最终幻想1(Final Fantasy)(FF1)
Script Part 4

EXTERIOR: OVERWORLD -- WATERFALL NORTHWEST OF ONRAC

Utterly trampling KRAKEN, and reviving the Water ORB, not
to mention saving the Mermaids ta boot, the LIGHT WARRIORS succumb
to the enchanting mysterious behind the waterfall..eluded to by 
the Onracian citizens. Here we go again! =)

Penatrating the eluminant mists falling down from above the
LW discover a passage/cavern that leads to somewhere. The search
begins. Bats! (Remember ALL bats say the same thing.) Deeper and
deeper, darker and darker... The LW finally reach a room with 
something shiny inside. What..a robot!? 

ROBOT: Take this CUBE. With it,
you can transfer to the 
FLOATING CASTLE.

ROBOT: Please----


* * *


EXTERIOR: LEFEIN -- NEAR ENTRANCE

Merely possessing the CUBE is not enough to gain entrance to
the Mirage Tower.. the LW decide to put their language skills to the
test and try to speak with the people of Lefein.

(Note: gender of townsfolf unknown - they appear androgenous, at least to me..)

PERSON: We are the Lefeinish.
Only our bravest become
SKY WARRIORS. Your
AIRSHIP was theirs.

EXTERIOR: LEFEIN -- NARROW CAUSEWAY

GUARD: At the time of
destruction a legend was
born---- In 400 years,
WARRIORS with ORBS will
appear to save our
people .
Are you?----

GUARD: Oh, the LIGHT WARRIORS!!
The legend is true!

EXTERIOR: LEFEIN -- WEST END -- OUTSIDE RESIDENTIAL AREA

PERSON: Until 400 years ago we
controlled the Power of
the Wind. This enabled
us to suspend the castle
in the air.

PERSON: 400 years ago, we had an
advanced civilization.
Our interest was the 
universe!!

EXTERIOR: LEFEIN -- WEST END -- BRIDGED WALKWAY

PERSON: We have passed on the
legends from generation
to generation. But 400
years have caused our
memories to fade.

PERSON: The FLOATING CASTLE
floats high in the 
sky, seemingly among
the stars.

PERSON: I wonder if the robots
made by our ancestors
are still moving?

EXTERIOR: LEFEIN -- EAST END -- NEAR RESIDENTIAL AREAS

PERSON: The FLOATING CASTLE----
Our ancestors lived
there. The Mirage Tower
is the entrance.

EXTERIOR: LEFEIN -- EAST END -- BRIDGED WALKWAY

PERSON: The power of Wind was
taken by TIAMAT.

CITIZEN: We knew that a great 
power controlled the
FIENDS. Our five bravest
warriors left, never to
return.

CITIZEN: We fought with TIAMAT,
but were unsuccessful.
The FIEND now inhabits
our FLOATING CASTLE.

CITIZEN: (s) With this CHIME you can
enter the Mirage Tower.



The Mirage Tower was the
gateway to our home in
the sky.

EXTERIOR: LEFEIN -- NORTHEAST END -- SECRET PATH

CITIZEN: Our last five warriors 
left to find the cause
of the world's decay.
We know they live, but,
as bats.


* * *


EXTERIOR: MIRAGE TOWER

And so, the LIGHT WARRIORS merge closer with destiny as
they approach the fourth and final FIEND--the FIEND of Wind!
The Mirage Tower ominously suspends in the horizon, brooding in
the burning desert, as if to call out to the LW ... they must
heed it's call if they are to save the world from evil----


INTERIOR: MIRAGE TOWER -- FIRST FLOOR -- BACK OF ROOM

What looks like highly futuristic computer systems and
gadgetry lines the walls of the robots' proximity. This civilization
was indeed advanced.

ROBOT: Are you the master?

INTERIOR: MIRAGE TOWER -- SECOND FLOOR -- TOP

ROBOT: One of us escaped with
a CUBE. He floated far
to the west.

INTERIOR: MIRAGE TOWER -- SECOND FLOOR -- CENTER ROOM

More and more advanced looking, the interior of the room
is formed of almost completly computerized machines.

INTERIOR: MIRAGE TOWER -- THIRD FLOOR -- INSIDE ROOM

A lone robot stands before a large computerized device
frozen in time. The LW boldly step forward to where few have
gone before...

