==Story dialogue==
===World of Balance===
====Intro scene====
On-screen: Long ago, the War of the Magi reduced the world to a scorched wasteland, and magic simply ceased to exist.1000 years have passed... Iron, gunpowder, and steam engines have been rediscovered, and high technology reigns...But there are some who would enslave the world by reviving the dread destructive force known as “magic.” Can it be that those in power are on the verge of repeating a senseless and deadly mistake?
====Narshe====
VICKS: There's the town... 
WEDGE: Hard to believe an Esper's been found intact there, 1000 years after the War of the Magi...
VICKS: Think it's still alive? 
WEDGE: Probably... ...judging from the urgency of our orders. 
VICKS: And this woman, this...sorcerer. Why's she here? I heard she fried 50 of our Magitek Armored soldiers in under 3 minutes.
WEDGE: Not to worry. The Slave Crown on her head robs her of all conscious thought. She'll follow orders.
WEDGE: We'll approach from the east. Move out!
WEDGE: Let's put her on point. No sense taking any risks. Forward!
(Upon attempting to leave Narshe.)
WEDGE: The Esper's gotta be in here. Move out!
(Upon encountering the group of guards left of the inn.)
GUARD: Imperial Magitek Armor? Not even Narshe's safe anymore!
(Upon encountering the group of guards right of the inn.)
GUARD: Machine-riding, self-important swine! Take this!
(Upon encountering the group of guards by the item shop.)
GUARD: Narshe's freedom depends on us!
(Upon encountering the group of guards on the steps leaving the town north.)
GUARD: We've got 'em trapped, now!
(Upon encountering the group of guards on the steps in front of the mines north.)
GUARD: We must defend the mines!
(Upon entering the mines north.)
WEDGE: According to our source, the frozen Esper was found in a new mine shaft. ...Maybe this one...
(Upon reaching the gate in the mines.)
VICKS: I'll handle this. Stand back!
(Upon proceeding through the opened gate.)
GUARD: We won't hand over the Esper!! Whelk! Get them!
(During battle with Whelk.)
VICKS: Hold it! Think back to our briefing......
WEDGE: What about it?!
VICKS: Do you recall hearing about a monster that eats lightning......
WEDGE: ......and stores the energy in its shell!
VICKS: Right. So whatever you do, don't attack the shell!
WEDGE: Alright already!
(Upon reaching Valigarmanda.)
UNKNOWN: This is the frozen Esper...
(During scripted battle with Tritoch.)
WEDGE: Hey! What's the matter? Do you know something we don't......?
GIRL: ......
On-screen: The frozen creature began emitting an eerie light......
WEDGE: Where's that light coming from?! Uwaaaaaaa!!!!
VICKS: Hey! Wedge......where are you? W......what's happening?!
Girl: ...... ...... ......
(Upon talking to the man in the house after the battle.)
GIRL: Where am I...?
OLD MAN: Whoa! And I only just removed the crown!
GIRL: ...head...hurts...
OLD MAN: Easy! This is a Slave Crown. The others had complete control over you while you were wearing it.
GIRL: I can't remember a thing...
OLD MAN: Don't worry. It'll all come back to you...in time, that is.
GIRL: .........
On-screen: A mysterious young woman, controlled by the Empire, and born with the gift of magic......
(Upon selecting the name "TERRA".)
TERRA: My name... ...is...Terra...
OLD MAN: Impressive! I've never heard of anyone recovering this fast...!
SOLDIER: Open up! Give us back the girl and the Empire's Magitek Armor!!
SOLDIER: Open this door! We want that girl! She's an officer of the Empire!
TERRA: Empire...? Magitek Armor...?
OLD MAN: Look, I have to get you out of here! I don't have time to explain!
OLD MAN: Over here!
(Upon attempting to leave through the south entrance.)
SOLDIER: Open this door! We want that girl! She's an officer of the Empire!
(Upon talking to the old man at the exit.)
OLD MAN: Make your way out through the mines! I'll keep these brutes occupied!
(Upon walking across the bridge.)
GUARD: She's up there!
(Upon reaching being surrounded by the guards in the mines.)
GUARD: Got her!
(During the flashback.)
KEFKA: My sweet little magic user...! Uweee, he, he! With this Slave Crown I'll practically OWN you!!
KEFKA: Uwee, hee, hee! Good! Burn up everything!
GESTAHL: We stand on the brink of a major breakthrough! In the days to come, we'll witness a total revival of magic!
GESTAHL: It is our destiny, and ours alone, to take this mystic force and claim what is rightfully ours!
GESTAHL: With our new-found power, nothing can stand in our way!
SOLDIERS: Hurrah!!! Long live Emperor Gestahl!!!
OLD MAN: Took you long enough! How goes the robbing and plundering trade?
On-screen: Treasure hunter and trail-worn traveler, searching the world over for relics of the past...
(Upon selecting the name "LOCKE".)
LOCKE: I PREFER the term treasure hunting!
OLD MAN: Ha! Semantic nonsense!
LOCKE: There's a HUGE difference!
LOCKE: Anyway, were you the one who sent for me?
OLD MAN: Yeah. There's a girl I'd like you to meet.
LOCKE: ......!? This better not have anything to do with that Magitek-riding, imperial...witch!!!
OLD MAN: Imperial troops are pursuing her even as we speak. This town is no match for the Empire. Our independence can only be assured if we join forces with the Returners, an underground resistance movement. That girl wasn't responsible for her actions. We must get her to understand our dilemma!
LOCKE: All right... I think we'd better help her...
OLD MAN: Agreed. Make your way first to Figaro, and talk to the king.
GUARD: Now we gotcha!
LOCKE: Wonderful... There's a whole bunch of 'em...
MOOGLES: Kupo...
LOCKE: Moogles...! Are you saying you want to help me?
MOOGLES: Kupo!!!
MOOGLE: Use us to save Terra from the guards! Need more information?
* (Upon selecting "Yes".)MOOGLE: You'll fight using 3 different groups. Press the Y Button to switch between them. Your job is to defeat the commander of the guards before his men reach Terra. Save her, or else...
* (Upon selecting "No", skip to battle.)
(Upon talking to Terra.)
TERRA: Unh...
(If the guards reach Terra first.)
LOCKE: Couldn't hold out...?! Uh oh...
(Upon defeating the commander.)
LOCKE: Thanks, Moogles! We're in your debt!
(Upon reaching the exit.)
LOCKE: I think this switch'll...
LOCKE: Eh? You back with us now?!
TERRA: You...saved me?
LOCKE: Save your thanks for the Moogles!
TERRA: Uhh...I can't remember anything...past or present...
LOCKE: You have amnesia?!
TERRA: A man said my memory would come back...
LOCKE: Give it time. You're safe with me! I give you my word! 
TERRA: ???
LOCKE: I won't leave you until your memory returns!! By the way, this secret entrance might be useful some day. Don't forget about it!
(Upon attempting to re-enter the town.)
GUARD: Eh?......Who might you be?
LOCKE: This is the pits. We'd better hightail it southward, to Figaro.
====Figaro Castle====
(Upon entering Figaro Castle.)
SOLDIER: Wait! Hey! Oh, it's you. Proceed.
(Upon talking to EDGAR on the castle throne.)
MAN: You mean, THIS young woman...?!
TERRA: Who do you think you are?
MAN: Oh...sorry!
MAN: How rude of me to turn my back to a lady!
On-screen: The young king of Figaro Castle, ally to the Empire, and a master designer of machinery...
(Upon selecting the name "EDGAR".)
EDGAR: I am Edgar, King of Figaro.
LOCKE: Surprised someone like me knows a king?
LOCKE: Talk to you later!
EDGAR: So...you're an Imperial soldier! No problem. Figaro and the Empire are allies! Please, relax while you're here. It's not in my blood to harm a lady.
TERRA: Look, why are you helping me? Is it because of my...abilities?
EDGAR: I'll give you 3 reasons: First of all, your beauty has captivated me! Second...I'm dying to know if I'm your type... 
I guess your...abilities...would be a distant 3rd.
TERRA: ......? What's with you, anyway?
EDGAR: Guess my technique's getting a bit rusty...
TERRA: Hmm...I suppose a normal girl would have found him dashing. But I'm hardly...normal...
(Upon talking to the matron in the bedroom in the left tower.)
MATRON: Edgar has a twin brother. He was such a nice boy...
(During the flashback.)
YOUTH: Brother, What's wrong with father? What's all this talk of his successor?
EDGAR: Are you blind? Look how thin his face has become!
YOUTH: ?......What is it?
YOUTH: Brother!
YOUTH: Tears......?!
On-screen: Edgar's twin brother, who traded the throne for his own freedom...
(Upon selecting the name "Sabin".)
MATRON: Yes... His name is Sabin. Oh, he looked so like his father! When he ran away, he was a sweet little child. I wonder what he's like now?
(Upon talking to EDGAR after previously talking to the matron about SABIN.)
EDGAR: Well? How do you like my castle?
SOLDIER: King Edgar! Someone from the Empire to see you!
EDGAR: Probably Kefka!
KEFKA: Phooey! Emperor Gestahl's stupid orders!
KEFKA: Edgar, you pinhead! Why do you have to live in the middle of nowhere? These recon jobs are the pits!
KEFKA: Ahem...there's SAND on my boots!
SOLDIERS: Yes, Sir! All set, Sir!
KEFKA: Idiots!
SOLDIER: Sir Kefka!? What on earth do...
KEFKA: Outta my way!
(Upon talking to the soldiers next to KEFKA.)
* EDGAR: I thought we were allies! What are you doing in my domain?
* EDGAR: You've been busy down south! Looking for more cities to destroy?TROOPER: That's for us to know!
(Upon talking to KEFKA.)
EDGAR: What brings Kefka, humble servant of Emperor Gestahl, into our lowly presence?
KEFKA: A girl of no importance recently escaped from us. We heard she found refuge here...
EDGAR: Hmm...this wouldn't have anything to do with this "witch" everyone's been whispering about, would it?
KEFKA: Lies! She...merely stole something of minor value. Is she here?
EDGAR: That's a tough one!
EDGAR: You see, there're more girls here than grains of sand out there. I can't keep track of 'em all!
KEFKA: I'd hate to be you if we find out you're lying... Mwa, ha!
KEFKA: I truly hope nothing happens to your precious Figaro...!
(Upon talking to LOCKE after KEFKA leaves.)
LOCKE: I'd say that guy's missing a few buttons...
EDGAR: ...Where's Terra?
EDGAR: Take her to her room...
EDGAR: I'd love to chat with you, but the Chancellor and I must plan our strategy. Sometimes I hate being a king! If you'll excuse me.
LOCKE: Follow me.
(Upon talking to LOCKE after following him.)
LOCKE: Don't you worry 'bout a thing! I'll...
TERRA: You're Locke, right? Edgar told me about you. Is it true you're a thief?
LOCKE: That's TREASURE HUNTER!
LOCKE: On the surface, Edgar pretends to support the Empire. The truth is, he's collaborating with the Returners, an organization opposed to the Empire. I am his contact with that group...
LOCKE: The old man you met in Narshe is one of us.
TERRA: Empire...but I'm a soldier of the Empire...!
LOCKE: That's not true! They were using you! Things are different now.
TERRA: I don't understand... What should I do?
LOCKE: I can't tell you what to do. You don't have to decide right now. You'll soon find your way...
TERRA: But how will I know which way is right...
EDGAR: ...? What the...?!
EDGAR: What's happening?
SOLDIER: It's the Empire! It's Kefka!
EDGAR: What are you doing?
(Upon talking to KEFKA.)
KEFKA: Bring me the girl. Now!
EDGAR: I don't know what you're talking about!
KEFKA: Then... welcome to my barbecue!! Uwa ha ha ha!
(Upon talking to either of the two Imperial soldiers.)
TROOPER: Fire! Fire! Heh, heh heh...
(Upon talking to the Figaro soldiers running near KEFKA.)
Soldier: FIRE!!!
(Upon talking to the Figaro soldier atop the castle grounds.)
EDGAR: Get ready...!
SOLDIER: Yes, Sir!
KEFKA: Changed your mind...?
EDGAR: I guess I have no choice...
EDGAR: Or maybe I do!
KEFKA: Ackk! Shameful that a king should flee, leaving his people behind! How utterly delightful!
EDGAR: Jump!
EDGAR: OK! Dive now!!!
LOCKE: Yahoooo!
SOLDIER: Figaro Submerge Mode engaged! 
CHANCELLOR: No one can touch the people of Figaro!
KEFKA: Go!! GET THEM!
(Upon defeating the M-TekArmor boss.)
EDGAR: Bravo, Figaro!!!
KEFKA: Son of a submariner! They'll pay for this...
LOCKE: This is great! 
TERRA: Was that a bad person? I... I'm scared...
EDGAR: Terra, there's someone I'd like you to meet...!
LOCKE: We're members of the Returners.
EDGAR: Our mentor, Banon, would certainly like to meet you. "Magic" is going to be the key to winning this war.
TERRA: "Magic"...
EDGAR: Terra has magical powers. That Esper seemed to...react to her. Can there be some connection?
TERRA: I haven't the foggiest! It just seems natural to me that I have the use of this power...
EDGAR: But no HUMAN is born with the powers you seem to have, and...
EDGAR: I apologize.
TERRA: What should I do...?
EDGAR: I'm sure the Empire is going to come after you... If they get their hands on you again, the world's finished... Terra, you want to understand your own powers, right?
EDGAR: Then I think we need to consult with Banon.
TERRA: ......
LOCKE: Please...
EDGAR: OK! To the south there's a cave that leads to South Figaro.
====South Figaro Cave====
(Upon talking to the guard outside South Figaro Cave, if the player has not yet completed Figaro Castle.)
SOLDIER: This cave leads to South Figaro. It's closed now due to construction.
(Upon talking to the guard outside South Figaro Cave, after completing Figaro Castle.)
SOLDIER: King EDGAR! Where are you headed?
EDGAR: Through the cave, and eastward to South Figaro.
EDGAR: Return to the castle, and tell the others we're safe.
SOLDIER: Yes, Sir! Take care!
====Mt. Kolts====
(Upon talking to Vargas.)
VARGAS: SABIN sent you, right?
LOCKE: Who're YOU?
EDGAR: SABIN? Is he here?
LOCKE: You were shadowing us earlier, right?
VARGAS: Brilliant!
VARGAS: And how unlucky it is that you have run into me...!
(Sometimes during battle with Vargas.)
VARGAS: Come on. What's the matter?
(After Vargas loses 700-800 HP.)
VARGAS: Enough!! Off with ya now!
SABIN: Give it up, Vargas!
VARGAS: Is that you, Sabin?!
SABIN: Vargas, why'd you do it? How could you do your own father in like that?!
VARGAS: Fool! He made the mistake of choosing you as his successor! He snubbed me, his only son!
SABIN: No! You were the one he chose!
VARGAS: You're a liar!
SABIN: Our Master wanted you to be his successor, not me. He appreciated your fine spirit......
VARGAS: Enough of your lies! Now, have a taste of my superior technique!
VARGAS: Mortal Attack! Blizzard Fist!
VARGAS: Ahh, Sabin! The master taught you well!
SABIN:: I guess there's no avoiding this!
VARGAS: Fate made us train together, and fate will send you to your doom!
(When Sabin is afflicted by Condemned; occurs once.)
VARGAS: Phew... I tire of this!
(When not using Pummel.)
SABIN: The Master's teachings...... Must use a Blitz technique......
On-screen: Choose Blitz, press the Control Pad left, right, left, then press the A Button!
On-screen: How to use "Blitz":
1. Choose "Blitz" and press the A Button.
2. When the cursor appears, enter your technique.
3. Using the Control Pad, press left, right, and left again.
4. Finally, press the A Button to engage the attack.
5. If you make a mistake, nothing will happen. Relax, there's no need to hurry!
SABIN: Choose Blitz, press the Control Pad left right left, then press A!
(Sometimes during the battle thereafter.)
VARGAS: There's no going back!
(Upon using Pummel.)
VARGAS: W......what the......?! He......already taught you that?!
SABIN:: If only you hadn't been in such a rush for power......
(After the battle ends.)
EDGAR: SABIN!!!
SABIN: Big brother?
LOCKE: The brothers are reunited!
TERRA: Younger... "brother"? At first glance I thought he was some bodybuilder who had strayed from his gym...
SABIN: Bodybuilder?!
SABIN: I'll...take that as a compliment...
SABIN: Anyway, brother, what are you doing here?
EDGAR: We're on the way to the Sabil mountains.
SABIN: To the Returner hideout, no doubt?
SABIN: I've been watching from afar, hoping that the world might regain some sanity... At this rate, Figaro will be reduced to a puppet state.
EDGAR: Our time to strike back has arrived. The Empire's going to pay for what it has done...
SABIN: Think a "bear" like me could help you in your fight?
EDGAR: You'd...join us? SABIN...!!
SABIN: I think Duncan would rest easier if he knew his disciple played a part in bringing peace to the world.
LOCKE: Let's get going!
(Upon attempting to return to Mt. Kolts after leaving toward the Returner's Hideout.)
TROOPER: Scum! You're Returners!
====Returners' Hideout====
(Upon talking to the Returners inside the entrance.)
RETURNER: King EDGAR! This way, please!
(Upon talking to the Returner in the hideout's main room.)
RETURNER: Not even the Empire'd think of looking here for us!
(Upon talking to the Returner guarding the top-left bridge.)
RETURNER: Did you speak with Banon?
(Upon talking to Banon.)
EDGAR: Banon! We brought the girl with us.
BANON: Is she the girl who can talk to Espers...?!
TERRA: Espers...?
EDGAR: Seemed the Empire had complete control over her.
BANON: Carrier pigeons brought word that she wiped out 50 of the Empire's best soldiers in a few minutes.
TERRA: That's a lie!!!
LOCKE: TERRA!
EDGAR: Banon! She doesn't remember ANYTHING!
BANON: Stay where you are!
BANON: Perhaps you've heard this story? Once, when people were pure and innocent, there was a box they were told never to open. But one man went and opened it anyway. He unleashed all the evils of the world: envy... greed... pride... violence... control... All that was left in the box was a single ray of light: Hope.
TERRA: ......
BANON: We now confront those evils... And you are that last ray of light, our only hope...
EDGAR: Banon!
BANON: I'm so tired... Let me rest a while.
(Upon talking to Locke.)
LOCKE: Someone important to me was jailed by the Empire. I've hated the Empire ever since... I joined the Returners when I realized the Empire was rotten to the core. I wanted to make a difference.
TERRA: But...I have no significant "other" in my life...
LOCKE: That's not entirely true. Besides, I'm sure there are people who feel YOU'RE important to them! They are counting on you...
(Upon talking to the Returner guarding the main entrance.)
RETURNER: We're a small organization now, but our membership is starting to soar.
(Upon talking to the Returner in the hideout's main room.)
RETURNER: The Empire is arresting Returners everywhere. We have to discover some means of fighting back, or...
(Upon interacting with the table in the main room.)
On-screen: Someone dropped a scrap of paper...
* (Upon selecting "Toss it in the trash.", paper removed.)
* (Upon selecting "Leave it there.", paper remains.)
(Upon talking to the Returner in the hideout's top room.)
RETURNER: Please join us in our battle!
(Upon talking to Sabin.)
SABIN: The only thing I can add is that you can trust my brother implicitly. He's always been fair with me. You can trust him, TERRA... But don't you DARE tell him I said that!
(Upon talking to Edgar.)
EDGAR: It's gonna be tough to talk you into helping us... If we push you too hard, we're no different than the Empire... So we want you to make up your own mind.
(Upon talking to the Returner guarding the main entrance after talking to LOCKE, SABIN, and EDGAR.)
RETURNER: Banon? He went outside a moment ago.
(Upon talking to Banon outside the hideout, first few times.)
BANON: Have you made a decision? Will you become our last ray of hope?
* (Upon selecting "Yes".)BANON: You will? Really!!TERRA: But... I'm scared...BANON: The person who possesses this relic need not fear harm.BANON: Please, TERRA... I'd like you to take it with you.TERRA: What is this???BANON: A lucky charm. Take it!On-screen: Received "Gauntlet"!BANON: I have a plan! Please get everyone together!(Proceed to war meeting scene.)
** (If selected after being asked three times.)
* (Upon selecting "No". Answer changes each time.)
** (First time.)BANON: I see...
** (Second time.)BANON: I thought as much...
** (Third time.)BANON: You're sure about this?TERRA: Hope... How can anyone put their hope in me?(Proceed to wounded Returner scene.)
(Upon speaking to the Returner in the top room after rejecting Banon once or twice.)
RETURNER: I understand your unease. But even as we speak, innocent lives are being lost... Please. We need your abilities. This relic will keep you safe.
On-screen: Received "Genji Glove"!
(Upon talking to him again.)
RETURNER: We truly need your help!
(War meeting scene. Only plays if the player selected "Yes" to Banon.)
(If the paper on the table was found by the player, and the player selected "Leave it there." at the start of the meeting.)
BANON: Who did this? Who left this piece of paper here?
BANON: Right...
(After the previous line, or if the paper was removed or never found.)
BANON: We all know that the Empire is using Magitek power in battle. The point is, how has the Emperor created it?
EDGAR: I had LOCKE look into the rumor that the Empire is forcing the world's finest scholars to study Espers.
LOCKE: All the trouble in Narshe is over an Esper, too...
TERRA: You mean there's some connection between Espers and Magitek?
BANON: I can only recall one thing linking Espers with Magitek power...
EDGAR: You don't mean...
BANON: Indeed! The ancient War of the Magi...
UNKNOWN: "No!" "It can't be!"
LOCKE: My Grandma used to tell me stories about magical machines... Could they have been true?
EDGAR: Could that ancient tragedy be playing out once again...
BANON: It's just speculation... But historical studies have provided a number of conflicting and frightening theories... According to one theory, humans and machines were imbued with powers drained from Espers...
TERRA: That could explain Magitek power...
EDGAR: We can only fight Magitek enemies with Magitek weapons...
BANON: It's risky, but if we have TERRA...speak with that Esper, it might just wake up...
EDGAR: I wonder if that's wise...?
BANON: Who can say? Regardless, we need TERRA's help.
LOCKE: TERRA...
TERRA: I'll do it!
SABIN: What nonsense! You sound as if you're enjoying this!
BANON: What? What's that noise?
RETURNER: Emergency! Sir Banon...
(Wounded Returner scene. If the player selected "No" three times, this scene plays first. Scene plays either way, with the dialogue ordered slightly differently depending on how the scene was triggered.)
* (If the scene triggered after the player selected "No" three times.)RETURNER: S...South Figaro...BANON: What's going on? What happened?
* (If the scene triggered after the war meeting scene.)BANON: What's going on? What happened?BANON: Someone did a number on him...RETURNER: S...South Figaro...
RETURNER: E...Empire...took Figaro... Coming...this way...unnnh...
BANON: They've found us... We haven't a moment to lose!
EDGAR: LOCKE!
LOCKE: I know... "Someone" has to sneak into South Figaro and slow the Empire down, right?
EDGAR: This's right up your alley! Good luck!
LOCKE: TERRA... Please wait for me... And...please... ...don't let a lecherous young king, who shall remain nameless, near you!
EDGAR: LOCKE!!!
SABIN: Big brother... Aren't you EVER going to grow up?
BANON: What're we going to do?
EDGAR: We'll escape down the Lete River, and make our way to Narshe. I want to see that Esper for myself...
BANON: Right. There's a raft by the back entrance. It's a gamble, but we're fresh out of options...
EDGAR: You're in danger here. Come with us to Narshe. You'll probably even gain some understanding of your own abilities...
BANON: We've no time to dilly-dally. Let's make for Narshe!
(After the scene plays, if the player had not already obtained the relic from the Returner in the top room.)
RETURNER: I understand your unease. But even as we speak, innocent lives are being lost... Please. We need your abilities. This relic will keep you safe.
On-screen: Received "Genji Glove"!
====Lete River====
(Upon reaching the raft.)
PARTY: Here we go! This raft'll take us to Narshe!
On-screen: Hop aboard the raft?
* (Upon selecting "Yes", begin.)
* (Upon selecting "No", nothing happens.)
(After boarding the raft.)
On-screen: Head toward Narshe, but protect Banon at all costs. If Banon is put out of commission, your journey's over.
(Upon reaching the first fork.)
On-screen: Which way?
* (Upon selecting "(Straight)", travel straight.)
* (Upon selecting "(Left)", travel left.)
* (Upon selecting "(Right)", travel right.)
(Upon reaching the second fork.)

