Zanarkand Dome
Talk9this wiki
Added by ParaminaThe Zanarkand Dome, also known as the Yevon Dome, consists of the ruins of the former temple and government seat of Zanarkand in Final Fantasy X. It is probable that Yu Yevon was High Priest of this temple, due to the fact he was the leader of Zanarkand. Its architecture resembles the blitzball stadium in Dream Zanarkand.

Added by ParaminaAfter Yu Yevon decided to turn the remaining citizens of Zanarkand into fayth, and after losing his personality by summoning Sin and Dream Zanarkand, his daughter, Yunalesca, became master of the Dome. By defeating Sin with the first Final Aeon, her husband Zaon, she died, but remained in the Dome as an unsent whose only quest was to preserve the secret and legacy of Yu Yevon, and to create new Final Aeons from the guardians of a summoner who completes their pilgrimage.
The entire Dome is an enormous assembly of pyreflies of the fallen citizens of Zanarkand and the memories of summoners and their guardians, similar to the Farplane in Guadosalam. The fayth within the Chamber of the Fayth, Lord Zaon, has already left its statue and is not able to be summoned anymore. In the International and European versions, the Dome is where Dark Bahamut is fought.
After Yu Yevon's defeat, in Final Fantasy X-2, Cid turns the Zanarkand ruins into a tourist attraction, with Isaaru as a tour guide. A species of monkeys have also taken over the place. In Final Fantasy X-2, a new cave can be explored beneath the Dome.
Temple aeonEdit
- Lord Zaon (lost its power long ago)
- Final Aeon of each summoner (created of a guardian of the summoner's by Yunalesca)
Cloister of TrialsEdit
Zanarkand Dome's Cloister of Trials is a puzzle involving the player stepping on special tiles in a certain order to activate the corresponding pedestal. Four pedestals require the player to do this, after which the player has to place a Besaid sphere and a Kilika sphere in two remaining pedestals, to open the Chamber of the Fayth. The party has to defeat a guardian fiend, the Spectral Keeper, and ride a descending elevator to the Chamber where they meet Yunalesca.
The Destruction sphere of Zanarkand is needed to acquire Anima in Baaj Temple.