As if scooped up by a great force the LW are magically 
taken to a place high above the clouds ... above the planet.


* * *


EXTERIOR: SPACE -- SKY CASTLE

Resting against a sea of stars, far above the blue-green surface
of the planet. The Sky Castle is an ancient piece of the past, containing
a tremendous evil. 

INTERIOR: SKY CASTLE -- TRANSPORTER

The LW are in awe in their surroundings. Where they are,
is unlike nowhere else they have been or seen. Completely 
constructed of unknown materials and systems, the Sky Castle
truly is advanced as the Lefeinish had hinted to. It exudes
advanced technology and the LW are quite uncertain to what it
all represents. Nevertheless, they seek out TIAMAT and try to
illuminate the final ORB.

-------
Note: After aquiring the ADAMANT on floor two it is suggested that 
you return to the Dwarf's Cave to speak with Smith again. Why? 
He'll make you a little ol' sword called..Xcalber. It happens to be
the most powerful sword in the game -- AFTER Masmune, of course.



INTERIOR: DWARF'S CAVE -- SMITH'S ROOM

SMITH: ADAMANT!!
Now let me make
the sword for you----
Here, the best work I've
ever done.
It is my gift.
-------

INTERIOR: SKY CASTLE -- THIRD FLOOR -- WINDOW

ROBOT: You can look out over
the world from this 
window.

Awestruck, the LIGHT WARRIORS peer out of the Sky Castle's
window to look upon the world they live on. The power residing 
here is monumental! 

From this window one can 
see the entire world.
The Four Forces are
flowing together, into
the center of the Four
Altars. Into the Temple
of FIENDS.

INTERIOR: SKY CASTLE -- THIRD FLOOR -- SOUTH OF ENTRANCE -- SMALL ROOM

A computerized system of sorts glows and beeps oddly. 
The leader of the party touches one of the glowing indicators
and----

COMPUTER: TIAMAT is the FIEND of
the WIND---- 

A larger room to the south even proves to be a control
room of sorts. Chairs indicate that operators are still needed
and that it's not fully automated. Explaining the existance of
the scattered robots??

INTERIOR: SKY CASTLE -- FIFTH FLOOR -- WIND ORB'S ALTAR ROOM

Much more 'evolved' than the three before--this FIEND is clearly
the strongest and toughest of the bunch. TIAMAT means business
and HER quarters emitt an haunting state even in her abscence.

The LW exam the FIEND's ORB closely--sparks jolt throughout
the room everywhere and suddenly the beast empowered with the
element of Wind..comes to life.

Lightning, erupts from
the FIEND's ball----
TIAMAT: So, you have come this 
far----
I, TIAMAT the FIEND of
the Wind will now put an
end to your adventure!!



Soon, even TIAMAT falls to the hands of the mighty LIGHT
WARRIORS! YOU DID IT! YOU'VE REVIVED ALL FOUR ORBS!!! ^_^

(Note: As always, once you complete a significant task/obstacle--talk
to the townsfolk again. More often than not, the occasional NPC will
muse something new for you.)

Lets
start
back 
in
Coneria
shall
we?...

EXTERIOR: CONERIA -- BEHIND MAGIC CENTERS

OLD MAN: (s) As legend foretold, once 
again the ORBS shine!!
Quickly, to fulfill the
legend, take them to the
Temple north of here,
and stand in the center.


* * *


EXTERIOR: CRESCENT LAKE -- SECLUDED GROVE (CIRCLE OF SAGES)

SAGE: The Temple of FIENDS is
in the center of the
Four Altars. The time
has come to destroy the
source of evil.

SAGE: With the four ORBS 
shining again the Time
Gate can be broken. The
true enemy is 2000 years
in the past.

SAGE: The world was suddenly 
thrown into disorder.
You must restore it.

SAGE: Time is repeating.
In order to break the
Time-Loop you must
eliminate the enemy who
controls from 2000 years
in the past.

SAGE: Someone travelled 2000 
years to the past. The
four FIENDS were sent
forward in time. Those
FIENDS threaten to 
destroy the world today.

SAGE: I see now,
someone who travelled 
back 2000 years is the
cause of the world's 
destruction. After 2000
years he will travel 
back again----
Then again---- Then again----

SAGE: Time will repeat itself
every 2000 years.
Break the time-loop!


