[edit] Story

[edit] Final Fantasy IV

Cecil Harvey, Rosa Joanna Farrell, Edward Chris von Muir, and Rydia arrive at the castle with Yang, warning the King that Baron is seeking Fabul's Crystal of Air. The king initially does not believe them, as he does not trust the Dark Knight Cecil. Yang and Edward convince the king that Cecil is trustworthy, and the party helps Yang defend the castle against Baron.

The Castle of Fabul

The war begins with bombing by the Red Wings, and the Monks are forced to retreat. Many of the monks are defeated by the monsters which now make up much of the Baronian army. Eventually, Cecil, Edward, and Yang are the only ones left standing, and have to retreat to the Crystal Room. However, Kain Highwind enters the room, and Cecil asks for his assistance. Kain reveals that he is working for the Baron now, and he and Cecil duel. Kain wins the duel, and Golbez shows his face for the first time. Rosa and Rydia come to the rescue, but Golbez manages to wound Yang and Edward, and take Rosa as a hostage. Kain then steals the Crystal.

Cecil, Rydia, Edward, and Yang ponder for a way to get Rosa back. Cecil decides that they should go see Cid Pollendina in Baron, who will give them an airship. Yang asks the King of Fabul if they can borrow a sailing ship to take them to Baron. The King agrees, and gives Cecil the Black Sword, which instantly kills any creature Cecil strikes with it. However, the King notes that it cannot work on true evil.

Later in the game, Cecil returns to Fabul after visiting the Sylph Cave in the Underworld and speak to Yang's Wife. She will give Cecil a Frying Pan which can be used to wake Yang up. After doing so, returning to Fabul and talking to Yang's wife allows Cecil to get a Knife, the most powerful throwing weapon for Edge. If thrown, it will deal 9999 damage regardless of the enemy's defenses, although it can still miss the untransformed Zeromus.
