The party has a new mission: get to Fabul's crystal before Golbez does. First, you'll have to pass through Mount Hobs. To get there, board the hovercraft, and head back to the shallows to the northwest. Take a detour in Damcyan if you need to heal, then continue through the shallows in the northeast. Mount Hobs is in the mountains to the east of the Antlion's Den. | |||

If you accidentally came here before while searching for the Antlion's Den, you may have already seen the wall of ice keeping you from going further. Once you enter, Rosa will coax Rydia into using Fire to melt the barrier of ice. Rydia is able to use the Fire spell in battle from that point on as well. | If you accidentally came here before while searching for the Antlion's Den, you may have already seen the wall of ice keeping you from going further.

'''Mount Hobs Summit''' | |||
From the entrance, head east, but skip past the stairs to get a chest with '''Holy Arrows''' for Rosa. Go up the first set of stairs, heal up if you didn't before now, and watch in awe as a single monk - Yang - takes out a group of enemies. However, the party decides to step in when a Bomb enters the fray.

Simply attack Mom Bomb with physical attacks, and have Rosa keep the party healed up. Rydia's Chocobo Summon is effective here, and Rosa's Aim ability lets her do a bit more damage while she isn't healing. | Simply attack Mom Bomb with physical attacks, and have Rosa keep the party healed up.

After leaving Mount Hobs, go east, then north. Follow the coastline around to the east until you see a break in the mountain range. Head east through this break, and work your way southeast until you see Fabul, a fortress with a moat and two bridges around it. | After leaving Mount Hobs, go east, then north.

Go through the castle's courtyard and into the door. In the next room, there is an Inn and item shop to the west, and a weapon and armor shop on the right. Be sure to purchase sufficient healing items, and rest up at the Inn if needed. The '''Demon''' armor that is available for sale at the armor shop is an upgrade for Cecil if you have the money for it. Unequip all gear from Rosa and Rydia, and equip the best available gear to Cecil, Edward and Yang. | |||
When your preparations are complete, head through the door in the north part of the room, up the stairs, and into the Fabul Castle Throne Room. The party made it just in time to join in the defense of Fabul's crystal! Edward, Cecil, and Yang head to the front gate to fight off Baron soldiers. | |||

During the defense of Fabul, you will be locked into a series of six battles, with no break in between. The enemies are fairly simple to beat; most of them you've already fought before. The Baron soldiers are slightly tougher since the unit in the back row can issue a '''Charge''' command to his cohorts, which gives each of the remaining units a priority attack. Be sure to keep your party healed with Edward's '''Salve''' ability. | |||

As frustrating as it is to easily take out enemies only for your party to retreat unnecessarily to the crystal room, just roll with it. | As frustrating as it is to easily take out enemies only for your party to retreat unnecessarily to the crystal room, just roll with it. | ||

Suddenly Kain enters the room. You automatically enter into battle with him. You can attack him, but there is no way to win, and eventually he defeats you. Then, Golbez enters, taking the Crystal and Rosa. Rydia brings the remaining members of your party back to life, and motivates the party to search for Rosa and the crystal.

Out on the castle rampart, go through the door immediately to the west. The left pot on the northern part of the room holds '''Zeus's Wrath''', and the three chests contain '''Bomb Fragment''', '''Antarctic Wind''', and '''Potion'''. All the way at the top of this tower is Yang's wife, Sheila. Once you're done, head back out to the castle rampart. | Out on the castle rampart, go through the door immediately to the west.

The king encourages you to rest at the inn, so take his advice. Head back down the tower, and back through the middle door. Take the stairs down, and go to the inn. | ||
The party formulates a plan to steal an airship from Baron, using a ship to travel there. Yang decides to talk to the king in the morning to arrange for a ship. Then, the party rests for the night. In the morning, the party goes to see the king, who readily agrees to lend you a ship. He also gives Cecil a powerful new sword. Exit the castle, and into the overworld. | |||