* (Upon selecting "(Up)", travel up.)
* (Upon selecting "(Left)", travel left.)
(Upon encountering Ultros.)
PARTY: What? WHAT IS IT?
ULTROS: Uwee hee hee... Game over! Don't tease the octopus, kids!
(Sometimes if Ultros is hit with Fire.)
ULTROS: Yaaooouch! Seafood soup!
(Sometimes before Ultros hits Terra.)
ULTROS: Delicious morsel! Let me get my bib...!
(Sometimes before Ultros hits Sabin.)
ULTROS: Muscle-heads? Hate 'em!
(Sometimes before Ultros hits Banon.)
ULTROS: Y...you frighten me!
(Upon defeating Ultros.)
ULTROS: Th...that's all, friends!
SABIN: I guess we thrashed it.
EDGAR: Don't bet on it...... It's probably just hiding from us......
TERRA: Ewww!! Something's stuck to my leg!
EDGAR: TERRA! Over here!
BANON: It's all right now.
SABIN: Watch out! I'm going to hit it with a Blitz!
EDGAR: No! SABIN!!
SABIN: Don't distract me, brother!!
EDGAR: He's always been a tad zealous......
TERRA: SABIN......!!!
BANON: Don't worry about him!
EDGAR: Are you sure he's okay, Banon?
BANON: You should know better than any of us! Any moment he'll flop right onto the raft!
SABIN: What the...?
BANON: ............
EDGAR: Seems a little too perky...... Ha...!
TERRA: SABIN!!!!!
EDGAR: SABIN!!!! Take care of yourself!
PARTY: SABIN!!!
MOG: EDGAR and TERRA race toward Narshe while protecting Banon... ...but what about SABIN, who was swallowed by the raging waters...? And... ...how is LOCKE faring, after having penetrated the Empire's defenses in South Figaro... Is all going according to plan...?
MOG: Choose a scenario...kupo!
====Locke's scenario====
On-screen: Locke has worked hard to stymie the efforts of the Imperial troops. But now he desperately needs to escape...
LOCKE: Nuts! Gotta get to Narshe on the fly...
(After being KO'd at any point in the scenario before finding Celes.)

