Bringing peace to the world every step of the way. The World Of Balance:
Narshe
The beginning:

You begin with Vicks, Wedge, and ????? (Terra). You are attacked by Narshe's guards and dogs (no problem). Keep going until you get to the mines. This would be a good time to save. Next head north, where a guard will send Whelk out to attack you.

Whelk: DON'T attack the shell. Attack the head. Have ????? use the TekMissle and have Vicks and Wedge use Ice Beam. Only set up for one attack. Whelk will Gruu into its shell. This would be the best time to cure the party. When he returns, hit the head again. 2 rounds should defeat him. Head north.

Now you're at the esper. it glows, and zaps Vicks & Wedge. It glows around Terra. The next scene she's in a bed being cared for by Arvis. This is where she remembers her name. Now the guards are at the door. Terra escapes out the back and into the mines. But she's caught and falls down a cliff to the next floor. She has a dream about Kefka putting the slave crown on her head.

Locke: Locke is now introduced. Arvis tells him to go help Terra in the mines. He goes in, but is surrounded by guards. KUPO!

Moogles: The moogles help Locke out. You're now in 3 groups. First, un-equip Mog, and give Locke the Mithril Shield to help. Use basically normal attacks. When you get to marshal, depending on the group you have. have Locke try to steal a Mithril Knife to help out. For Mog, have him do the Dusk Requiem. One poison frog WILL kill him.

Locke takes Terra outside, and promises to protect her. They go see King Edgar at Figaro castle. Be careful, as the desert has mean monsters. Don't forget to buy the Noise Blaster and Bio Blaster as they will come in handy. Once talking to Edgar go down 2 and go into the left room. Go down the stairs and go outsid Go left. Terra is where the Chancellor is, where you learn more about Edgar's brother Sabin. Return to the throne room. Edgar will have a visitor. It's Kefka.

Kefka: Kefka wants the girl (Terra) Edgar says he's never seen her. Kefka knows he's lying. He leaves, and Locke takes Terra to a room.

Edgar wakes up that night seeing the castle up in flames. He, Locke, and Terra escapes on chocobos. Kefka sends 2 Magi-tek Armors after them. If you bought the noise blaster, use it. It's very helpful. Equip Edgar with the Mithril Pike you got from Mog after un-equiping. Have Locke steal (I love using that). Terra should attack if they are not confused. If she uses magic, there'll be a long scene about Edgar and Locke discovering her magic. After that, she can use the magic all she wants without the scene. This isn;t a real lengthy battle.

Edgar and Locke convince Terra to go with them to see Banon. Use the chocobo to go south to the cave of Figaro. Enter, fight monsters, but you may want to leave the treasure chests alone for now. Start by going to the recovery spring Then go southeast. Go east, south, west and throught the opening. The rest iself-explanitory. Better items will be in them later.

Now go southeast to South Figaro. Shop, meet Shadow, and all that other good stuff. get some weapons and armor cause you got a long way ahead of you. Next go north to the house for a free rest. Edgar will notice Sabin was there. A man will say he went to the mountains. That's your next destination.

Mt. Koltz: Enter. Follow the path. There are some secret chests if you know the path. One has a Guardian (a weapon for Locke which increases speed) and the other is an Atlas Armlet (Raises fight damage) Yoyu'll eventually run into Vargas.

This is one of the hardest battles in the World of Balance! Fight the Ipooh's (about 200HP each) then go after him. Try to steal a mithril claw (a weapon for Sabin) have Terra use Fire, and Edgar either attack, or the auto crossbow. You might want Locke to attack as well. Eventually, Sabin will appear. Use the Pummel Blitz (Left, Right, left) Vargas will run. Sabin will now join the group. Exit.

Head north to the Returner's Hideout. Do some shopping, and get the items in pots and chests that you can reach. Rest for free. Now go see Banon. he'll give you words of wisdom. Now you only have Terra. With her, get the other treasure chests. After speaking to Locke, Sabin, and Edgar, go outside and talk to Banon. He'll ask you if you made a decision on helping.

