pandora...
The Pandora will pass through the city and launch three attacks. You
need to stop them. They will come to the following places:
ATTACK SPOT NO. 1: A Street where you will find the bird eye's view
of the city. Time: 15:00 ~ 12:00 [4] on the map.
ATTACK SPOT NO. 2: The place where you will find the intersection of
the streets. Time: 10:00 ~ 05:00 [9] on the map.
ATTACK SPOT NO. 3: The place where you will find the construction
works. Time: 03:00 ~ 00:00 [12] on the map.
These spots are where the place where you will find the Lunatic
Pandora. So head back to the city. Now you need to head for Attack Spot
No.1. You will find a time-bar which will tell you the time. So head
right until you reach the central gate. Next take the path heading

the shuttle, Ka-Boom!
Next Elone will come out and has a flashback...
Rinoa is on a Galbadian Truck with Irvine, a very funny sequence and
followed by the talk with Zell at Balamb Garden. Next you will have
the sequence after you have defeat Edea at the end of Disc 2. Rinoa
has been possessed by the witch from the future... and you will have
a long event.
Here is the summary of the event:
Rinoa starts to float past through the space. As time passes, Rinoa is
floating closer and closer. Next you will have a couple of FMVs of
Rinoa regaining her consicious after her pendant floats up. She starts
to think of Squall and operate her oxygen tank.. actually this is in
Squall's mind.
Squall started to exit from his chamber and help Rinoa and head out of
the escape pod and reaches for Rinoa. Next you will have a mini-game of
Squall catching Rinoa, which is about 2 minutes to catch Rinoa.. Just
simply position her in the middle of the screen and press X to secure
the position You will be automatically reunited with Rinoa after you

Q. How do I defeat those Ailens at the Ragnarok
A. Well, this is quite simple. You will not encounter any random
battles here. Firstly you must defeat those ailens with the same
colour first. Let's says if you have defeated the Purple Ailen in
the main compound, you must then fight the Purple Ailen at the other
side [refer to map]. If you did not, they will regenrate and you
will fight them all over and again. Certain Magic Stones will appear
after you have defeated them. There are 4 kinds of aliens and they
are different in colours and there are two of the same kind.
**********************************************************************
After that wonderful and romantic song, you will be now controlling
Ragnarok and will be landed on the sandy area. There you will meet
the people of Esthar including Professor Odain's assistant. Next Rinoa
will leave. Head back to Ragnarok and enter the meeting room [the place
where you find the controls, marked "C"] There you will find Irvine,
and the rest except for Edea and Rinoa. After some conversation, you
find Selphie and Irvine moving out. Once you approaches Quistis, the
ground will shake, because Ragnarok has landed off from the ground.
Now head for the controls room and you will find Selphie as the pilot.
Now you will be back at the World Map. Here are the controls of
Ragnarok.

head for the Witch's Museum. Now enter
the Museum. Next head up the stairs and there is a Save Point in this
area. Talk to the Esthar Soldiers at the gate and they will allow you
to enter the musemum. Next you find Rinoa, being trapped inside a
chamber and the scientist are testing her whether is she a witch or
not. Next your members will try to stop them and thus giving Squall a
chance to stop them. Next head left and approached the captured Rinoa
you will have an FMV:
** FMV **
Rinoa is finally being released by her lover, Squall and they will
hug each other and thus leaving the Museum. [isn't this similar to FMV
in the beginning of the game, just as there is some difference in the
background.]
Now with Rinoa back in your hands, head to the entrance and you will
be allowed to leave, next your party will be asked by Rinoa to head to
Edea's house. You will find Angelo in front of the house. Next enter
Edea's house and look for Edea, after talking to both of them, exit.
Now exit and you will find Angelo and follow it, next your party
members will leave and Rinoa comes in. Meanwhile, Zell will report to
you that Esthar has been underattack and the President of Esthar
want to see you. Next exit and you find Edea talking to Squall.
Head for Esthar Captial where you will meet the President. By the way
the President of Esthar has defeated the Witch from the future 13 years
ago. Now head to the captial city. Now enter the city through the
air station and keep on walking Up and head for the main compound.
Next enter the elevator marked on the map. Now head for the mansion,
and go to the screen left twice and you find 2 Esthar Soldiers at the
gate and talk to them and you will be allowed to meet the President.
As Squall enter the room, he found Ward... and Kiros... Just walked
forward and you found out that the President is actually Laguna Loire.
Can't believe the way, that a President of a such huge city will
dressed in such a simple manner. Next talk to Laguna, pick the 1st
option and here come Professor Odain! Talk for quite a long time and
here is the scoop:
Elone has been held captive at the Pandora. Laguna wishes that Squall
could lend a hand and helped him to save Elone, to prevent Time
Compression from occuring. And must tried to prevent Altemisia from
being reborn, she is that huge thing which Rinoa has unlocked. Next
you be asked to launch an attack on the Lunatic Pandora.
5.11 L U N A T I C P A N D O R A
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Now Laguna and his pals are at the meeting room of the Ragnarok. After
a conversation with them, the rest of the members will leave. Lastly
Squall will leave. Selphie and Zell will be driving the Ragnarok and
your party will be consists of Zell, Squall and Rinoa. Attack!
The Lunatic Pandora is located on the top of the Tears Point where you
get the Soloman's Ring. Now make contact and the screen will switches
to Squall and his friends at the Ragnarok. Then you will have an FMV:
** FMV **
The Ragnarok fires it's heat-seeking missiles at the Pandora and
started charge through breaking the force-field. Next it will grab
onto the walls with it's claws.
Talk to Selphie if you want to head back. Now enter the place...through