* * *


EXTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS 

The LIGHT WARRIORS moment of truth! What will be the Final
enemy?? Let's go! 

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- INNER SANCTUM/GARLAND'S ROOM

The LIGHT WARRIORS take out the four ORBS and magically they
hover and glow in the air---- Then, supernatuarally, via a great
force, they become one and engulf the Black(evil) ORB.

The four ORBS now cover
the black ORB----
To take a step forward
is to go back 2000 years
in time.


(Oops! Forget what I said earlier. All bats don't always say the same thing.
The bats in the Temple of Fiends are the *only* exception though--due to the
fact that in the past they were once human and were transformed by Garland.)

BAT: You must travel back in
time 2000 years. Now,
with the ORBS shining,
stand in the Time Gate.

BAT: Help! The FIEND's curse
turned us into bats.
With the ORBS shining 
anew, once again we
can speak.

BAT: We are the five lost
SKY WARRIORS. 400 years
ago we battled against 
the cause of the world's 
destruction.

BAT: The Four FIENDS power
is rooted 2000 years
ago. The real enemy is
in that time.

BAT: When the 4 ORBS cover
the black ORB in the 
center of the palace,
the Time Gate can open.

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- CENTER ROOM -- TIME GATE

The LIGHT WARRIORS enter....

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS 

The LIGHT WARRIORS stand--unknown is their future..or their past. 
What ever they do here though will decide the very fate of the world in 
both time periods. This is where hero's are made----

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- THIRD FLOOR -- CENTER ROOM

The LIGHT WARRIORS discover a plate, like that of which was
encountered in the Earth Cave in the future.

There is a stone plate
on the floor---- 
You sense something----
Evil?----


The LW use the LUTE. The tune plays, revealing a stairway.

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- FIRST BASEMENT FLOOR

LICH is met again, and he now has the ability to utilize
NUKE--ouch! Watch out - sometimes he can surprise ya!

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- SECOND BASEMENT FLOOR

KARY is still quite the ill-tempered lady--although the LW
bust 'er up with ease. 

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- THIRD BASEMENT FLOOR

KRAKEN is still his arrogant self. Show 'em what yer made of 
and wup his slimy arse. =) Ultros would even be embarassed to say he's
in the same species as ol' KRAKEN. 

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- FOURTH BASEMENT FLOOR

TIAMAT, eh? She could still prove an intresting challenge even
this late in the game. Be on yer toes. She's sneaky that way.

(Note: Don't forget to pick up Masmune on this floor.)
? . . o O( Hey, stupo! It's a
\ (O~) script..not a FAQ!)
C( )> 
oo 

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- FIFTH BASEMENT LEVEL

The Final Battle awaits the LW here. Deep in the Temple stirs an ignoble
evil schemeing to plague the world with torment--it must be put to an end..once
and for all. Now the LIGHT WARRIORS face the TRUE enemy--and
the fate of the entire world hangs in the balance.

INTERIOR: TEMPLE OF FIENDS -- FIFTH BASEMENT LEVEL -- CENTRAL ROOM

The LIGHT WARRIORS enter to view a man standing in a dimly lit
room. Behind him seems to be a tablet surrounded by the 4 elements
of the world: Earth, Water, Wind, and Fire.

GARLAND: Remember me, Garland?
Your puny lot thought it
had defeated me. But,
the four FIENDS sent me
back 2000 years into 
the past.

From here I sent the 
FOUR FIENDS to the 
future. The FIENDS will
send me back to here,
and the Time-Loop will
go on.

After 2000 years, I will
be forgotten, and the
Time-Loop will close. I
will live forever, and
you shall meet doom!!



The final battle w/CHAOS took everything the LW had but they fought 
valiantly and destroyed the evil at it's source. Forever will Garland's
wickedness be silenced. The LIGHT WARRIORS triumph and save the world!!! ;D
Peace shall reign forevermore----


EPILOGUE



The Time-Loop
is now broken!
The 2000 year
long battle is
over. Peace
prevails.

Control of the
four elements,
the Earth, the
Wind, the Fire,
and the Water,
again belongs
to the earth.

Garland's hatred
burned for 2000
years. That
hatred led the 
Four Powers to
this world.

CHAOS was
created from
those Four.
Evil dominated
the world and
covered it in
darkness.

