Final Fantasy : Legend of the Crystals / Chapter of the Wind The chapter opens with Linaly ' s grandfather , who is out in the nature observing the wind . Seeing how the wind grows ever more violent , he utters his concern about the world , sensing that danger is the come . The Blue Mage of Castle Tycoon shares this sentiment , as is shown right afterwards when he is introduced alongside the Queen of Tycoon and her general , Valkus . It is the mage who points out that " the darkness is coming " . The scene then cuts to a small village plagued by heavy rain . Linaly ' s grandfather insists that he has to go to the Wind Shrine , something which Linaly doesn ' t agree with , saying she could go on her own . Her grandfather refuses this and insists on accompanying her . Later , when the two are traveling by boat Prettz appears and opts to tag along as a bodyguard , but gets refused by Linaly ' s grandfather , saying that he just wants to be with Linaly . He still follows them nonetheless with his motorcycle before falling into a hole . The traveling duo then arrives in the ruins of a dessert village , where they are attacked by a giant , mantis - like monster . Linaly uses her powers to summon a Chocobo in order to escape , however this proves unsuccessful . Prettz then appears and slays the monster with his Kiku - ichimonji . However , due to some injuries and fatigue , Linaly ' s grandfather can no longer travel with her , thus leaving her to go on alone , while stating that Prettz should go back to the village . The scene then briefly cuts to a pair of robots discussing some events happening at Walse before ordering to launch an all - out attack at once . An airship with kind of a strange face is then shown flying towards the black moon . Back to our heroes , Prettz did naturally follow Linaly nonetheless , constantly telling her to travel with him on his motorcycle , as that would speed things up . While still denying this offer , an airship piloted by the pirate Rouge and her crew appears and attacks the pair , leading to Linaly quickly boarding the motorcycle . During their escape from the pirates , Prettz tells the pirates that they don ' t have any money to which they reply stating that the bike was well enough and that they should just leave everything and go . Prettz then leads the pirates into a canyon where he uses the terrain to jump over the airship , dropping a bomb in the process . Afterwards , Linaly tells Prettz about her mission while being in a forest , and then goes to communicate with the spirits of the forest in order to guide her to the Wind Shrine . Using her yin - yang earring as a pendulum , she is then able to determine the way , leading her and Prettz into the Valley of Dragons where a huge sandstorm rages . The pair appears to be lost in the sandstorm when Linaly gets telepathically contacted by her grandfather , instructing her to follow the flow of the breath of heaven , which she tells Prettz to do . However , Prettz doesn ' t understand what this should mean and ends up rushing through the sandstorm , being swept away in the end , while Linaly allows herself to be carried by the winds flow that places her safely on the road to the crystal . After fetching Prettz who had been half - buried in the sand , the pair continues on their journey , arriving at the floating Wind Shrine . Feeling it to be impossible to enter the Shrine like that , Prettz takes off , telling Linaly to wait for him . Linaly then goes on to examine the area , successfully finding some stone plates covered beneath sand that are labeled with the four cardinal points . Skipping around on them , Linaly seemingly triggers a reaction before the scene cuts over to Prettz who has taken Rouge and her crew hostages and captured their airship with the use of his bombs . He forces them to fly to the Wind Shrine , being proud of his idea to reach the entrance that way , but is disappointed when he finds that Linaly has already reached the entrance with the rising stone plates . Rouge then swears revenge , while Prettz and Linaly set off to enter the Wind Shrine with their motorcycle . Rouge also comments that the Wind Shrine surely holds some nice treasure before she is interrupted by her crew telling her that another airship is arriving , namely the Iron Wing , flagship of Tycoon ' s air force . On the Iron Wing , Valkus notices the destruction caused to the Wind Shrine by Prettz crashing the pirates airship in it , as well as the wind in the valley being unnaturally still . He deduces from that that criminals have entered the Shrine in order to steal the Wind Crystal , and prepares to apprehend them when they come out . Prettz in the meanwhile has to notice that riding a motorcycle in a temple isn ' t the brightest of ideas after nearly falling of a ledge . Continuing on foot , the pair makes it ' s way to a pathway that consists of tilted pillars , where Prettz comments on how they ' ll never make it over this gap . Linaly on the other hand shows courage , and bravely jumps over the gap , reaching the first pillar only by a hair . Shocked by this , Prettz also promptly jumps over in an attempt to rescue Linaly , but ends up in a similarly helpless situation . Lucky for the two , this triggers a mechanism that moves the pillars to an upright position , enabling the two to reach the Wind Crystal . Meanwhile , Valkus receives a message stating that Istory , Walse and Karnak have all three failed to protect their respective crystal and had had them stolen from them , leading to chaos and mayhem breaking out in their vicinity . Valkus then states that it has top priority that at least he and his men manage to protect the Wind Crystal . The scene then once more shifts to show us the interior of a dark and creepy place while a robotic voice comments that said three crystals are in their possession , and that it is only a matter of time before they obtain the last one . A man then comments upon this with a laugh before inquiring the status of another project and saying that his body aches with excitement . Back to Linaly and Prettz , the two have troubles reaching the crystal . When Linaly finally manages to touch the crystal , it begins to flash violently and shows the two a vision of a man in dark holding a sword and approaching the grave of an old man , presumably Cid Previa . The vision then goes on to show the figure smashing the dead Cid ' s skull and afterwards holding his brain , while showing shots of a terrified Mid Previa as well as a blurry image of the four initial Warriors of Light , namely from left to right Galuf Halm Baldesion , Faris Scherwiz , Bartz Klauser and Lenna Charlotte Tycoon , before ending with a crying Mid . The Crystal then stops glowing , prompting Linaly to approach it once more . The scene then briefly cuts to Castle Tycoon where the Blue Mage comments about how all the countries that have lost their Crystals are being ravished by natural disasters , to which they can not react . He also mentions that if the Crystals are not restored in time , the world would come to an end , bringing destruction to everything . The Queen then questions who would do such a thing before repeating that they have to protect the Wind Crystal at all costs . Going back to the Wind Crystal , Linaly is just about to take it up as it starts to react to her and begins to enter her body . Terrified , both she and Prettz try to get it out again , but to no avail . Linaly then collapses feeling some intense stomach pain , before noticing that her butt has begun to glow embarrassingly . Worried by this , Prettz rushes to take her to the Blue Mage at Castle Tycoon whom he believes can help Linaly . The chapter then ends with the two of them jumping from the Wind Shrine on their motorcycle .