==================
-----STRATEGY-----
==================
Both Raijin and Fuujin are much stronger compared to the previous
fight. They have new spells and much powerful. Don't draw and release
Tornado as Fuujin will be healed in the process. Concentrate on
attacking Fuujin as she has some very difficult spells. Make sure your
HP are above 3000+ as Fuujin could cast Meteor. Use G.F. Grasharaboras
as they are weak against Poison. Cast Cerebrus and followed by Shield
all [reduce magical damage] and Barrier-all [reduce physical damage]
Do not use G.Fs Queztalcoatl and Pandamonium. Use Leviathan's Recovery
to restore lost health and use your special moves.
#######################################################################
After defeating those two funkies, exit from this area. Head up and
make a left turn, there you will meet Biggs and Wedge, talking to
them. Don't worry there are no battles, as they are sick of fighting
you. Now enter the building [there is a Save Point somewhere near the
building]. Next you will be on the path which leads to the second
elevator. Next head for the 02 elevator. Draw some magic and you have
been here. Next head up. If you have accquired the Discover Hidden

==================
This BOSS can be said to be most difficult guy in Disc 3 while at the
Pandora. It has a couple of death seeking attacks. The Fallen shone
will reduce everyone's HP to 1 and it has other very tough looking
attacks. The BOSS can dish out a couple of damage. Use all attacking
G.Fs. Cast Cerebrus and cast Heal 3 to restore back lost HP after the
BOSS has unleashes it's Fallen Shone. This BOSS can be rather easily
if you have used Queztalcoatl with the G.F. Aid .
#######################################################################
Restore all your HP and prepared for Disc 3 final-showdown. Enter the
building and you will find Seifer on the top of the pillar, bragging
about his ability. Elone is being held captive by those two groupies,
Fuujin and Raijin. After some talk, they will leave and you will fight
Seifer. Prepared for the last battle with Seifer.

Attacks: Sword swipe, Fire 3, Fire-all cross-slash.
Facts: Weal vs. Poison.
Draw: Fire 3, Bolt 3, Ice 3, Aura
AP gained: 40
==================
-----Strategy-----
==================
He is not tough, in fact the lousiest BOSS of all Disc 3. You want to
why, because you can drawn the Aura spell and use it for yourself. Use
your finishing moves and give him a ticket to Planet Doom. ^_^
By the way, use Leviathan's Recovery and restore lost HP. Use Phoenix
Down or Life to revive dead members. By the way, use G.Fs such as the
Grasharaboras as he pretty weak against it. Seifer's finishing move
does damage to all members.
GIGLAMESH contributed by Steven Bruck
If you have accquired Odin, you will see the last of him, being cut
into half by the "powerful" Seifer. After you have defeat Seifer, Odin
will no longer exists but has transformed into the Gilgamesh and
finished off Seifer.
#######################################################################
Well that's is the end of Seifer Almasy.... not really. After the
battle, Rinoa will start to move away.. Suddenly Seifer awakes and
kidnapped Rinoa! Seifer hold Rinoa as hostage and head for the chamber
where the unawaken Adel is.... End of Disc 3.