GHOST: You can't escape... Nowhere to run... Nowhere to hide...
PARTY: Bloody persistent...!
CYAN: I believe we're stuck!
SABIN: I know!
CYAN: You have an idea?
SABIN: Okay... The time has come to see if all my training has paid off. Come, CYAN!

SABIN: Food! Food! Bring me everything ya got!

* (Upon selecting "(Yes, please!)".)WAITER: One moment, please.(Depending on overworld character.)
** SABIN: Food! Chop! Let's go slop the hogs!
** CYAN: A...are you going to be okay if you eat THIS?
** SHADOW: ...... Interceptor...are you hungry?
** (Ghost has no dialogue.)
* (Upon selecting "(No, thanks)", nothing happens.)
(After eating again.)

(Upon attempting to upon the treasure chest guarded by Ziegfried.)
VOICE: Stop where you are!
MAN: I am Ziegfried, the world's greatest swordsman! That treasure chest is mine. If I were you, Ox, I'd grab grandpa, here, and run!
SABIN: You look more like a manicurist. Now SCRAM!!!
ZIEGFRIED: Aha! The ox bellows! Allow me to introduce my blade!
(During battle with Siegfried.)
SIEGFRIED: Go! Guys!! Ha, ha, ha! Give up?
SIEGFRIED: Ha, ha, ha! Give up?
(Upon defeating Siegfried.)

(Upon reading the writing on the left of the engine room.)
PARTY: Something's written here! What? What?
On-screen: To stop the train, shut the first and third pressure valves, and operate the switch outside, near the smoke stack.
(Upon attempting to throw the switch to stop Phantom Train without shutting the correct pressure valves.)
PARTY: Just throw this switch, and... Huh? Nothing's happening!
(Upon attempting to throw the switch to stop Phantom Train without shutting the correct pressure valves.)
PARTY: Press this switch and the train'll stop.
PHANTOM TRAIN: So! You've been slowing my progress!
(Upon defeating Phantom Train.)
PHANTOM TRAIN: I will let you go... ...but first there is something I must do...
CYAN: Gulp...where are we?
SABIN: Hoo, boy! Finally got off...
SABIN: We shouldn't be here. Let's go NOW!
CYAN: No!!! Elayne! Owain!!

(Upon talking to Cyan.)
CYAN: ......
(Upon talking to Shadow.)
SHADOW: Leave 'em alone.
(Upon reaching the edge of Baren Falls.)
SABIN: This must be Baren Falls.
CYAN: To the south is the Veldt. Dangerous creatures there.
SABIN: And the Empire's right on our tails.
CYAN: If we can slip through the Veldt, we can reach the town of Mobliz, to the east...
(If Shadow was still in the party.)
SHADOW: I have served my purpose...
SABIN: Shadow!
SABIN: Thanks for your help! Let's join ranks again some time!
(Upon interacting with the edge of the falls.)

GAU: Who be LOCKE? He bad man? Maybe he try steal my treasure!
SABIN: LOCKE? Well, he's......
SABIN: Listen when someone's talking to you!
CYAN: I think he's trying to tell us something!
SABIN: Urgh......all right......carry on......