But, it is over
now, wrong has
been set right!!

The LIGHT
WARRIORS are
returning----
As they travel
in time, the
world returns
to normal.

Sara and Jane
wait for them----
Of course,
Garland does
too.

But, when did it
ever happen?---- 

Everything went
mad in a day.
The reason lies
in the 2000 year
Time-Loop.

The Four chose
to become one 
force, and fight
against the four
evil forces that
set darkness
upon the world.

When the Four
return, it will
be to their 
past. All
signs of the
battle with the
Forces will be
erased.

But the legend 
will live on.
Passed down by
the Dwarves, the
Elves, and the
Dragons----

Passed on by
peoples unsure
where the story
came from.

The
LIGHT WARRIORS
return from
their journey
back in time
2000 years.

The memories
stored deep in
their hearts
will protect the
world.

Never forget
the good and
true----
Never turn the
Four Powers to
the dark side----

And truth will 
always live in
the hearts of
the people.

The Warrior who
broke the 2000
year Time-Loop
is truly a 
LIGHT WARRIOR----
That warrior was
YOU!

May the ORBS
always shine!!----




The
End

- Version 1.0 -

Thank you for reading the script and hope you enjoyed it. You probably
either hated or loved the extra colorful commentary that I provided in the script.
I did so for a reason though--this script is rather bland--comparatively speaking
--next to such emotion roller-coasters as 2, 3, and 7. If you notice any errors,
omissions, or syntax mistakes let me know please, so I may correct them. All of 
the ascii art contained within this script was produced by me--if you wish to use
any of it--just ask first and get permission (or else, kupo!). ;) 

Next up on my busy agenda will be the "Final Fantasy III Script" (which is 
already underway) and will by a co-op production of both Andrew Vestal and myself.
If you want to help in anyway (I'll need some, kupo)--contact me at Kruncha@aol.com
or Rabite@juno.com. Thanks, and may the Final Fantasy series never end! 

Special thanks go to:
昺y old (but still kickin') NES
昺y copy of FF
昺y trusty NP collection
昺y Editors: me, myself, and I.
昹ast but not least, God

- Version 1.1 -

Well, here I am again. Thanks for all the kind words. Lotsa' little gremlins
have been dutifully disposed of, namely of the grammatical&punctuation ilk. Retab-
ulated things here and there. I also found new text! 1)The grounds keeper in ElfLand
Castle will say something new if you speak to him right before you give the HERB to
the Prince. 2)The Dragon in Onrac will say something a little different if you speak
with it before changing into your more powerful form. 
AND
I've found out that Tiamat is a SHE..as opposed to a HE, as once previously held (at 
least by one who is writing this.) Weird, ne?

For those interested, it took me just over 5 months to make the script. Some- 
times I thought of quitting but I'm glad I did'nt--FFI deserves it. Besides; it put
a LOT of things in perspective for me about RPGs and I've learned quite a bit of
Squ/\re's little nuances in their games via correspondance following the Square Net
posting of this file. I will not be finishing the FFIII script--there is already an
adequate one posted and I have better things to do--sorry. Here are some answers to
some popular questions i've received over the past few months. 

Q: What's your party of choice?
A: Fighter/Black Belt/Black Mage/White Mage or the default party.

Q: How many times have you solved it and at what level?
A: Twice. Currently on my third time. 25 and 27 respectively.

Q: Hey, moogles are'nt in FFI!?
A: Uh,...DUH!!!!!

Q: What do you name your characters? 
A: Kinda personal but you wanted to know...

Fighter = Just (short for Justin)
Thief = Nero 
Black Belt = Ayin 
White Mage = Maev 
Black Mage = Puck (too much Gargoyles;)
Red Mage = Ravu (not Ragu!)

Q: Will these names be adopted as the universal names for FFI characters?
A: Never.

'Til next version, I'm all ears at Kruncha@aol.com.

- Version 1.2 - to Infinity and beyond!.. maybe..

More text found(!) and errors amended. This may be the last update for
awhile--possibly THE last. After going through the game a third time now,
I personally do not see any more new text. 100%? Dunno. Anyone who can
find new /spoken/ text (not in this script) from Final Fantasy will be either
super-human or severely deranged. Good luck and ciao! ..... aha!.. .tey