Yes: You'll receive a Gauntlet, and will have a Returner's meeting.
No (3 times): You'll receive a Genji Glove, and there is no meeting.
No (1 time): Go back inside and talk to the returner, he'll give you a Genji Glove. You can say yes or no after this, but you won't get more items.

Locke leaves the group, and Banon joins. Now you must go down the Lete River.

Banon, Sabin, Edgar, and Terra now go down the Lete River. The attacks are involuntary. Have Edgar use the auto crossbow, Sabin attack, and Terra attack. have Banon cure.

MAXIMUM LEVEL UPS: On the lete River you can get up to Level 99, but it'll take a LO-ONG time. It's better to have a control with a turbo button. Set the configure to memory, and put the turbo on. Get to the part where it asks to go up or left. The turbo button will continue to go north. Make sure the attacks I said above are the ones being used. Within a couple days, you should be on VERY high levels!!!

STRONGER BANON: One thing I like to do on Lete River battles is having Edgar use an Auto crossbow, and when it is safe have everybody retreat except Banon. Leave him to get all the experience. By the time you reach Ultros he'll be at least on Lever 13. If you die, just redo the stage and give him more experience. He'll be much more stronger.

Ultros: Here you encounter Ultros for the first time. Make sure everyone gets healing. Have terra use Fire, Sabin use the Aurabolt, Edgar Aatack. and Banon cure. Ultros is very likely to kill Terra with one hit. Eventually he'll run away. Sabin will go after him, and the current will take him away from the others.

Scenarios:

I'd start with Terra's scenario. She's with Edgar & Banon. They ride the rapids to Narshe. Enter Narshe, and go to the secret room Locke showed you. Go through the mines. You'll end up at Arvis' house. Make sure Banon doesn't fall. This is the simplest scenario obviously :)

Locke's scenario: Locke will be in South Figaro. You'll need to do some stealing. Go into the item shop, and steal from the mrechant. You'll get his clothes and either a Plumed Hat, or a Guardian. Go down the stairway and outside. Find a trooper in green armor and fight. Steal his clothers Go to the cafe. Go downstairs to where the merchant is. Fight him, or steal his clothes. You'll get the cider. Take the cider to the old man. He'll talk. He won't tell you the password, but it's multiple choice. (It's COURAGE) You'll go to the rich man's house. Go to where he is, and go to the left to find the secret paggase. There's another one here. In the room with 3 doors, go right all the way, down all the way, and right. Another secret treasure room. Now leave, and go by the first door. Inside are two soldiers and Celes. Remove her chains. Locke will promise to protect her (like with Terra.) Celes joins. The next door is a save point. The third door is some treasure and 2 clocks go to the one which is not ticking. Make sure you got the clock key from the sleeping guard. Wind the clock and a door will appear. Get all the treasure, so Celes will have equipment. leave. If you need, go to the house to the north and rest. Now go to the Cave of Figaro. If you open the chest closest to the beginning (when you first came here) it's now a Thunder Rod. As you leave, be sure to use the spring. Now Tunnel Armor will fight you. FIrst, have Locke steal (of course) and MAKE SURE Celes does the Runic. Next have Locke use the Thunder Rod (if you wish) it will take a lot of damage. Then use normal attacks till he's dead. Usually, th Thunder Rod is enough to finish it off. You'll get an Elixer & 250GP.