GAU: Now, we go Crescent Mountain! Shiny thing, there!
CYAN: Look, let's just go along with him to this Crescent Mountain.
SABIN: Phew......why'd we invite him along, anyway...?
GAU: Mr. Thou! Hurry up! We're leaving!!
SABIN: Hey! I told you once, I'm not Mr. Thou!!!
KAPPA: Here's how to build up GAU's skills.
1. Choose "Leap", a command that only appears when you are on the Veldt.
2. Keep fighting on the Veldt, and GAU will reappear. He'll have learned the...
3. ...attacks of the monsters you were fighting when he leapt and returned!
GAU: Uwaau~!!
KAPPA: 4. Choose the command "Rage" and you can use any of the attacks he's learned.
And now, please continue your quest!
(Upon entering Crescent Mountain.)
SABIN: CYAN! The shiny thing GAU spoke of is in here.
CYAN: Uh, Sir GAU, where exactly is it?
GAU: GAU...forget!!
SABIN: Shall we look around?
CYAN: Indeed!
(Upon interacting with an area with no treasure.)
SABIN: Not over here...
(Upon interacting with an area with Tonic.)
SABIN: Tonic... 
CYAN: T...this is Sir GAU's treasure?!
(Upon reaching the top-left part of the mountain's main room.)
SABIN: Hey, GAU. What's wrong?
GAU: GAU!!
SABIN: G'uh! My pouch! There was 500 GP in it...!
SABIN: Gau...YOU!
* (If the player has more than 500 GP.)CYAN: Oh, dear. Sir SABIN, let me handle this.SABIN: Urggggh!
* (If the player has less than 500 GP.)'CYAN: 'Sir SABIN... Recall that you had me hold onto your pouch. Here.
(Upon reaching the helmet.)
CYAN: Is this it? GAU's "treasure"?
GAU: Treasure...yesss...
CYAN: Looks like glass...
SABIN: Looks like it just might fit...
SABIN: Hummm... Is this of any use?
SABIN: Will this really let us breathe underwater?
SABIN: Let's go!
CYAN: Current's...fast.
SABIN: No kidding.
SABIN: But unless we hop in, we won't see our friends again...
SABIN: Let's go!
(Upon talking to the dancer in the pub in Nikeah.)
DANCER: Yoo hoo! You handsome thing. How 'bout joining me? Tee hee!
CYAN: H...how dare you... you licentious howler!
DANCER: Geez, don't blow an artery, baby!
CYAN: B...baby?!
SABIN: Cyan... Don't let it get to you.
CYAN: I'm not like that!
SABIN: No one thinks you are. Just let it go.
DANCER: Stop whispering! My ears are burnin', baby!
CYAN: Enough! Have you no shame? I'll have you know...etc...etc.
DANCER: Goodness!
(Upon talking to the sailor at Nikeah.)
NPC: South Figaro-bound ferry.
* (Upon selecting "(Still need to shop.)", do not travel.)
* (Upon selecting "(Hop aboard?)", travel.)
(While on the ferry to Narshe.)
CYAN: Narshe is just a stone's throw away!
SABIN: I hope the others arrived safely!
CYAN: I'm sure they did.
GAU: Me hope so, too...
====Narshe (siege)====
On-screen: The three have reached Narshe, and a decisive battle is about to take place...
ELDER: I understand all of it... Except... How can WE be encouraging bloodshed?
ARVIS: I never said...that!
ELDER: Something like it.
BANON: Ha! He's right you know!
ARVIS: Banon!
BANON: Our blood will spill because of you.
BANON: Emperor Gestahl's racing to acquire Magitek power. He's set his sights on the Esper that was found here! The increased use of magitek power'll surely lead to global destruction...
ELDER: The War of the Magi...
UNKNOWN: The mythical battle that set mankind back a thousand years... Can this really be happening?
ELDER: People will never learn...
SABIN: Brother!
EDGAR: SABIN! You're all right!
EDGAR: Who's with you?
CYAN: I'm CYAN, retainer to the lord of Doma!
GAU: GAU...GAU!
SABIN: The people of Doma were wiped out by the Empire...
CYAN: Kefka poisoned...everyone...
ELDER: Barbaric!
BANON: Elder!
ELDER: But...that was only because Doma was collaborating with the Returners! If we make that mistake...
LOCKE: That's nonsense!!
TERRA: LOCKE!
LOCKE: The Empire's poised to attack Narshe right now!
EDGAR: What?!
BANON: LOCKE. Where'd you hear that?
LOCKE: CELES, here, was one of the Empire's generals...
CYAN: Grrr! I knew she seemed familiar. Sir GAU, out of my way!
CYAN: This's General CELES! She torched Maranda! She's an Imperial spy! Now, stand aside!
LOCKE: WAIT! CELES has joined the Returners! She's fighting with us, now!
CYAN: But...!
LOCKE: I promised I'd protect her. I WILL NOT back out on my word.
EDGAR: LOCKE... Are you still thinking about... that?
TERRA: I was also an Imperial soldier.
CYAN: WHAT!!
EDGAR: The Empire's evil. But not ALL of its citizens are!
SABIN: Oh, this is...
GUARD: Emergency!! The Empire cometh!!
KEFKA: I don't care what you do here, JUST GET ME THAT ESPER!!
SOLDIER: Lord Kefka! There're civilians here...!
KEFKA: Exterminate everyone!
SOLDIER: But Narshe is neutral...
KEFKA: Idiot!!
KEFKA: Read my lips!! Dispose of any who oppose us! March!
ELDER: We really have no choice. Let's make ready for war!
BANON: They're after the Esper.
ELDER: We moved it into the hills.
EDGAR: Then we're going up after it!
EDGAR: LOCKE has a complicated past. I wouldn't go thinking he's fallen for you or something!
CELES: I'm a soldier, not some love-starved twit!
EDGAR: Cold as ice......
CELES: So, you were born with the power of magic!? Isn't it a lovely gift...
TERRA: You...can use magic, too?
CELES: When I was a baby I was artificially infused with magic, and raised as a Magitek Knight.
TERRA: Have you...loved anyone?
CELES: ??? What's that supposed to mean?!
CYAN: Don't think for a moment I trust you!
CELES: Fine. Use your own eyes, then decide.
(Upon talking to Banon.)
BANON: Prepared?
* (Upon selecting "Yes", begin siege.)
* (Upon selecting "No", nothing happens.)
(When siege begins.)
MOG: Save the Esper from Kefka! Need some info?
* (Upon selecting "Yes".)MOG: You'll fight in 3 groups. Use the Y Button to switch between them. Defeat Kefka before his men reach Banon. Otherwise, you lose!
* (Upon selecting "No", skip.)
(After forming three parties.)
BANON: They're coming!
KEFKA: Oho!! It's General CELES, the traitor! How delightful! This'll be fun!
KEFKA: Go!! Get those vile insects!
(Upon talking to Banon during the siege.)
BANON: We're history if they reach me! Good luck!
(Upon talking to other party leaders during the siege. Line depends on the party's leader being spoken to.)
* TERRA: Kefka... He stuck that crown on me?
* LOCKE: Bloody Empire!! We are your worst enemy!
* CELES: I'm free... The Empire can't control me!
* EDGAR: Kefka...grr... What's he up to...?
* SABIN: Master Duncan's techniques mustn't fail me.
* CYAN: I will avenge the people of Doma!!
* GAU: Gau hit hard!!!
(If Imperial soldiers reach Banon.)
BANON: Couldn't hold out!? I have a bad feeling about this...
(Upon defeating Kefka.)
KEFKA: Don't think you won. I'll be back!
KEFKA: Aack!! I won't forget this!
EDGAR: Where's the Esper?
LOCKE: Is it okay?
EDGAR: That was a close call!
CYAN: Can it still be alive?
SABIN: Impossible...right?!
LOCKE: TERRA!! What is it!?
TERRA: Nooo!!
SABIN: TERRA 'n the Esper...
EDGAR: There's...some kinda reaction!
TERRA: What!? What am I feeling?!
TERRA: Huh? W......what's going on......?
TERRA: Please......tell me! Who am I? WHO?!
LOCKE: TERRA!
CELES: An Esper......I can actually feel its mind......
EDGAR: TERRA......Step away from the Esper......
LOCKE: Unhh...
CELES: You're awake?
LOCKE: ... Where's TERRA?!
CELES: She changed into a...something, and...took off. She looked like...
CELES: She looked like... an Esper...
EDGAR: LOCKE! You okay?
EDGAR: Something happened to TERRA... There seems to be some connection between Espers and her... Anyway, we need to find her. Witnesses saw her screaming across the sky to the west.
LOCKE: Let's go! I promised her I'd...
CELES: LOCKE...
EDGAR: Think, people! The Empire still wants that Esper.
SABIN: Banon needs our help, too...
CYAN: A former Imperial soldier... But we've no choice. We must help her!
EDGAR: Let's split up. Those who aren't searching for TERRA will stay and guard Narshe. Figaro Castle can shuttle us to the western province. Then we'll make for Kohlingen or Jidoor.
====Zozo====
(Upon encountering Dadaluma.)
DADALUMA: Good day, gentle folks. Can I be of service? I hate fighting, so I'd better let you pass!
(Upon finding Terra.)
TERRA: Oooooh...gurururu...
PARTY: TERRA?
RAMUH: She's scared, you know.
PARTY: Who're you?
RAMUH: This girl is your friend?
(Depending on the party members present, based on a priority for who speaks to Ramuh as checked by the game.)
* CYAN: Is Miss TERRA okay?
* CELES: Is TERRA okay?
* GAU: TERRA...she ok?
* (Generic.)PARTY: Is TERRA all right?
RAMUH: You call her TERRA... ...TERRA?? How odd...
RAMUH: She is undamaged. But I fear she can't understand you. As for me, I am Ramuh. The Esper, Ramuh.
PARTY: ESPER!?
(Depending on the party members present, based on a priority for who speaks to Ramuh as checked by the game.)
* CELES: But don't Espers live in another world?
* GAU: Espers...from other world?
* (Generic.)PARTY: "But don't Espers live in another world?"
RAMUH: That doesn't mean we don't live here, too. Espers take a variety of forms. Sometimes we live here, taking the shape of humans. You have nothing to fear from us.
(Depending on the party members present, based on a priority for who speaks to Ramuh as checked by the game.)
* GAU: Why hide fact you Esper?
* (Generic.)PARTY: "Why do you hide the fact that you're Espers?"
RAMUH: Humans and Espers can't survive together.
(Depending on the party members present, based on a priority for who speaks to Ramuh as checked by the game.)
* LOCKE: But my grandma told me that Espers and people once lived side by side! Was that just a fairy tale?
* CELES: I heard that Espers and people once lived side by side. Was that just a fairy tale...?
* GAU: Gau hear fairy tale. People...Esper once live together peacefully...
* (Generic.)PARTY: "But grandmother once told me that Espers and people once lived side by side. Was that just a fairy tale?"
RAMUH: No, that was no fairy tale. That was true. We started out as friends. Then along came the War of the Magi...
PARTY: War of the Magi...
RAMUH: It took place...long ago. Espers fought humans who were infused with magical power extracted from Espers...
RAMUH: Fearing our magical powers would once again become a target, we fashioned a new realm, and moved there. 
RAMUH: About 20 years ago, humans stumbled upon it...humans who knew about Espers, and the secret to Magitek power.
RAMUH: Thus began a hunt for Espers. Only in this way could Emperor Gestahl create his invincible army. In response to this, we erected a doorway, and threw the humans out.
RAMUH: Even as we speak, many of my kind are trapped in the Empire's Magitek Research Facility, being... ...drained of their powers... I fled here to avoid a similar fate.
RAMUH: That's right, relax.
RAMUH: I sensed that TERRA was in trouble. My magic...summoned her here.
PARTY: "TERRA's...an Esper?"
RAMUH: No, she's actually quite different.
PARTY: "TERRA looks like she's in pain."
RAMUH: Her very existence strikes fear into her own heart.
PARTY: "How can we help her?"
RAMUH: When she accepts this aspect of herself, I think she'll be all right.
PARTY: "We have to do something!"
RAMUH: Then free those of my kind imprisoned in Gestahl's Magitek Research Facility. One of them can surely help her.
(Depending on the party members present, based on a priority for who speaks to Ramuh as checked by the game.)
* CELES: The Magitek Research Facility...? Your people are still there?!
* GAU: Magitek Research Facility...? There...your people?
* (Generic.)PARTY: "If we find the Magitek Research Facility, you're sure we'll find your people?"(If Celes is present in the party, but was not the allocated speaker.)CELES: Magitek Research Facility... Your people are...
RAMUH: Like a coward, I escaped leaving the others there. It'll be the end of them...
PARTY: "What do you mean?"
RAMUH: Gestahl's methods are incorrect. You can't drain a live Esper of all its power. It is only when we are reduced to Magicite that our abilities can be transferred in total...
PARTY: "Pardon?!"
RAMUH: When we transform into Magicite, our power can be relocated.
PARTY: "Magicite...?!"
RAMUH: That's what's left of us when we...pass away.
RAMUH: These are my comrades who fell while escaping the Empire. And I will give you my power, as well...
(Depending on the party members present, based on a priority for who speaks to Ramuh as checked by the game.)
* CELES: Ramuh... Why...?
* CYAN: He's...gone...
* SHADOW: You old fool... Why throw it all away?
* GAU: R.a.m.u.h... You leave...?
* (Generic.)PARTY: "Old man..." Are you really gone...?
PARTY: Magicite...?
(Depending on the party members present, based on a priority for who speaks to Ramuh as checked by the game.)
* CELES: He traded his power, so that others might live...
* CYAN: He traded his power, so that others might live...
* GAU: Awoooo...!
* (Generic.)PARTY: He traded his power, so that others might live...
(Upon talking to Terra.)
PARTY: TERRA...wait for us. We'll be back!
(Upon picking up Ramuh's magicite.)
PARTY: "Why are you doing this...?"
RAMUH: We few can help save many. The War of the Magi must not be repeated...
On-screen: Received the Magicite "Ramuh."
(Upon picking up the other magicite.)
* On-screen: Received the Magicite "Siren."
* On-screen: Received the Magicite "Kirin."
* On-screen: Received the Magicite "Stray."
(Upon leaving.)
PARTY: Everyone here? I was thinking, ...
EDGAR: Let's talk on the way!
EDGAR: The Empire's trying to drain magic from Espers...
SABIN: This can't be true... CELES...?
CELES: I don't remember because I was asleep when they...augmented me. But I've heard rumors to that effect.
CYAN: Then we're going in...
EDGAR: We'd best split into 2 groups. We still need to beef up our defenses in Narshe.
CYAN: Indeed.
CELES: I'll go to the Empire. I know it well...
SABIN: But alone...?
LOCKE: Don't worry, I'll go with her.
CELES: LOCKE!
CYAN: You need a hand?
(If Shadow was in the party.)
SHADOW: There's no need for me to remain with you.
(After selecting a new party.)
LOCKE: Please wait for us in Narshe. We'll find our way back safely.
PARTY: "If you wish to change group members, head for Narshe."
CELES: So...how we gonna get there? The Empire's on the continent to the south. No boats go there...
LOCKE: The people of Jidoor, a town to the south, can probably help us.
CELES: LOCKE.
LOCKE: Yes?
CELES: Why are you coming with me?
LOCKE: Well... There're bound to be treasures there. And besides, I've always wanted an inside look at the Empire!
====Jidoor====
(Upon talking to the impresario.)
IMPRESARIO: Maria!?
CELES: Are you talking to me?
IMPRESARIO: Sorry...my mistake. Wow, you could pass for Maria in a heartbeat! Hoo boy, now I really am in trouble...
PARTY: CELES looks just like Maria...?
(Upon interacting with the letter on the floor.)
PARTY: That PERSON dropped it off.
MASTER: He's the director of the operas here. Everyone just calls him "Impresario." He's been in a tizzy ever since that letter arrived.
LETTER: My Dear Maria, I want you for my wife. I'm coming for you... The Wandering Gambler
LOCKE: Who's this "Wandering..."? what's-his-name?
MASTER: You born on a farm, son?
On-screen: A blackjack-playing, world-traveling, casino-dwelling free spirit...
(Upon selecting the name "SETZER".)
MASTER: That's SETZER, owner of the world's only airship.
CELES: If we could get that airship, we'd make the Empire in no time.
LOCKE: Let's set up a meeting...with SETZER...
====Opera House====
(Upon talking to the impresario at the entrance.)
IMPRESARIO: Ah! You again!
LOCKE: I read that letter. SETZER's coming to steal her...
IMPRESARIO: He'll probably appear right at the climax of Scene 1. He loves an entrance...
LOCKE: Right! If we could only grab him then...!
IMPRESARIO: Dear me, NO! You'll ruin the performance! I'll lose my job!
CELES: Then you're history!
IMPRESARIO: This is simply horrid! I want the performance to be a success! But I don't want Maria to be abducted...!
LOCKE: We'll let him grab her...
LOCKE: We'll use CELES as a decoy. After she's abducted, I'll follow 'em right to his airship!
IMPRESARIO: Are you mad?!! If something should happen to Maria...
LOCKE: That's why the decoy! We'll hide Maria somewhere safe!
IMPRESARIO: Come again?
LOCKE: You said SHE looks like Maria, right?
CELES: Now just a minute...
LOCKE: Celes will be our Maria! She'll lead us to the airship!
IMPRESARIO: Brilliant!
CELES: W...wait! I'm a GENERAL, not some opera floozy!
CELES: Mii... Mii... Do, re, mi... Faa...hack, cough...
CELES: Maa... rii aaaa
LOCKE: Not bad, CELES!
ULTROS: Mwa, ha, ha! I'll pretend to be SETZER and foil their little plan!
LOCKE: Let's get ready! CELES, it's show time!
ULTROS: D'haaaaa! Come on! Read it...!
NPC: The West and East were waging war... 
Draco, the West's great hero, thinks of his love, Maria. 
Is she safe? Is she waiting?
DRACO: ♫ Oh Maria
Oh Maria
Please, hear my voice!
How I long to be with you! ♫
(Upon talking to the impresario before Celes's performance.)
* (If Shadow was not in the party.)LOCKE: I'm going to the dressing room.IMPRESARIO: Is everything okay?
* (If Shadow was in the party.)IMPRESARIO: Your friend left. Said he'd have fallen asleep in another 5 minutes...
(Upon talking to other party members seated before Celes's performance.)
* EDGAR: Go right ahead.
* SABIN: Uh? Why's everyone singing?
* CYAN: Going somewhere? I'm going to relax!
* GAU: Pretty song!
(Upon talking to the stage master before Celes's performance.)
STAGE MASTER: Off limits! Please turn around.
(Upon talking to the man at the entrance while the opera is ongoing.)
NPC: Performance underway.
(Upon talking to Celes backstage.)
LOCKE: Aye yai yai! Izzat...you!?
CELES: LOCKE. Why did you help me escape back there?
LOCKE: I...once abandoned someone when she needed me...
CELES: Somewhere inside you were saving...her, weren't you...?
LOCKE: That ribbon suits you.
CELES: On with the show! This is a big scene in which Maria senses that something's happened to Draco!
LOCKE: You'd better check the score one last time.
(Upon interacting with the score.)
On-screen: Read the score?
* (Upon selecting "(Yes)".)On-screen: Scene 1 Oh my hero, so far away now. Will I ever see your smile? Love goes away, like night into day. It's just a fading dream... I'm the darkness, you're the stars. Our love is brighter than the sun. For eternity, for me there can be, only you, my chosen one... Must I forget you? Our solemn promise?

