Terra, Locke, and King Edgar arrive at South Figaro, where they resupply and head north through the mountains toward the Returner hideout. On the way, they meet up with Edgar’s long lost brother, Sabin, who has trained extensively in the martial arts. They arrive at the Returner hideout without incident.<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

Meanwhile…<\/p>\n

Following the conquest of Doma, Emperor Gestahl orders the main force of his army to reinforce Kefka’s expeditionary force in South Figaro. An informant in the capitol betrays the city, allowing Kefka to occupy the whole of the country.<\/p>\n

Soon, however, Kefka becomes bored again.<\/p>\n

Following the lead of Imperial spies in Mobliz, Gestahl orders General Leo to investigate the island of Thamasa. According to the spies, an obscure clan of magic users inhabits the island, and Gestahl wants to discover the secrets of their powers.<\/p>\n

At the last minute, Kefka boards the ship and joins the force, much to General Leo’s dismay. The noble general prefers to peaceably conquer the defenseless village, but Kefka orders the troops to use force:<\/em><\/p>\n

KEFKA: I don’t care for the appearance of this pitiful little
\nhamlet… So burn it!!<\/p>\n

LEO: Kefka! No!<\/p>\n

KEFKA: Shut up!<\/p>\n

Thamasa is destroyed. Some escape; many do not. Among the dead is a precious little girl, barely ten years old, still clutching her cherished paintbrush…<\/em><\/p>\n

Mafia kills PharaohsQueen, an innocent.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the returner hideout, Terra meets Bannon, who urges her to join them in the resistance against the Empire…<\/em><\/p>\n

BANON: Perhaps you’ve heard this story? Once, when people were pure
\nand innocent, there was a box they were told never to open. But one
\nman went and opened it anyway. He unleashed all the evils of the
\nworld: envy… greed… pride… violence… control… All that
\nwas left in the box was a single ray of light: Hope.<\/p>\n

TERRA: ……<\/p>\n

BANON: We now confront those evils… And you are that last ray of
\nlight, our only hope…<\/p>\n

TERRA: Hope… How can anyone put their hope in me?<\/p>\n

BANON: I understand your unease. But even as we speak, innocent lives are
\nbeing lost… Please. We need your abilities.<\/p>\n

Terra asks for some time to think it over. While the others wait for her to make a decision, she scopes out the Returner hideout for Imperial agents. Finding none, she accepts Banon’s offer and joins the resistance!<\/em><\/p>\n

Detective checks an innocent.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Thamasa is not forgotten. A man in black, running from a dark past, remembers the last time he left this place…<\/em><\/p>\n

INTERCEPTOR: Woof! Woof!<\/p>\n

SHADOW: You came to fetch me… But I won’t be coming back… I want
\nyou, and the girl, to live in a peaceful world…<\/p>\n

Upon finding Relm’s dead body, Shadow goes into a blind rage. Blaming the girl’s grandfather for her untimely death, he hunts the old man down. Strago is found in the morning with a shuriken buried in his heart.<\/em><\/p>\n

Assassin kills Zeromoon17, an innocent.<\/span><\/p>\n