Sabin's Scenario: This is the longest of the 3. Go to the house next to the Lete River and buy some supplies. next talk to Shadow, and let him join you. You'll need him if levels are low. Go east, then south till you get to the Imperial Base. You'll hear a conversation between some soldiers. The scene will change to Doma Castle where an attack is about to take place. Cyan is introduced. He will attack the leader. (If you want, attack the soldiers for extra goodies) The leader is pretty easy, just use the Sword tech #1. You'll get a blackbelt. Give it to Sabin when the scene changes. Make sure you get the Star Pendant if you want. Go south and you'll see General Leo making his battle plan. He leaves, and you hear Kefka talking about poisoning Doma. You fight him but he runs. After fighting him, go to the tent NW of Kefka, and get the treasure & Monster-in-a-box. Beat him and get a Green Beret, which would be good now. Fight Kefka again. He'll run, and send the troops after you. Defeat them no problem. Kefka will now poison Doma. Only Cyan and a Sentry survive. Cyan is raged when his wife & child die. He runs to the base and starts fighting. Offer to help them. After beating them, get in the magi-tek armor, and escape. Go west, and south to the Phantom Forest. Shadow might leave around now, so I recommend saving after every battle.. Get to the train. If Shadow is still with you, you have him on the train. You'll learn about the train. You must now try to stop the train. Find the friendly ghost(s) to join you. Two ghosts will sell you goodies, and others will fight. If you eat some dinner, you'll replenish HP. Be sure to look in every cart. After the 3rd to last cart, any ghosts in the party will leave. Save, flip the 1st and 3rd switches, and stop the train by pressing the lever. You'll fight the train. Use stars, blitz's and Swd tech #1. If you have a Revifify, use it ON THE TRAIN, and it'll automatically die. If you don't, this is another difficult battle.

After defeating the train, head to Baron falls. At this point Shadow will leave (if he hasn't yet.) Sabin and Cyan will go down the falls fighting pirahnas and a boss. That would be a good time to put the Black Belt on Sabin (if you have it.) Just use normal attacks, and when Rizopas comes up, you may want to use Swd Tech #1, and Pummel. Beat him, you'll get a remedy. You'll get to the bottom of the falls where Gau will pull you out. When you come to, he'll run away.

Now you're on the Veldt. You'll see enemies you've seen before ONLY. Gau will pop out, but unless you have Dried Meat you might as well chase him away. head east to Mobliz, and make sure you buy some Dried meat. Also but new weapons and be sure to send letters for the wounded soldier. After sending the book, you'll get a Tintinabar. Be sure to take advanatge of the free rest in the bed in the relic shop. Now, walk around for Veldt for Gau to pop up, Give him the dried meat, a scene will be done, and then he'll join you. Equip him, and you might want to walk around a while to give Gau some more rages. You will not receive any experience here, so if you're playing to see how low of a level you can be on (especially when you get the espers) this is a place to get some good money for supplies.

When you have Gau, go to Serpent Trench south of Mobliz. Get to the end of the path, and Gau'll give you the Diving helmet. With it, you can breathe underwater and ride the rapids. You'll fight involuntarily, with breaks if you take the right path. You'll also get an X-Potion, and a Green Beret. When you get to the end, you'll be in Nikeah. Buy some things, and take the ferry to South Figaro. The scenarios have ended.

Narshe: The scene begins at a meeting with Banon, the Elder, Arvis, Edgar, and Terra. Sabin's group will enter, then Locke's. You'll hear Kefka's coming to attack the town. You'll go guard the esper. Kefka comes and sends the troops to attack. You must form 3 groups. I suggest putting Terra, Celes, Edgar, and Sabin in one group. (Although you only have 7 characters) Have that group go and attack. Take the shortest routes, defeating the troops. if they reach Banon, the quest is over. Get to Kefka and fight. Have Terra use Fire, Edgar attack, Sabin use blitzes, and Celes use Ice or use runic. You'll get a Peace Ring when he runs. Now the group, will go to the Esper. When Terra sees it, she'll morph and fly away. The next scene shows them putting a plan to find Terra.

You'll need a group. I suggest Edgar, Locke, and Celes or Sabin. (Trust me, only 3.) Go to South Figaro, and talk to the engineer in the basement. Go to Kohlingen. Also, go to the tool and item shops, and put Edgar in front of the group. You'll get a 50% discount on the items. (Tonics are 25GP, Tents are 600GP, etc...) Now exit, and go to Kohlingen.

If you decide to go north of Kohlingen, you'll find a house. In a pot you'll find a hero ring. (Raises fight & magic damage) Now go back.

Buy supplies, and be sure to go to the inn/cafe (especially if you have 3 or less party members) Shadow is there, and for 3000GP, he'll join you. If you have Locke in your party, 2 scenes will take place from his past with the accident of his girlfriend Rachel. Now go south.

Not much to do in Jidoor at this point. Just buy supplies, and go east.