SETZER: Just a darn minute!
SETZER: What a performance!!
IMPRESARIO: SETZER!
SETZER: I'm a man of my word, music man!

====Blackjack====
SETZER: I'll deal with you in a minute!
LOCKE: What a performance!
CELES: Enough already!
LOCKE: But this is the tough one! Part 2 begins now!
LOCKE: ... Where's SETZER?
CELES: He's coming.
SETZER: W...who're YOU? You're not Maria!
CELES: SETZER, we need your help. We have to go to Vector. We need this ship to get there.
SETZER: Look, if you're not Maria, I don't want you aboard.
CELES: Wait! We were told your ship is the finest vessel in the world.
LOCKE: And that you were the world's most notorious gambler...
(Depending on other party members, one of these lines will be spoken based on the priority of who is present.)
* EDGAR: I'm the King of Figaro. If you cooperate, you'll be well rewarded...
* SABIN: My brother's the King of Figaro. Cooperate, and you'll be well rewarded!
* CYAN: I'm one of Doma's Knights. Please, help us.
SETZER: Come here.
CELES: Yeah... 
SETZER: Don't misunderstand me. I'm still not sure if I'm going to help you.
(Upon talking to Setzer.)
SETZER: Phew... The Empire's made me a rich man.
CELES: Stop thinking of yourself. Many towns and villages have been smashed by the Empire.
LOCKE: The Empire's also totally rotten! It's using magic to enslave the world.
(Depending on other party members, each will speak their line if present.)
* EDGAR: The Empire and my realm were allies... until recently.
* SABIN: The Empire'll end up owning you!
* CYAN: ...I lost my friends... and my family.
SETZER: The Empire ...evil...?
CELES: We all hate the Empire for the same reasons. That's why...
SETZER: You know...you're even more stunning than Maria.
CELES: ????
SETZER: Enough! If you... If CELES becomes my wife, I'll help. Otherwise...
LOCKE: WHAT! Are you stupid!?
CELES: We haven't any choice.
SETZER: Yes! It's settled!
CELES: But I have conditions...
CELES: We'll decide with a coin toss. If it's heads, you'll help us. If it's tails, I'll go with you. Well, Mr. Gambler...?
SETZER: Oho! Fine! I accept!
LOCKE: Listen to yourself! CELES...you can't become his wife! You just can't!
* (If Cyan is present.)CYAN: That man uses people...
CELES: Ready?
CELES: I win! Now, honor your part of the bargain!
SETZER: How...unusual! A coin with identical sides...!
* (If Sabin is present.)SABIN: That coin...!? BIG BROTHER!!! Don't tell me...!
CELES: I think you've been hustled, Mr. Gambler.
SETZER: Ha! How low can you get?! I love it! All right, I'll help you. Nothing to lose but my life...
SETZER: My life is a chip in your pile! Ante up!
LOCKE: This unwieldy-looking ship really moves! Could it crash?
SETZER: When things fall, they fall! It's all a matter of fate...
LOCKE: This ship's going to stick out like a sore thumb. Better land some distance away.
SETZER: Right. I'll wait on board in case of an emergency.
====Vector====
(Upon talking to the man hiding behind the crates in front of the Magitek Research Facility entrance.)

====Magitek Research Facility====
(Upon reaching the room with Shiva and Ifrit.)
KEFKA: I'm all-powerful! Hee, hee, haw! I'm collecting Espers! I'm extracting magic! And... ... ... I'll restore the...Statues!
KEFKA: You've been completely drained of your powers! Now you're useless to me!
KEFKA: And you! Take a hike!
(After defeating Ifrit and Shiva.)
IFRIT: I sensed a kindred spirit...
SHIVA: Who're you...?
IFRIT: You have Ramuh's power...? Wait! We're...Espers...
IFRIT: Hmmm...
SHIVA: Well, Ramuh DID entrust them with his power.
(Upon talking to Ifrit after battle.)
IFRIT: Gestahl has grabbed our friends and is trying to drain them of their power. I, too, suffered my turn in one of the glass tubes...
(Upon talking to Shiva after battle.)
SHIVA: They drained our powers, then threw us away to... We haven't long to live...
(After talking to either Ifrit or Shiva after battle.)
IFRIT / SHIVA: We will follow Ramuh's lead, and give to you our power...
IFRIT / SHIVA: Our friends are all gone... We haven't much time left... No choice but to entrust you with our essences...
(Upon collecting their magicite.)
On-screen: Received the Magicite "Ifrit."
On-screen: Received the Magicite "Shiva."
(Upon pulling the lever to release the espers.)
ESPER: You want to help me... But... I haven't long to live. Just as Ifrit did before me, I'll give to you my power...
CID: What are you doing there?
CID: W...what's this!?
CID: So...Esper magical power can only truly be transferred when one of them passes away...
On-screen: Received Magicite!
CELES: Professor Cid.
CID: General CELES! And who might these dubious characters be? Your troops?
CELES: No... You see, ...
CID: Can it be true that you came here as a spy, seeking to cause an uprising?!
LOCKE: !? CELES...?
KEFKA: So that's it! Magicite... Cid, you miserable blockhead! Now...
KEFKA: General CELES!! The game's over. Bring me those Magicite shards!
LOCKE: CELES! You...deceived me?!
CELES: Of course not! Have a little faith!
* (If Cyan is in the party.)CYAN: See! I knew she couldn't be trusted!
KEFKA: G'hee, hee, hee! She has tricked you all! CELES, that's so...YOU!
CELES: LOCKE... Please believe me...
LOCKE: I... ... ...
KEFKA: NOW!!
KEFKA: Exterminate all of them!
CELES: LOCKE... Let me protect you for once... Maybe now... Now you'll believe me...
KEFKA: CELES! W...what are you doing? Stop it!!!
LOCKE: CELES...
CID: Ooh, ooh... What happened?
CID: This is a disaster! Your fighting has caused the capsules to rupture! Their contents are spilling out!
CID: Quick! Over here!
(Upon taking the elevator and following Cid.)
CID: Kefka has used me... used the Empire. What have I done...?
CID: The life-energy of those Espers...
CID: You've helped me come to a decision. I'm going to talk to the Emperor and have this stupid war stopped!
(Upon talking to Cid.)
CID: CELES... I've known her since she was a baby. I raised her as if she was my own daughter! But she was forced to become a Magitek Knight, and has done some awful things. If I could only talk to her... I'd apologize for the way her life has turned out.
CID: No! It's Kefka!
CID: GO!!
(Upon fleeing the Magitek Research Facility.)
SETZER: I was starting to worry...
SETZER: ? What's up with CELES?
LOCKE: ......
SETZER: Huh?
SETZER: We'll talk later. Let's get outta here!
KEFKA: Crud! What a mess!!
KEFKA: I don't think so...! You won't get away!
LOCKE: Let's not overstay our visit. We're outta here on the double!
SETZER: Right. Speaking of which... Maybe we should be leaving.
(Depending on the third and fourth party members, both will speak their line based on order.)
* CYAN: Whoa! What IS that?!
* EDGAR: Something horrible's coming!!
* SABIN: Uwaaoo! What in the...?
* GAU: Gau! GAU go!!
(Sometimes during the crane battle.)
;On-screen:

* Electrified LV 1
* Electrified LV 2

* Unleashed electric energy!
* Heat source LV 1
* Heat source LV 2
* Heat source LV 3
* Unleashed thermal energy!
(After defeating both cranes.)
LOCKE: I'm worried about TERRA. Let's return to Zozo.
SETZER: TERRA? Who's that?
LOCKE: I'll explain on the way... ...about TERRA...Espers...the Returners...
====Zozo (After Magitek Research Facility) ====
PARTY: We're all here...
LOCKE: TERRA...
LOCKE: Magicite!!
TERRA: Father...?
TERRA: I remember it all... I was raised in the Esper's world.
(During Terra's flashback.)
On-screen: The Esper World... 
(Upon talking to the esper youth at the gate before finding Madonna.)
YOUTH: Emergency! Something's coming through the gate!
(Upon talking to the esper in the house on the southwest before finding Madonna.)
ESPER: You okay Maduin?
(Upon talking to the espers in the first house on the east before finding Madonna.)
;ESPER:
* Strong winds... Be careful, Maduin.
* You're the Gate Keeper, Maduin?
(Upon talking to the elder in the second house on the east before finding Madonna.)
ELDER: This evening is an ill omen...
(Upon talking to the other esper in the second house on the east before finding Madonna.)
ESPER: You okay, Maduin?
(Upon finding Madonna.)
MADUIN: Listen well, and think clearly! What will you do?
* (Upon selecting "(Return together?)", progress to next scene.)
* (Upon selecting "(Leave her here?)", nothing happens.)
(After rescuing Madonna, or upon talking to the esper by Madonna's bed after rescuing her.)
ESPER: She's pretty weak. Better let her rest for a moment.
(Upon talking to the elder after rescuing Madonna.)
ELDER: Did I hear there was a human here?
MADUIN: Probably... ...wandered in here by mistake.
(Upon talking to the other esper in the second house on the east after finding Madonna.)
ESPER: You'd better do away with it. Humans and Espers are incompatible...
(Upon talking to the esper youth at the gate after finding Madonna.)
YOUTH: Elder's orders... No one passes through the gate.
(Upon talking to espers in the central area after finding Madonna.)
;ESPER:
* ......
* They say a human girl's here...
* Why has this happened now after all these years?
(Upon talking to the esper in the house on the southwest after finding Madonna.)
ESPER: Do you even know what you've done?
(Upon talking to the espers in the first house on the east after finding Madonna.)
;ESPER:
* The link between worlds has surely weakened over the past 1000 years.
* Everyone here's feeling uneasy.
(Upon talking to Madonna after rescuing her.)
MADUIN: Did I awaken you?
GIRL: You're...an Esper? What's that pendant for?
MADUIN: It's...yours now! It helps protect the Esper World.
GIRL: Esper World... Boy, did I take the low road or what?
MADUIN: The Esper folk are pretty upset, you being a human and all...
GIRL: You the one who...saved me?
ESPER: I am Maduin. I tired living in the human world... That world is filled with desire, greed and loathing. It's highly infectious...
MADUIN: Are humans and Espers truly...so different?
MADONNA: So...I'm an example of the evil in this world, huh?
MADUIN: No, I mean...
MADONNA: I'll return to my world tomorrow!
MADUIN: You'll need a guide.
(Upon talking to the elder outside Maduin's house after Madonna flees.)
ELDER: Everything all right? WHAT? The human's gone?
(Upon talking to espers in the central area after finding Madonna.)
;ESPER:
* A human girl made it all the way to the gate!
*If this generation of humans knew about our abilities... And decided they wanted to utilize our powers... It would be a total disaster!
(Upon talking to the esper by Madonna after she flees.)
ESPER: A human girl made it all the way to the gate!
(Upon talking to the esper youth in front of the gate after Madonna flees.)
YOUTH: What's wrong, Maduin?
(Upon talking to Madonna at the cave after she attempts to flee.)
MADUIN: If you don't want to return to your world, you may stay here.
MADONNA: But humans and Espers can never coexist...!
MADUIN: How do we know for sure unless we observe for ourselves?
MADUIN: How do we know... unless we... observe for ourselves...?
MADUIN: We've given her a name...
MADONNA: What?
MADUIN: It's TERRA. Not bad, huh?
On-screen: 2 years later...
ESPER: Humans!!!!! The nexus between our worlds has opened again!! The wind... so odd...just like 2 years ago...
ESPER: But something's different now... Troops have come seeking our magical power.
ESPER: Blast it! They've made it as far as the Elder's house!
GESTAHL: Aha! We've finally found it! Those ancient writings told us of this world, and described the awesome magical properties of these beasts!
GESTAHL: Grab them! Riches to any man who captures an Esper! GO!
(Upon talking to Madonna during the Imperial attack.)
MADONNA: TERRA's all right.
(Upon talking to the other esper in the second house on the east during the Imperial attack.)
ESPER: Soon the humans will arrive!
(Upon talking to the esper guarding the door outside the house during the Imperial attack.)
NPC: It's dangerous out there!
(Upon talking to the elder during the Imperial attack.)
ELDER: We've no choice... We must do what we've been avoiding...
MADUIN: You mean... the magic barrier?
ELDER: Here's the plan. We'll cause a tempest that'll sweep all the nasty creatures out of our realm. Then we'll seal the gate... I am the last of our kind able to cast this magical seal.
MADUIN: But in your state, you might just...
ELDER: Pass away... but at least we will finally be safe.
MADUIN: Madonna......
MADONNA: I, for one, will not miss the other side...
ELDER: Let's do it. We have no other choice.
(Upon attempting to leave the house after talking to the elder.)
ESPER: This is all because of that human girl!
MADUIN: Nonsense!
ESPER: I'm sure she helped the others find us!
MADUIN: Get a grip on yourself!
ESPER: No! She's one of them! Soon she'll be wearing our hide!
MADUIN: Urghhh!
(Upon talking to the espers in the house after Madonna runs out.)
ESPER: Madonna took TERRA to the gate!
(Upon talking to the elder at the entrance after Madonna runs out.)
ELDER: Where are you going?! D' goh!
MADUIN: Madonna's getting drawn into the next world...!
ELDER: Impossible! It's too late! I've already begun casting the barrier. There's no turning back!
MADUIN: That fool...
(Upon reaching the soldiers at the entrance.)
SOLDIER: Look what popped out!
GESTAHL: Shriek!!! Just when we were in reach of a veritable bonanza...!
(Upon talking to Madonna at the entrance.)
MADONNA: Maduin... I'm not their friend...
MADUIN: I understand that!
MADONNA: Thank you...
MADUIN: Can you make it back here?
MADONNA: Sure...
MADUIN / MADONNA: TERRA!!!
MADUIN: Madonna!!
GESTAHL: A...human girl? Wh... Who is she?
MADONNA: Please... take care...of my baby...
GESTAHL: YOUR girl!? Eh!? Hmmm...Then she's half human and half... How absolutely fascinating! Mwa, ha, ha... She will help us realize our dream faster than we ever imagined!
MADONNA: N...noooo!!!
GESTAHL: Quiet, my dear!!
GESTAHL: We will own this world! Ha, ha, ha...
(After flashback ends.)
TERRA: That was my father...?
TERRA: I'm the product of an Esper and a human... That's where I got my powers... Now I understand... I finally feel I can begin to control this power of mine...
EDGAR: So Gestahl must've known the secret of the Espers' power back then.
LOCKE: And those Espers at the facility were grabbed during that expedition! That means CELES's power came...... at the expense of an Esper...
SABIN: They can't get away with this! We have to strike back!
TERRA: What's happening in Narshe?
LOCKE: Hmm... Maybe we should head back that way.
SETZER: The airship's ready!
TERRA: Come on!

