Now keep going southwest until you find a giant desert and the Castle of
Figaro should be right in the middle of the desert. Inside make your way to
the middle of the castle and find the king as the guards will not allow you
admitance to any other parts of the castle as they tell you to go see the
king. When you reach the king Locke tells a little about her to the king and
he gives a quick and rather seductively dumbfounded look at her, Terra gets a
bit angry and the king apologizes.
"The young king of Figaro Castle, ally to the Empire, and a master designer
of machinery..."
Here you will be given the chance to name your character, but don't name him
anything stupid, just give him Dingo or Edgar. Surprised that someone like
Locke knows royalty? The king doesn't care if Terra is an imperial soldier,
the kingdom of Figaro and the Empire are allies. There are three reasons why
Edgar is helping Terra, "First of all, your beauty has captivated me!"
"Second...I'm dying to know if I'm your type..." "I guess
your...abilities...would be a distant 3rd." Terra still doesn't know what
Edgar is talking about, she knows a normal girl would find him dashing, but
she's hardly normal.
Now is your chance to wander around the castle, don't forget to pick up a
PHEONIXDOWN, TONIC, SOFT, and a ANTIDOTE. When you talk to the Matron in the
castle he tells you that Edgar had a twin brother, the scene flashes back to
Edgar's recent pass not that much long ago as the two talk about his father's
successor. Edgar refuses to talk about it:
"Edgar's twin brother, who traded the throne for his own freedom..."
Now is your chance to name the twin brother of Edgar, go with the default so
you can follow this walkthrough a bit more easier. It appears that Sabin has
ran away now and the Matron wonders what he is up to right now. Also when you
check the dungeon do you recognize anybody down there? Yes its the Lone Wolf
from Final Fantasy V! After checking the castle out and GETTING A GOOD
NIGHT'S REST talk to Edgar in his throne room, and in the middle of the
conversation one of the members from the Empire are here to see King Edgar,
probably Kefka!
The scene shifts towards Kefka, he's a wierd guy and hates Edgar for living
in the middle of nowhere and he has sand on his boots, but the imperial
soldiers quickly wipe his boots clean. HEre have Edgar talk to the soldiers
before talking to Kefka. IT appears that Kefka wants a girl of no importance
to return back to the empire and he heard that she has found refuge in Figaro
Castle. Edgar knows who he is talking about, but Kefka denies it and says she
stole something of minor value. Edgar doesn't know if she is here or not
since there are more girls here than grains of sand, and Kefka warns him that
he better pray for his precious Figaro Castle.
After Kefka leaves go back and talk with Locke, Edgar tells Locke to show
Terra to her room as he has some strategic strategies that needs to be dealt
with. So have Terra follow Locke to her room. She finally knows his name
which is Locke, and it appears that Edgar has told Terra that he was a thief.
That's Treasure Hunter! Superficial wise, Edgar is allies with the Empire but
on the inside he is collaborating with the Returners, a small organization
opposed to the Empire. Terra doesn't understand what she should do, but Locke
comforts her. But how will Terra know which is the right way? The scene then
shifts to Edgar, he rushes outside and sees the castle on fire and it was the
Empire's doing.
Here Kefka enters in he wants the girl now, but Edgar pretends to not know
what Kefka is talking about. Now talk to the soldier at the top and Edgar
tells him to get ready, Kefka wonders if he has changed his mind yet and it
appears that he has no choice, then quickly rushes and calls his chocobos and
he tells Locke and Terra to jump. The castle is slowly sinking down into the
sand and Kefka is a bit wounded but nonetheless fine. He orders his men to
attack the party.
After the battle they escape
and Kefka is a bit pissed off.
Terra seems a bit scared of
Kefka, but Edgar has someone
who he wants her to meet. Their
mentor Banon would certainly
want to meet Terra as "Magic"
is going to be the key to winning
this war. No human is ever born
with these powers as Terra stops
to think. Edgar apologizes and
tells her that if the Empire
captures her again the world
is done for. Then he tells him
to head for the South Figaro
cave. Here you will notice the
amazing power the SNES has in
terms of graphics in which you
will see a semi-3-D view of
the world map. Head for the
cave south of Figaro Castle
to the South Figaro cave. When
you enter the cave, Edgar tells
the soldier to go back to the
castle and tell everyone that
he and the party are safe.