You should arrive in Zozo. A very untrusted town. Don't believe anything anyone says. First, go to the tower, and wind the clock. Set the clock at 6:10:50 A hidden door will appear, and you'll get the chainsaw. Now go south, and, follow the path, and you'll go to a theif's room in line, just get in line, and exit. Go up the stairs all the way to find a Theif's Glove for Locke. Equip it. Jump the building. The rest should be just follow the path. Find the Fire Knuckle for Sabin, and go see Dadaluma. FIGHT! Have Sabin either attack, or blitz, Edgar use chainsaw, Celes use magicm Locke capture or fight, Cyan use swd techs, Shadow throw stars, or Gau use his rage. (Depending on who you have.) Go to the room he's guarding, and there's Terra! You'll meet the Esper Ramuh. He'll tell you a story about espers, and will give you his power. As well as Kirin, Siren, and Stray. be sure to equip these (and change from time to time) Now talk to one of the other characters. A scene will take place, and Shadow will leave the group (if you have him) You must make another group, but Celes & Locke MUST be in the group. I recommend Edgar & Sabin to go along. You can change group by going to Narshe. Go to Jidoor.

In Jidoor, go to the rich man's house, and talk to the impressario. You'll hear about the opera, and Setzer is introduced. Exit and go south.

Head toward the Opera House (you might want to save before going in) Watch the scene. Celes will leave to get on stage. Have Locke go see her in the dressing room. SHOWTIME! here are the lines:

Oh My hero
I'm The Darkness
Must I

Dance with Draco, grab the flowers and go to the balcony. The rest will be done for you. But hurry! If you mess up, you'll have to start again. Mess up too much & the game is over. Locke finds Ultros' letter. Go to impressario. You now must stop Ultros from ruining the opera. (Sprint Shoes may be a big help now) Go press the far right switch in the right room. Now go to above the stage fighting rats. Get to Ultros before 5 minutes are up. You'll all fall on the stage, and fight Ultros. Try to use anything with Fire. Got 2GP. Setzer comes and kidnaps celes thinking she's Maria. The scene is now on the airship. Everyone gets on. After Setzer spots them, he decides to help if Celes will marry him. She flips Edgar's two headed coin and Setzer joins without marriage. Try to buy some supplies, and heal up on the airship. You'll go to Albrook. You can no longer be able to change the party. Buy supplies in Albrook, Tzen, and Maranda. Now go to the center Vector. Might want to see the guy in the small hut. Refuse to pledge, and fight some whimps. Get fully healed talking to the guy. Buy supplies if necessary. Talk to the guy behind the box. He'll distract the guards as you enter the facility.

The Facility: Follow the path getting the treasure chests. Beware as the enemies are stronger to weapons. Lightning works great. When you are ready, get on the conveyor belt. You'll hear Kefka gice a speech then he'll toss 2 espers in the dump. Follow them. Don't talk to them yet. Go in the room to the left and save. Try to have fire and ice ready. You'll fight Ifrit first, but they'll switch from time to time. Use ice on Ifrit. and Fire on Shiva. Once one is defeated, you'll get the power from both. Now go to the room in the right. When you get to the facility find the "Break Blade" on the bottom left hand corner of the screen. The next room was #024. Heal up and fight. He'll continuously change his weak point. Try to find it and beat him. The Break Blade will work no matter what the weak point is. You'll go into the next room where Espers are about to die. All 6 will give you their power. Cid comes out, and Kefka comes from the other room. He accuses Celes of lying to Locke. She casts a spell to make Kekfa (as well as herself) vanish. Cid helps you get outside. SAVE!!! Change your esper if necessary. Now go on the cart. Fight as much as you can. You'll get to #128. Go for the main body, and don't worry about the arms unless they annoy you. When you beat it, save. Now Setzer will find you and you'll all exit.

As you exit, you'll fight two arms. Don't use lightening on the left one, and don't use fire on the right one. Have Setzer try to do the slot especially 3 diamonds. When you win, you'll go back to Zozo. Locke shows Terra one of the espers (Maduin) who is Terra's father. This gives Terra her memory back, and she tells the story of her parents. That part is pretty much self-explanitory.
