JOURNEY ONWARDS!

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

Remember, the poor sap fell into the river and washed who knows where!

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

We find Sabin standing on the coast of some unknown land. Let's check out that house.

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

It's SHADOW, the ninja/assassin. Don't ask how he's gotten here since he won't say. But that tip about Imperial soldiers is handy.

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

Okay, so Doma castle is going to attacked soon. And Shadow is not to be trusted. Not cool Bro, not cool! Of course, first-timers usually dismiss the warning, only to realize how much "fun" it is when Shadow ditches the party while carrying best equipment and precious relics! Not that such a noobish thing would've ever happened to me, of course...

Eh, let's check the house.
finalfantasyiiiuv110000x.png

HEY HEY!

finalfantasyiiiuv110000y.png

Wut.

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

Such an intelligent reply.

Well we can't do anything about no clock, mistah!

So instead, let's check out the fireplace/oven thing:
finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

YAAAOUCH!!!! Well said, Sabin.

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

Apparently the elevator doesn't go all the way up.
He is not the sharpest tool in the shed.
He drives with only one cylinder.
Lights are on but nobody is home.

But one must wonder about this child he babbles?

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110001r.png

Yeah, not a good first impression, either way, Sabin!

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110002t.png

Necessary shopping done. Won't bore you with that.

finalfantasyiiiuv110002d.png

Ah, the Imperial Base looms ahead, cleverly placed on that bridge!

I tried to do all 243 pics at the same time. Imageshack declined and told me to do only 100 simultaneously, so I tried that, only to have them choke down completely.

So, I'm trying a new approach, where I cut the update down into several smaller posts which hopefully would work well enough and doesn't make the pages too cluttered either.

Yeah, that guy's loose tongue will get him into trouble.

finalfantasyiiiuv110003e.png

Quicker than anticipated!

finalfantasyiiiuv110004.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110004.png

These formations and tactics would put Saladin to shame, for sure!

finalfantasyiiiuv110004.png

How's that for visceral combat!

finalfantasyiiiuv110004.png

OH NO! What can the poor, brave defenders of Doma do?

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

Actually, this is a ridiculously simple fight. Just use the first SwordTech that Cyan has, named Dispatch, until the commander dies. He takes three hits, if I remember correctly. We'll inspect the SwordTechs in detail later.

finalfantasyiiiuv110005.png

Huzzah!

HEROIC INTERVENTION TIME!

finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

We're shaking already...

finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

FALCONPUNCH!

finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110009g.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

That actually made me chuckle the first time around. No Kefka, you don't look like a waiter.

finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

We chase...
finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

...and we chase...
finalfantasyiiiuv110009.png

Ah, we catch the bastard again!

What an insult!

finalfantasyiiiuv110010.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110010.png

Damn, couldn't they have made up a new joke, instead of reusing the old one?

finalfantasyiiiuv110010.png

Sure buddy, sure.

finalfantasyiiiuv110010.png

This is weird, the soldier just comes out of nowhere and holds us up.

finalfantasyiiiuv110010.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110010.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110010.png

Okay, now you can stop looping Kefka's tune.

finalfantasyiiiuv110011.png

Uh-oh.

Cyan rushes to his quarters, only to find a tragic sight.

finalfantasyiiiuv110014.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110014h.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110014t.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110014.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110014.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110014.png

And this is why FF6 kicks ass when compared to later games - instead of turning into whiny emobitch, Cyan seeks manly revenge!

finalfantasyiiiuv110014.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110014s.png

Time for Sabin and Shadow to interfere!

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

Ouch, never step between an angry knight and his target.

Very smart Sabin.

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

We can't actually control Cyan here, which is why he is standing in the middle like that. Anyway, the fight is a good break from the dialogue, though easy as eating a pie.

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

The angry knight runs ahead.

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

Sabin & Shadow help Cyan again.

finalfantasyiiiuv110015w.png

KEFKAAAAAAA!

finalfantasyiiiuv110015.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110016.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110016.png

And the team is -finally- formed!

Aaw, maybe they will hug soon too?

finalfantasyiiiuv110017.png

So I guess Cyan doesn't know how to ride a bicycle either...

finalfantasyiiiuv110017.png

Not necessarily a bad thing when one is inside a walking mech and surrounded by footsoldiers!

finalfantasyiiiuv110017.png

BULLRUSH!

finalfantasyiiiuv110017r.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110018.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110018.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110018m.png

Each of the lines above led into a fight with enemy mechs but again, 3 vs 1 or 3 vs 2 ain't breaking a sweat.

finalfantasyiiiuv110018.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110018.png

Cyan knows his geography.

Let's get going!

Whew, that's one of the longest dialogues in the game, finally over. Can only imagine how bad it would've been in full CGI with "epic" Latin choirs wailing in the background and Marilyn Manson growling during the fight scenes - oh, I don't have to imagine, we have Dragon's Age :smug:

finalfantasyiiiuv110018.png

Finally we are on the other side of the bridge.

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

Remembering that chest in Cyan's room, we're about to re-enter the Doma Castle.

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

It's a really sad music playing here. Listen:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiLWZzeA3cY
That song is also Cyan's theme so it did play in couple of parts earlier already. Most characters have a theme music for them which plays when there is something special going on.

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

Now this is retarded. They could've made the doors locked or something. Insted Imperium troops block our entry and we can't even fight them!

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

A mysterious forest awaits!

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

PHANTOM FOREST - that's surely just superstition from the local peasants, right?

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

Or not.

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

The waters of this mystical lake heal us, which is nice.

finalfantasyiiiuv110019.png

This place is also a maze. Some paths lead you to the beginning and only one leads forward...

What a surprise.

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

Uh-huh.

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

Maybe you should've asked that question BEFORE you entered the train, Sabin?

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

But before we go towards the engine, we'll check the last carriage of the train.

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110021.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110022.png

Sounds simple enough, I guess.

But we can only have one at a time, it seems.

Well, let's explore little more.

finalfantasyiiiuv110000t.png

Convenient! Even ghosts embrace capitalism!

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

Unfortunately the train isn't all peace and tranquility.

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

Second carriage.

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

Uh-oh.

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

We fought through him but that doesn't sound promising at all.

finalfantasyiiiuv110000e.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110000g.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110000.png

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

Sabin has obviously never seen a horror movie.

We're surrounded, egads!

finalfantasyiiiuv110001.png

To the roof!

Uh...

You can stay that again!

Time to tie a red scarf around your forehead Sabin!