(Upon entering Narshe.)
NPC: We've been waiting for you. This way, please...
BANON: Oh, you're here! The people of Narshe have finally decided to battle the Empire. How did it go at Vector...?
ARVIS: I see... Your plan would combine Narshe's money with Figaro's machinery to storm the Empire... not enough manpower, though...
BANON: We have to open the sealed gate...
TERRA: To the Esper World...?
* (If Terra was not originally in the party whe entering Narshe.)PARTY: TERRA!?
ARVIS: We'll never beat the Empire without them.
BANON: When the gate has been opened, the Espers can attack from the east. We'll storm in at the same time, from the north.
UNKNOWN: No way around it.
BANON: We MUST get the Espers to understand. We have to establish a bond of trust between humans and Espers. Only one person can do this...
UNKNOWN: TERRA...
TERRA: Half human, half Esper... My existence is proof that such a bond CAN exist...
TERRA: I'll do it. I'm the only one who can!
====Imperial Base====
(Upon entering the base on the way to the Sealed Gate.)
* (If Terra is not in the party.)PARTY: The Espers wouldn't give us the time of day without... TERRA...

TERRA: ......
PARTY: TERRA! ...the gate...quickly!

KEFKA: U'hee, hee, heeee!!!! The Emperor was right! Let TERRA fall into your hands, and you'd open the gate for us...!
PARTY: ......!
KEFKA: How does it feel to know you've been working for us?!
KEFKA: Now I fear you've outlived your usefulness......
PARTY: You'd better think again, Kefka!
KEFKA: Oh dear...... you wanna fight me?! This is just dreadful!
On-screen: Keep Kefka busy until Terra slips through the gate!!
(After a few attacks.)
UNKNOWN: Look! The, the door's opening!
TERRA: Espers... Please heed my call...

PARTY: What happened?
PARTY: The Espers flew off together...
PARTY: Then, the Empire's citizens ran off, as though they were terrified.
PARTY: Which way did the Espers go?
PARTY: Toward the capital...
PARTY: Vector...
====Blackjack (after Cave to the Sealed Gate)====
SETZER: We're almost at Vector.
PARTY: There! What's that?
LOCKE: What's wrong, TERRA?
TERRA: I can feel it......It's coming closer and closer...
LOCKE: What do you mean you can feel it?
TERRA: It was......glowing!
LOCKE: What's that?
LOCKE: It can't be......! An Esper???
LOCKE: It's coming!!! Watch out, TERRA!!
SETZER: What was that!?
LOCKE: SETZER, get down!

