Story recap: in South Figaro, Locke has worked hard to stymie the efforts of the imperial troops, but now he desperately needs to escape. While disguised as a soldier, he learns that Kefka is about to lead his imperial troops on an invasion of Narshe. Eventually he ends up in a basement where he sees a woman being held and beaten by soldiers. She turns out to be general Celes, an artificially enhanced magitek knight, now branded as a traitor to the empire and scheduled for execution. Locke helps her escape, and the two of them find a back way out of South Figaro via an underground tunnel.

Back in Narshe, Sabin and Locke arrive with their companions while Banon is conferring with the Narshe elder. A Narshe scout reports that the imperial attack force is about to arrive, and everyone heads to the hills above Narshe, where the Esper had been relocated. Kefka and his troops arrive, and a ferocious battle ensues. The Narshe team manages to fight off the empire forces, and Kefka retreats. Finally having an opportunity, Terra approaches the Esper to see if the two can communicate with each other. As before with Vicks and Wedge, there's a violent reaction, but this time, instead of being knocked unconscious, Terra changes form into a white creature, and screams off into the sky.

The remaining party members regroup and make a plan. Since the empire still has its sights set on the Esper, they don't want to leave Narshe undefended in case it gets attacked again. They split into two groups, with some staying behind to guard Narshe, and the others venturing out to track down Terra. Terra was seen flying west, so the plan is to use Figaro's submerge mode to cross the western mountains, and search for clues in the towns of Kohlingen and Jidoor.

Sabin's return to Figaro brings him a lot of old memories. 10 years ago, the king took ill, and his last wish was for Figaro to be divided between his two sons. Sabin had heard a rumor that the king was poisoned by the empire, and had no interest in taking the throne. He invited Edgar to join him in leaving the castle behind. Edgar worried for what would happen to Figaro if they both abandoned it, and offered to settle the matter with a coin toss. The coin came up in Sabin's favor, so he left the castle while Edgar took the throne.

Figaro submerges and carries them beyond the mountains, right next to Kohlingen. Inside, they find Shadow at a pub, willing to lend his help for a price. Word on the street is that Terra did indeed stop at the town before continuing to the south toward Jidoor. Being in Kohlingen brings some memories back to Locke. He had lived in this town with his former love, Rachel. While they were out one day, an accident left Rachel with amnesia. Her parents blamed him for the accident and drove him off, and Rachel, having no memory, wished to no longer see him. He left town, and a year later, learned that Rachel had died in an imperial attack. Her memory had returned just before she died, and the last word she uttered was his name. Locke had a man in town preserve her body with herbs, hoping that someday he could find the legendary treasure that can bring back the dead.

Continuing on to the wealthy town of Jidoor, they find less direct evidence of Terra's presence, but some townsfolk did see her speed off to the mountains in the north. The town of Zozo had been built there by the former poor people of Jidoor, and as it was the last place to look, they're sure she's somewhere inside.
