Tower of Zot The Tower of Zot is a location in " Final Fantasy IV " . It is a tower that does not appear on the world map , and so can only be reached by entering the " Enterprise " after defeating the Dark Elf , which will immediately rise to bring the player to the tower . After the events at the tower it can never be visited again . It is where Barbariccia makes her home along with her minions , the Magus Sisters . Although the Tower of Zot plays an important role in the story , being Golbez ' s base of operations before Cecil and his allies arrive , its nature is never explained . It is never revealed who built the tower , or for what purpose . Even its name is not explained , such as who or what " Zot " is . In the 2D releases , the Tower of Zot shares the same architecture as the Tower of Babil , but in the 3D remakes the towers are different . Furthermore , the Tower of Zot is never seen on the World Map and its location is a mystery , but as the " Enterprise " rises into the air to fly to it , it has been speculated the tower floats in the sky somewhere . Story . The tower is where Golbez and Kain hold Rosa captive . From the tower Golbez discovers Cecil is to become a Paladin , and sends Scarmiglione to stop him , and where Golbez and Kain plot to get Crystal of Earth and use Cecil to do it . Cecil , Tellah , Yang , and Cid climb the tower after obtaining the Crystal , expecting Rosa ' s freedom in exchange . Golbez asks the party to fight their way up , as he wants them to " receive the reward " . Along the way , they meet up with Sandy , Cindy , and Mindy , the three Magus Sisters , and fight them . After defeating them , Cecil meets Golbez and hands him the Crystal , but Golbez is not willing to give up Rosa . Tellah summons Meteor , severely weakening Golbez and breaking his control over Kain , but the spell fatally wounds Tellah . Cecil rushes in to deliver the final blow to Golbez , but Golbez casts a spell and pushes him back . He notices a strange aura about Cecil , and turns away . Tellah dies , and Kain takes Cecil and his friends to rescue Rosa , who was saved in the nick of time , as a steel guillotine that would have killed her fell moments later .

Before Cecil and his friends escape , they are attacked by Barbariccia , the Archfiend of Air . They defeat her , but she destroys the tower in her death throes . Rosa casts the Teleport spell to help the party escape . The warper found in 1F is the only exit from the tower . After Kain disappears , the game starts from here .