SENTRY: We're hanging up our weapons and armor for good.
GESTAHL: The power of those Espers... I had no idea...They'll shred the world...! We must get them to understand that we are no longer at war.
CID: No human's going to make them sit down and listen...
GESTAHL: But for now my friends...Let us feast and rejoice!
CID: There're some people here who'd prefer to keep fighting. Please, before we dine, talk to as many soldiers as you can! Make them understand!
TROOPER: Please talk to as many soldiers as you can. You have 4 minutes until dinner.
(Upon talking to the sentries in Gestahl's throne room before banquet.)
SENTRY: Dinner preparations underway. One moment, please.
(Upon talking to troopers around the Imperial castle before banquet. Those outside the throne room have the same lines as if they were spoken to before first meeting Gestahl.)
;TROOPER:
* I've slain too many people. I'll never live a normal life.
* I heard you're the strongest of the Returners...so just how strong are you...?
** (After defeating him.)Not bad...pretty strong!
* Someone outta thrash ya!
* When the Emperor learned that Kefka used poison in battle, he imprisoned the fiend!
* Phepppp. Returner scum!
** (After defeating him.)Hm. Not bad!
* The Espers surely came to free their friends...
* The Empire's talking peace now!
* Everything'll be settled after the banquet...
* The Magitek Research Facility's been dismantled.
* I oppose peace!
** (After defeating him.)Some people fight harder after they're cast down!
* The Empire'll never die!
* You're not wanted!
* Kefka's scum... It serves him right!
* My whole family was lost in the war...
* The war ended before we could use this machine...
* Kefka's in jail!
* You deserve a thrashing!
** (After defeating him.)You're strong... Maybe you really CAN defeat the Espers...
* We'll never knuckle under...
* Espers... Who'd have dreamed they were that powerful...
* Kefka! Using poison... how low can you get?! I've always hated you!
(Upon talking to Kefka in jail.)
KEFKA: Grrr! How DARE they put me in a place like this!
KEFKA: I don't believe this!
KEFKA: What a bore.
(After the timer concludes, beginning the banquet.)
On-screen: That evening, the banquet with the Emperor took place...
TROOPER: This way, please.
CID: You can count me in as a Returner!
GESTAHL: Imagine! All of us here together, sharing a meal! First we must have a toast!
* (Upon selecting "To the Empire...".)GESTAHL: Well then... To the Empire!
* (Upon selecting "To the Returners...".)GESTAHL: Well then... To the Returners!
* (Upon selecting "To our hometowns...".)GESTAHL: Well then... To our hometowns!
GESTAHL: As you know, Kefka's in jail for war crimes. What shall we do with him?
* (Upon selecting "Leave him in jail...", "Pardon him...", or "Execute him...", continue with the same Gestahl response.)
GESTAHL: Hmm... Well, let's let him stew in his cell for a while. Then we'll decide what to do.
GESTAHL: I truly apologize about the poisoning of Doma. No one dreamed Kefka would use poison.
* (Upon selecting "What's done is done...", "That was inexcusable.", or "Apologize again!!", continue with the same Gestahl response.)
GESTAHL: I'm so terribly sorry! Kefka's being severely punished, and we're cleaning up the poison.
GESTAHL: By the way... With regard to General CELES...
* (Upon selecting "Was she an Imperial spy?", "CELES is one of us!", or "We trust CELES!" continue with the same Gestahl response.)
GESTAHL: Kefka was lying. General CELES realized the war was stupid before anyone else. That's why she joined the returners. Any other questions for me?
* (Upon selecting "Why'd you start the war?".)GESTAHL: My desire for power got the best of me. Now I've come to my senses.
* (Upon selecting "Why do you want peace now?".)GESTAHL: I feel we need each other's help at this time...
* (Upon selecting "Why'd we have to talk to your men?".)GESTAHL: Some of my men refuse to embrace peace. I felt they'd understand if they actually met you face to face.
(After Gestahl's answer to any of the player's questions.)
GESTAHL: With your permission, I'd like to talk about the Espers...
* (Upon selecting "One more question please!", reopen the options for the questions for Gestahl.)(After his answer.)
** (Upon selecting "One more question please!", reopen the options for the questions for Gestahl.)
*** (Upon asking any of the same questions twice.)GESTAHL: I assure you, I have answered your questions truthfully.
** (Upon selecting "Let's talk about Espers...", continue.)
* (Upon selecting "Okay.", continue.)
GESTAHL: My Empire's been decimated by the Espers that emerged from the sealed gate. They're acting spiteful. Unless they're stopped, they'll rip the world asunder!
* (Upon selecting "Yes, the Espers have gone too far." or "But you unleashed their power!!", continue with the same Gestahl response.)
GESTAHL: After the Espers went on their rampage, I knew I couldn't go on with my war. I asked myself why I had started it in the first place. By the way... About those questions you asked me... which did you ask first?
* (Upon selecting "Why'd you start the war?", "Why do you want peace now?", or "Why'd we have to talk to your men?", continue with the same Gestahl response.)
GESTAHL: Right. Anyway, more than anything I want peace. That's my true dream. I want you to understand that!
CID: You seem a bit tired. Care for a rest break?
* (Upon selecting "Yes, let's take a break.", begin break.)
* (Upon selecting "Let's keep talking.", skip break.)
(Upon talking to Gestahl during the break.)
GESTAHL: ......
(Upon talking to Cid during the break.)
CID: All will be put right if we can achieve peace...!
(Upon talking to the sentries at the table during the break.)
TROOPERS: We want to test your strength! Won't you fight with us for a couple of minutes?
* (Upon selecting "Sure", begin battle.)
** (Upon defeating them.)TROOPER: Just as we thought...
* (Upon selecting "Sorry", conversation ends.)
(Upon talking to one of the troopers after battling and defeating them.)
TROOPER: Just as we thought...
(Upon returning to the table during a break.)
UNKNOWN: Shall we begin again?
* (Upon selecting "Yes", resume.)
* (Upon selecting "No", nothing happens.)
(When the banquet continues, either after ending the break or if the break was skipped.)
GESTAHL: Is there anything you wish to hear me say?
* (Upon selecting "That all you really want is peace.")GESTAHL: I understand. My only dream in life is...peace! Now I must ask for a favor...
* (Upon selecting "That your war's truly over."GESTAHL: I understand. I've ordered this war to be over! Now I must ask for a favor...
* (Upon selecting "That you're sorry...")GESTAHL: I understand. I'm truly sorry for what I've done! Now I must ask for a favor...
GESTAHL: After they devastated my Empire, the Espers headed northward, toward Crescent Island. They must be found...! We must tell them we're no longer their enemy. After all that I have put them through, it is up to me to set things right. That is why... I need to borrow TERRA's power.
GESTAHL: Only TERRA can bridge the gap between Esper and human.
GESTAHL: We must make for Crescent Island aboard the freighter from Albrook. Will you accompany me?
* (Upon selecting "Yes", continue.)
* (Upon selecting "No".)GESTAHL: We cannot simply ignore the Espers!! Please...come with me!
** (Upon selecting "Yes", continue.)
** (Upon selecting "No", repeat.)
GESTAHL: I'll have my finest warrior accompany us! General Leo!
LEO: I'm General Leo. Nice to meet you.
* (If Sabin is in the party.)SABIN: Didn't I see you at Doma? ...I'm SURE I did... So that was General Leo...
* (If Cyan is in the party.)LEO: You! You're Cyan, liege to the king of Doma! Please forgive me for not being there to stop Kefka...CYAN: ...... That wasn't your fault.
LEO: I'll be waiting for you in Albrook.
GESTAHL: We must find the Espers and come to terms with them! You are our last hope!
LOCKE: If TERRA goes, I'll go.
TERRA: LOCKE... Thank you...
LOCKE: The rest of you wait here. I smell a rat...
EDGAR: Agreed... It's hard to trust the Emperor just like that...
CYAN: We'll stay here and investigate.
LOCKE: Please do. Leave no stone unturned!
EDGAR: Right. And you be careful!
(Upon leaving the throne room.)
SENTRY: A message from the Emperor... Because you were able to talk to so many soldiers, you are to be rewarded as follows.
(Depending on how many points the player scored during the banquet, a line will be added.)
* (1-49 points.)SENTRY: Imperial troops have withdrawn from South Figaro.
* (50-66 points.)SENTRY: In addition, our troops have also pulled out of Doma.
* (67-76 points.)SENTRY: We hereby give you the right to take any weapons you desire from the Imperial base to the east, near the sealed gate.
* (77-89 points.)SENTRY: And this is from the Emperor himself...On-screen: Received "Tintinabar."
* (90-93 points.)SENTRY: Your behavior at the banquet was impeccable. Please take this as well!On-screen: Received "Charm Bangle."
SENTRY: Well...
====Albrook====
(Upon talking to the troopers around the port before talking to Leo.)
;TROOPER:
* General Leo's waiting for you.
* The Magitek Armor's being refurbished.
* General Leo's holding a meeting.
* Once we find an Esper, we'll be able to restore peace!
* Stay clear of the engine room. It's dangerous.
(Upon talking to Leo.)
LEO: There you are. Another of the Empire's generals, and a person I hired in town will be traveling with us.
LEO: Let me introduce... General CELES...and SHADOW.
LEO: Is something wrong?
LOCKE: No...
LEO: Our departure isn't till tomorrow. I've arranged some lodging for you. Please, get some rest.
TERRA: CELES...
CELES: ......
LOCKE: CELES...
(Upon talking to Leo again.)
LEO: Please, get some rest.
(Upon talking to Shadow.)
SHADOW: I'm working for the Empire. But don't worry...I'm not going to garrote you!
(Upon talking to the innkeeper.)
NPC: General Leo told us about you. By all means...
LOCKE: CELES...
LOCKE: Come on...! Why won't you speak to me?
LOCKE: Even if it was only a little...I doubted you... But I'm still your friend...
LOCKE: CELES!
(Upon talking to Leo the next morning.)
LEO: Right...let's go.
SOLDIER: All systems A-O-K.
LEO: We should arrive tomorrow morning. Why not rest until then?
(Upon talking to the two troopers on the ship.)
TROOPER: Stay clear of the engine room. It's dangerous.
(Upon talking to Leo on the ship.)
LEO: You all right?
LEO: Looks like you're feeling better...
TERRA: Funny, isn't it... I was used by the Empire... even had my thoughts ripped from me... But here I am cooperating with the "enemy"...
LEO: People are people. Not all of us are like Kefka.
TERRA: What...what's with you?
LEO: I knew you were being used as a kind of biological weapon...And because I didn't do anything about it, I'm no different than Kefka...
TERRA: I'm the product of a human and an Esper... Will I ever be able to love someone?
LEO: Of course!
TERRA: But... I haven't felt that way yet...
LEO: You're just young. ...but I understand what you mean. I understand only too well...
TERRA: But... I want to know what love is...now!
TERRA: Who is it?
SHADOW: Thought I'd sleep out under the stars.
TERRA: Did you hear... ...what we were just talking about?
SHADOW: I didn't mean to overhear anything.
TERRA: Umm...
SHADOW: I can't help you. You must look within for answers.
SHADOW: TERRA.
SHADOW: In this world are many like me who've killed their emotions. Don't forget that.
LOCKE: Urgh... Uooh... Argh...
LOCKE: Ooh... Ohhhhhhh...
LOCKE: I think I'm gonna...
LOCKE: Not a word of this to anyone else, o shrouded one...
LOCKE: I think I'm gonna...
(Upon talking to the troopers on the ship the next day.)
;TROOPER:
* Once we find an Esper, we'll be able to restore peace!
* Rumor has it that the power of magic still exists on Crescent Island.
* We're almost to Crescent Island.
* General Leo's holding a meeting.
(Upon talking to Leo the next day.)
LEO: We're almost at Crescent Island. When we disembark, we'll split into two groups. CELES and I will form one group. TERRA, you go with LOCKE and SHADOW. If you spot the Espers, report at once!
(Upon talking to Leo again.)
LEO: TERRA, we'll continue yesterday's conversation later...
(Upon talking to Locke.)
LOCKE: Let's go.
LOCKE: SHADOW!
CELES: Hey...LOCKE...
CELES: Um, I...
LOCKE: Come on.
====Thamasa====
(Upon talking to Strago.)
STRAGO: Whatcha want with me?
On-screen: An elderly gentleman, pure of heart, and learned in the ways of monsters...
(Upon selecting the name "STRAGO".)
STRAGO: Espers? Espers...Hmm...Not really familiar with that word.
LOCKE: But you've heard it before?
STRAGO: Nope, uhn uhn... Can't say I have. Honestly can't say I have!
PARTY: That's odd...
RELM: Grandpa!
STRAGO: Hey...HEY!
STRAGO: What in blazes... What're you doing?
On-screen: In her pictures she captures everything: forests, water, light...the very essence of life...
(Upon selecting the name "RELM".)
RELM: Grandpa. Who are these people? Friends? Can they use magic, too?
STRAGO: Yaa! Hush!
RELM: What a cute doggy!
SHADOW: Get away. He bites.
STRAGO: Go to your room!
RELM: I will not! What a fussy old man!
STRAGO: Please...leave us!
RELM: Well...all right...
STRAGO: Hoo boy... Seems to like your dog...
RELM: What a sweet puppy!
STRAGO: This is terrible...
STRAGO: Sorry.
SHADOW: No problem. The dog usually doesn't like people, though...
STRAGO: Please excuse her. She's just young.
LOCKE: Hmmm...
STRAGO: This is just a back-water village. We can tell you nothing about your Espers...
LOCKE: I see... There's something wrong here...
TERRA: Let's have a look around.
LOCKE: Thanks for your time!
STRAGO: Sorry I couldn't have been more helpful!
SHADOW: Interceptor! Come!
RELM: Oh, all right...
(Upon talking to the innkeeper.)
NPC: 1 GP per night. Why not relax for a spell?
* (Upon selecting "Yes", rest and continue.)
* (Upon selecting "No", nothing happens.)
(After resting.)
STRAGO: This is awful! RELM...she's...
TERRA: RELM's in danger?
STRAGO: Yes! She was at a neighbor's house when a fire broke out. I won't be able to stand it if something happens to her!
STRAGO: Please! Won't you help?!
LOCKE: SHADOW!
SHADOW: Interceptor... Where are you?!
(Upon talking to the people running around during the fire.)
NPC: FIRE!!
(Upon talking to the child in front of his house during the fire.)
NPC: Waaah...my beautiful house...!
(Upon talking to Strago in front of the house during the fire.)
STRAGO: RELM's inside that house!
STRAGO: RELM!!!!!
LOCKE: What're you doing?
STRAGO: Flames be GONE!!!
MAYOR: Magic is forbidden!
TERRA: Magic...?!
STRAGO: I don't care! RELM's inside!!!
NPC: Mayor!!
MAYOR: All right. We really have no choice.
MAYOR: Stand back.
STRAGO: Flames be GONE!!!
MAYOR: Flames be GONE!!!
NPC: Flames be GONE!!!
STRAGO: It's no use. The fire's too strong!
MAYOR: I think that's because they keep so many Fire Rods in here...
STRAGO: I'm going in!
TERRA: Wait...I'm going too.
LOCKE: Count me in. You'd better stay out here, gramps.
STRAGO: Fool! I may be old, but I'm not powerless!
PARTY: Quickly!
====Burning House====
LOCKE: Try to avoid the flames.
TERRA: Easier said than done.
STRAGO: Hurry! We have to find RELM!
(Upon reaching FlameEater.)
PARTY: Is this the source of our blaze...?
(After defeating FlameEater.)
STRAGO: RELM!!! Where are you?!
STRAGO: RELM!!!!!
PARTY: Uwaaa!! Too late!
SHADOW: Let's get outta here! I'll use a Smoke Bomb!!
====Thamasa (after Burning House)====
STRAGO: Are you okay?
RELM: Yes. Thanks, Grandpa!
STRAGO: Save your thanks for these people.
RELM: Thank you...
STRAGO: I guess our town's little secret is out now...
