The Ancient Castle

The Ancient Castle is a location in the game Final Fantasy VI. It was a castle that was active during the War of the Magi, when the king, Odin, fought off the invaders. However, he was eventually petrified, and the castle became submerged in an underwater cave. The castle can only be reached in the World of Ruin after obtaining the Falcon, and only by traveling in Figaro Castle. During the journey, the engineer will note that the castle has hit something strange. Passing through the Figaro jail cells reveals a new door which leads to a cave. The Ancient Castle is at the end of the cave. Here, approaching Odin causes him to become a Magicite shard. Also, there is a secret basement where the queen of this castle was petrified. To get there, go to the Queen's throne chair (the one on the right from your view). Walk five steps down from there, and press "X" and you'll activate an invisible switch, which creates a stairway in the next room to the right. Descending them, you will find the Blue dragon (a rather weak opponent). After slaying the dragon, approach the statue with the Odin magicite and it will cause the queen to shed a tear, and Odin will transform into Raiden magicite.

Also, on a different note: when you go into the room to the left of the throne room, you will not be able to open the treasure chest which is in a cell. You have to go outside of the castle then go into the door to the left of the stairs. You fight a monster and receive the Master's Scroll.
