[edit] Story
Dali was primarily a farming community, however, after Queen Brahne decided to make Black Mages, the villagers all but abandoned farming in favor of the more profitable Black Mage production. The children and elders were responsible for running the town and keeping the secret.
Zidane, Steiner, Garnet, and Vivi arrived there in order to rest and find a way to travel to Lindblum. They stayed the night at the inn, but the innkeeper noticed Vivi, and how he was similar in appearance to the Black Mages being produced. The next day, Garnet and Vivi went to explore the town, and Steiner tried to find a way to get back to Alexandria. Garnet tried to blend in with the villagers as "Dagger", a common girl, while Vivi became fascinated with the Windmill. Zidane went and talked to both of them, and eventually returned to the inn. When Vivi did not return, Zidane and Garnet went out to look for him. They heard him crying, and found a secret entrance to a base below the Windmill. Garnet noticed a symbol which she saw in the castle in Alexandria on a crate and was immediately suspicious. They found Vivi kidnapped and rescued him. They then discovered machines producing Black Mages, distressing Vivi. Zidane, Vivi, and Garnet snuck into a crate so they wouldn't be seen and were almost accidentally loaded onto the Cargo Ship. However, Steiner scared the villagers and halted them from loading the ship. The four of them were then attacked by Black Waltz No. 2. After defeating him, the group decided to board the airship, Steiner hoping to return to Alexandria while Zidane planned to divert the airship to Lindblum.
Later in the game, the player can choose to return to Dali and find the people working in the farms again.
