- —Eidolon Library
In Final Fantasy IV, the Sylphs live in the Sylph Cave in the Underworld. Cecil Harvey and his friends find them taking care of Yang Fang Leiden, who has been injured due to an attempt to stop the Super Cannon in the Tower of Babil. The Sylphs would not let the party near Yang, as they did not trust humans. When Cecil came back with a frying pan given to him by Yang's wife, he hit Yang with it and he woke up. Yang offered his help, but the Sylphs would not let Yang leave. They offered Rydia their help instead as a summon. Two Sylphs can later be seen in the attack on the Giant of Babil, in a tank with Yang.
