Previously, the party freed Leviathan from the Mysterious Girls' influence in the Feymarch Replica. Then, they traversed the lower section of the Subterrane. On B12, they fought the Dark Knight and restored Cecil to his true self. Marvelous! Now, they will visit the Tail Exchange. Then, they will begin exploring the Depths, which is the last section of the final dungeon.
Subterrane:
The party resumes on the final floor of the Depths.
When they go upstairs to the top level of the zone, a scene with the Mysterious Girl takes place. She leaves behind a teleporter when she warps away.
The party takes the new teleporter to the Depths.
Depths (time 2:19):
The party gains control on floor B1 of the Depths. On this floor, there are an interdimensional elevator, a save point, and a Namingway shop.
In the west, a chest contains a Holy Lance. Kain equips this so he can equip a shield again. Ceodore takes the Dragon Shield and trades the Crystal Shield to Kain.
In the east, a chest contains a Robe of Lords. Rosa equips this. It provides resistance to fire, ice, and lightning, so she lets Edge take the Protect Ring. Edge also equips the Fire Scarf. This combination lets him absorb fire, ice, and lightning damage.
When the party chooses to rest at the save point, a scene with Cecil and Golbez takes place. Then, there is a scene with Cecil and Kain.
After checking things out, the party takes the interdimensional elevator to the Lunar Whale.

The party uses the interdimensional elevator to go to the ??? location.
Tail Exchange (time 10:39):
The party arrives outside a building. Inside, on the first level, they find the Tail Collector! They have gathered a few tails so far, so they exchange them for prizes.
They turn in a Green Tail for a Rare Band v2. For doing so, the player earns the achievement "Affect of the Exotic". The Rare Band v2 increases the drop rate of rare items.
The party turns in a Black Tail for a Twin Stars. For doing so, the player earns the achievement "Starstruck". The Twin Stars halves MP consumption in battle.
The party turns in a Gold Tail for a Gil Band v2. For doing so, the player earns the achievement "Get Rich or Die Tryin'". The Gil Band v2 doubles gil earned in battle.
Finally, the party turns in a Rainbow Tail for a Limit Ring. For doing so, the player earns the achievement "Made to Be Broken". The Limit Ring increases maximum damage dealt in battle.
The party takes the northern stairway to the second floor. There, they find Tradingway. Tradingway will take Adamantite in exchange for Adamant gear. The party takes a suit of Adamant Armor in exchange for 3 pieces of Adamantite. For obtaining a piece of Adamant Armor, the player earns the achievement "It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This".
The party takes a pair of Adamant Gloves in exchange for 1 piece of Adamantite. They take an Adamant Shield in exchange for 2 pieces of Adamantite. They take an Adamant Helm in exchange for 2 pieces of Adamantite.
Altogether, the Adamant gear provides excellent elemental and status resistance. Ceodore equips it all. Rydia equips the Ribbon that Ceodore had.
The bed on the second floor contains a Lustful Lali-Ho.
That is it for this place. Unfortunately, this version of the game does not have a Developer's Office. Oh, well.
Outside, the party uses the interdimensional elevator to return to the Lunar Whale.

They use the interdimensional elevator to teleport to the Depths.
Depths (time 20:48):

After saving, they go down the southern stairs to floor B2. B2 is a straightforward path. The party arrives in the northeast. Look out for dangerous enemy groups in this dungeon.

In the southeast part of the path, a chest contains a Thor's Hammer. This is a lightning-elemental hammer.
The party takes the southwest stairway down to floor B3. The party arrives in the north.
Just southwest of the start, there are three chests that contain a Silver Hourglass, a Cottage, and a Dry Ether.
In the southeast, a chest contains an X-Potion. In the southwest, a chest contains a Masamune. Edge equips this.
