Here this scenario takes place
where it last left off. The
party still rides the rapids
and also more battles have to
be fought. After a short battle
the party arrives at Narche
and just in the nick of time.
When the party reaches inside
Narche guards block their path,
Banon tries to settle them down
but they knock him out. Edgar
tells them that he is king but
they don't believe him and knock
him out as well. Each time you
try to go through the guards
will just knock you back, but
remember the secret passage
that Locke told you to remember
about when he got Terra out?
Head towards that area, its
to the very left if you had
forgotten.
As you make your way
to the next cave there will
be a light that goes a certain
path. You will have to go that
exact path to escape the security
checkpoint, so have you been
taking your Ginkoba? It will
take a few tries since due to
the fact that its a pretty complex
path to remember. Once through
head for the old man's house
from earlier in the game, but
you are welcomed to stop by
the moogle's cave if you want
to. In the moogle's cave don't
forget to pick up the RUNE EDGE,
then leave because there isn't
much you can do here now. Head
for the old man's house and
inside you will get a bit of
info of what has been happening
around Narche.
Its neutral for now and
many people haven't really wanted
to side with the Returners.
The town has gone a bit worst
about the Esper, but Banon thinks
Terra can reach out to the Esper.
However Edgar has second thoughts,
either the Esper will help them
or dig them an early grave.
It appears that Narche is the
next target of the Empire since
Emperor Gestahl is after Magitek
power he will be interested
in the Esper. Then Sabin, Cyan,
and Gau comes in and greets
the party, after a briefing
about Doma Locke and Celes come
in and rush to tell the party
that Narche is about to be attacked.
But Cyan becomes very
angry as he recognizes Celes
as she was the one who burned
down Maranda, but Locke won't
allow Cyan to do so. Terra also
reveals to Cyan that she was
also once an general of the
Empire. Then suddenly a guard
comes in and tells the entire
party that Kefka has already
begun his assault on Narche.
The scene shifts to Kefka's
army, the soldiers question
a lot about his actions towards
Narche since it is neutral and
there are civilians living in
Narche, but Kefka doesn't care
he wants everyone dead.
The scene shifts back
to the party, it appears that
they left the esper at the top
of the hills. They go after
it to defend it, but along the
way Celes and Terra have a small
conversation, and Celes thinks
being bron with magic is such
an incredible gift. Celes can
also use magic because when
she was just a baby she was
artificially infused with magic
and was raised as a Magitek
Knight. Terra asks if Celes
has ever loved anyone, but Celes
doesn't know what she is talking
about. Cyan however still has
a lot of doubt about Celes.
Now when the entire party reaches the top of the hills of Narche you will
have to form 3 parties with your 7 party members. Your job is to not only
defend the Esper but Banon as well. If the army reaches Banon then you will
have to start over again. You will have to fight a lot of battles, probably
about 20 battles to beat them all. But you can reach Kefka without having to
destroy his entire army. When you reach Kefka make sure you have Gau in your
party and then talk to him to initiate the fight.
After the battle the party
goes for the Esper, Terra senses
something from the esper as
the entire party but Terra is
knocked out. Terra communicates
with the esper and asks a few
questions about who she is.
Then the esper reveals Terra's
true nature, she flies off wildly
into the skies. Celes tells
Locke that Terra looked like
an esper, but Edgar knows that
they have to find her. Now you
must form two parties, one to
look for Terra and the other
to stay guard and protect the
esper. Afterwards head west
to look for Terra otuside of
Narche.