LOCKE: Can everyone here use magic? What's going on here?
STRAGO: This is......the village of the Mage Warriors...
STRAGO: Long ago humans used Magicite to gain magical powers. They came to be known as Mage Warriors.
LOCKE: But I thought they perished centuries ago...
STRAGO: After the War of the Magi, the Espers fled to their new world behind the sealed gate. They wished to live peacefully, without fear of being used by humans. They left us here to fend for ourselves… But we were despised by normal people. Everyone felt we had begun that war...
STRAGO: They sent people to hunt us down like animals. There weren't even any trials...
TERRA: Even though the only difference was that you could use magic...?
STRAGO: A few Mage Warriors escaped and found their way here. They were our ancestors. Our powers have weakened over time, but some of it remains.
TERRA: Look, if you're up to it, we could use your help.
STRAGO: So, you're after the Espers, eh...?
STRAGO: Well, I owe you for saving RELM. I'll help you find your Espers.
RELM: Me too!
STRAGO: I don't think so.
RELM: What a fuddy duddy...
LOCKE: But...where do we start looking?
STRAGO: Hmm...If they're here, they must be hiding in the mountains to the west.
LOCKE: Why there?
STRAGO: Those mountains have powerful magical properties. They say the Espers were created there...
TERRA: Maybe they're drawn to that place?
LOCKE: I think it's worth a look.
(Upon leaving Strago's house.)
SHADOW: Don't misunderstand me. I just wanted my dog back.
LOCKE: Going somewhere?
SHADOW: I'll search for the Espers in my own way.
SHADOW: Interceptor! Come!
====Esper Caves====
(Upon reaching the statue.s)
STRAGO: I can't believe it... The Statues...!
TERRA: "The" Statues?!
LOCKE: Some faint letters are carved on the back of the stone figures...
LOCKE: Say, old man, what else can you tell us about these goddesses?
STRAGO: They quite literally created magic, as we know it.
LOCKE: So, they're the goddesses of magic, then?
STRAGO: You could say that.
TERRA: I can feel their power...
STRAGO: The Statues are the source of all magic. It's said the Espers made these images, and put them in a very special place. These represent power beyond all comprehension...
TERRA: Our Espers no doubt came to this island to bask in all this magical power!
LOCKE: Say, old timer, what happened to the stone goddesses?
STRAGO: Legend has it that they're hidden somewhere beyond the reach of humans. I'd say they're beyond the sealed gate...
TERRA: I wonder if the barrier that protects that place is generated by those stone goddesses?
LOCKE: Phew...what a story.
TERRA: If the Espers were attracted here by these statues, they must be around here somewhere!
LOCKE: I think it's worth a look.
(Upon interacting with the statues.)
;On-screen:
* The birth of magic...3 goddesses were banished here. In time they began quarreling, which led to all-out war.Those unlucky humans who got in the way were transformed into Espers, and used as living war machines...
* The goddesses finally realized that they were being laughed at by those who had banished them here.In a rare moment of mutual clarity, they agreed to seal themselves away from the world.With their last ounce of energy they gave the Espers back their own free will, and then transformed themselves......into stone.Their only request was that the Espers keep them sealed away for all eternity.
* The Espers created these statues as a symbol of their vow to let the goddesses sleep in peace.The Espers have sworn to keep the goddesses' power from being abused.
(Upon leaving.)
ULTROS: G'heh, heh...these shiny statues are all mine! These'll get Ziegfried's attention!
ULTROS: Oh! They're glowing!! They're...beautiful!
LOCKE: Hey, squidball! Don't you ever learn?
ULTROS: Uh, well they always said I was a slow learner... but I eat FAST!!
(During battle with Ultros.)
;ULTROS:
* I was just thinking about you! I've more lives than I do arms!
* Hope I'm not making a nuisance of myself! So sorry!
(After Ultros takes several thousand HP damage.)
RELM: Grandpa! I'm here......!
STRAGO: RELM! I told you to stay at home!
RELM: I couldn't miss the chance to practice my drawing!
RELM: Say, sweetie, who are you?
ULTROS: How dare you! I'm Ultros!!
LOCKE: Relm and Ultros......What ARE you doing......?
RELM: Listen, Ulty...... Why don't you pose for me?
ULTROS: I'm not one of your kiddy friends! Don't talk to me as if I were!! I don't want a portrait!
RELM: Forget it! I don't wanna draw it anymore!
RELM: It's okay......I'll just jump down from here. 
TERRA: No!! You can't do that!!!
On-screen: Whisper, whisper......
TERRA: How dare you bother that little girl! I'm not going to forgive you if you hurt her!!
ULTROS: Well, whadduya want I should do?
LOCKE: Ask her to draw your portrait. She may actually make you look pleasant!
LOCKE: Don't be so heartless!
ULTROS:........................................................................Oh, all right, Uncle Ulty REALLY wants you to do his portrait!!!
RELM: Hee, hee, hee... You're gonna love it!
(Upon using Sketch.)
ULTROS: How can this be? I...I'm nothing more than a stupid octopus!
(After the fight ends.)
STRAGO: At any rate, come here!
RELM: Hey! Did you see me? I was awesome! Wouldn't I be more helpful than Gramps?
STRAGO: G...GRAMPS!!?
TERRA: I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have you along...
STRAGO: All right all ready! If you insist...
RELM: That's better!
(Upon reaching the espers.)
RELM: Are these...Espers?!
STRAGO: What about you?
TERRA: I didn't think they'd look so... 
LOCKE: Gramps, take RELM and clear outta here!
YURA: Halt!
RELM: What is it?
STRAGO: I sense some immense magical power in TERRA... It...frightens me...
LOCKE: I wonder if she's gonna go ballistic again?!
YURA: You're somehow different... I sense a familiar power radiating from you...
TERRA: Yes.
STRAGO: You're the Espers that fled through the sealed gate?
YURA: As a rule, we are not allowed to visit to your world. We few had gathered near the gate, and were wondering how we could save the Espers that had been kidnapped. It was just a coincidence that TERRA appeared when she did...
TERRA: I felt...your presence...through the gate.
YURA: We bolted the moment TERRA opened the gate. But once in your world, we lost control of our powers.
YURA: We completely leveled a city...and took some innocent lives...
TERRA: That's what happened to me! I lost all control of my power...
STRAGO: There must be something in your world that allows you to focus your power differently. You must use caution while in our world...
YURA: We are deeply sorry to have caused you humans such suffering and pain.
LOCKE: The past is history. The Empire seems to want to talk peace with you. Why not come with us?
YURA: They would forgive us so easily?
LOCKE: Let's go to Thamasa and talk with General Leo.
TERRA: Right!
====Thamasa (after Esper Caves)====
LOCKE: General Leo.
LEO: LOCKE...you're back! And you've made the Espers understand our desire for peace!
LEO: I am General Leo. May I have your name, please?
YURA: I am called Yura.
YURA: We have done something inexcusable to your people. This probably isn't the time or place to ask for your forgiveness, but...
LEO: Speak no further. It is we who owe you an apology. We hungered for your power...How close we came to reenacting the War of the Magi!!!
YURA: We must put this all behind us.
LOCKE: I believe our job is finally over! I, for one, could use some peace and quiet...
CELES: Let's return to Vector.
LOCKE: CELES...
CELES: Please, not another word.
RELM: I'm too hot, Grandpa.
STRAGO: Kids!!
KEFKA: Hee, hee...! How 'bout a little Magitek mayhem!
LEO: Kefka! What ARE you doing?!
KEFKA: G'ha, ha, ha! Emperor's orders! I'm to bring the Magicite remains of these Espers to his excellency! Behold! A Magicite mother lode!!
KEFKA: Idiots!
KEFKA: I don't care for the appearance of this pitiful little hamlet...So burn it!!
LEO: Kefka! No!
KEFKA: Shut up!
(Upon talking to a Magitek Trooper.)
M.TEK TROOPER: General Leo, prepare yourself!
(After fleeing from battle with them.)
LEO: No. I won't let this happen!
(Upon talking to Kefka.)
LEO: Kefka! Your behavior is dishonorable! I can't allow this!
(After defeating Kefka.)
KEFKA: Ah......Leo......always the consummate soldier......
LEO: Where are you, Kefka......Show yourself!!
KEFKA: EMPEROR GESTAHL......I need you here......
EMPEROR GESTAHL: Leo......
LEO: My liege!
GESTAL: I'm sorry I deceived even you, Leo. My purpose has been to gather Magicite, and grow powerful......Please understand me......
LEO: But, Emperor...!
GESTAHL: Don't say anything. I understand how you feel.
KEFKA: Uwee, hee, hee......That's right! What we have to do now is to collect Magicite!
LEO: But my liege......what have I been fighting for...?
GESTAHL: Leo, I'd like you to take a nice, long snooze...! Very long! Uwa, ha!
LEO: !!!
KEFKA: So......you think you hit me?! That was simply my shadow! And how did you like my Gestahl? I should've been on the stage! Well, General......
KEFKA: You're such a goody two-shoes!
LEO: Shut up, Kefka! I oughtta......
KEFKA: Oh! A threat...? You're such a violent little brute! I'll tell your "liege" I had to exterminate a traitor...!
KEFKA: Hate......hate......HATE!!
KEFKA: Whoa! Yes, I feel some incredible magic power here, today! Wave after wave of pure, magical energy...
ESPERS: Wait! We're here to help! 
ESPERS: Hurry! 
ESPERS: Get going! 
KEFKA: I'd say you're all charged up, boys and girls...or whatever...Say, remind me to show you my Magicite collection someday! You might see a few familiar faces!!!
KEFKA: Now for a little Magicite hocus-pocus...!
KEFKA: First, let's neutralize your abilities.
KEFKA: Now, little Espers... Let's see whatcha got!
KEFKA: Eh?! You wanna take me on? Fine. Here I am...
KEFKA: Imagine! Thinking you could defeat ME!! This is rich! Mwa, ha, ha!
KEFKA: Now, my little Magicite pretties......come, and help me build the magical empire of "Kefka"!
KEFKA: G'haw, haw...... Ooh! They're warm to the touch! What treasures!
KEFKA: This is ridiculous! I had no idea you were such wimps! Time to put a stop to all of this.
KEFKA: Phew... I think I have plenty of Magicite for the time being... that is, until I make my way through your precious sealed gate!!
KEFKA: I don't believe this!
TERRA: General Leo...
TERRA: People only seem to want power. Do they really want to be like me?
TERRA: I...I wanted to learn so much more from you...
PARTY: Interceptor!? That's a nasty wound!
LOCKE: We not only lost Leo, but Shadow, too... Curse the Empire!
LOCKE: This'll have to do...
CELES: He was so gentle...
RELM: I’ll go with you.
LOCKE: Now I'm worried about EDGAR and the others...
TERRA: I wish I could say they were safe...
SETZER: We've been had!! The Emperor is a liar!
CYAN: Thanks to EDGAR, we escaped before anything bad happened...
LOCKE: Way to go, EDGAR!
EDGAR: I got to know the gal who brought us tea. After a while, she just blurted out the whole crooked plan.
SABIN: So...you finally hit pay dirt, eh?
EDGAR: Watch your mouth! There're ladies present! I was a perfect gentleman.
LOCKE: General Leo's gone...Kefka did him in... 
CYAN: Sir Leo?! Gone?! What a waste...He was their finest soldier...
EDGAR: We need to rethink our plans. Let's return to the airship.
STRAGO: May I accompany you?
EDGAR: Who're you?
LOCKE: He's one of this town's citizens.
TERRA: He's descended from the Mage Warriors of yore... I think he can be a big help.
STRAGO: We must expect the Empire to flex its new-found muscle soon.
RELM: I'm coming along, too.
SABIN: Yeah, right kid!
RELM: What? Who is this puffed up aerobics instructor, anyway?
SABIN: Kid's got quite a lip!
RELM: Aaack! I'm gonna paint your portrait!
PARTY: Uwaaa! S...stop!
STRAGO: All right all ready! If you insist...
RELM: That's better!
SABIN: Let's go!
RELM: What's wrong, lover boy?
EDGAR: How old are you?
RELM: 10...why?
RELM: I'm coming along, too.
EDGAR: You've grown up entirely too fast! Lighten up, okay?!
====Blackjack (after Thamasa)====
SETZER: The Empire's after the sealed gate! They're looking for some statues or something.
STRAGO: No!!!
GESTAHL: Oh, those silly Espers! To think they opened the gate themselves! The Statues should be just ahead. If we can just get our hands on them, we'll have everything we ever dreamed of!
GESTAHL: Come quickly!
CELES: What's wrong, TERRA?
TERRA: The island... The world is groaning in pain...
GESTAHL: Fuwa, ha, ha! Now THIS is power! This, and my Magicite... now nothing can stop me!
STRAGO: The beginning of all magic...
TERRA: Those?
STRAGO: It is said that they somehow neutralized each other's power, then sealed themselves away... the 3 statues should ever be moved out of alignment, the resulting inbalance of power would... ...rearrange the face of our planet...
TERRA: What?!
(Upon interacting with the wheel.)
* (Upon selecting "(Find the Floating Continent)", continue.)
* (Upon selecting "(Lift-off)", control the airship as normal.)
* (Upon selecting "(Not just yet)", nothing happens.)
(After selecting to continue to the Floating Continent.)
SETZER: Quick! Let's jump onto that thing!
On-screen: Only 3 allowed in your party. The others must stay on board.
(After selecting a party, when the first group of enemies attack.)
PARTY: Uh, oh!!! The Imperial Airforce (IAF)! We're surrounded! Let's give 'em a bloody lip!
(Before Ultros approaches.)
PARTY: Something...curious...approaches!!
(When Ultros attacks.)
ULTROS: No, really, this us our LAST battle! Trust me!
(After deallng heavy damage to Ultros.)
ULTROS: I lose AGAIN! Well, today I've brought a pal! Mr. Chupon! Come on down!
CHUPON: Fungahhh!
(During battle with Ultros and Chupon.)
;ULTROS:
* Mr. Chupon's taciturn, but terribly powerful!
* Better not irritate him! He gets hungry when he's irritated...
* I was drowsing the other day when Mr. Chupon gnawed on my head! He needed something to polish his teeth on!
(During battle with Air Force.)
On-screen: Air Force launched a Speck. A Speck absorbs magic!
====Floating Continent====
PARTY: Kefka, Gestahl...and the Statues are just ahead.
(Upon talking to Shadow.)
SHADOW: Down with the Empire! Once I outlived my usefulness, they tried to off me!
PARTY: "We thought you were a goner!"
SHADOW: Is Interceptor all right?
PARTY: "He's fine. Come on, let's go!"
SHADOW: Forget about me.
PARTY: "We can't just leave you!"
(Upon talking to Shadow on a return visit to the Floating Continent.)
SHADOW: We meet again.
(Upon reaching the airship.)
On-screen: The airship's below! Do you wish to return?
* (Upon selecting "(No)", nothing happens.)
* (Upon selecting "(Yes)", leave the dungeon.)
(Upon encountering AtmaWeapon.)
ATMA WEAPON: My name is Atma......I am pure energy...and as ancient as the cosmos. Feeble creatures, GO!
(Sometimes during the AtmaWeapon battle.)
On-screen: Vast energy focused
(After defeating AtmaWeapon.)
SHADOW: I sold my skills to the Empire... I have no right to fight together with you.
(Upon reaching Gestahl.)
GESTAHL: Well, well...
PARTY: CELES!! Welcome back!
CELES: I came to stop you!
GESTAHL: Fwa, ha, ha... Then you're just in time to perish. Behold! The Statues!!
GESTAHL: Ooh! I've got goose bumps! What power...
CELES: Emperor Gestahl! Please, stop this madness!
GESTAHL: CELES... Come to me, my pretty! You and Kefka were given life to serve me!! It is your birthright to rule the world with me!!
KEFKA: Kill the others and we'll overlook your treachery!
KEFKA: Take this sword! Take care of them. Immediately!!
GESTAHL: CELES...together we can rule an entire world! Think of it...!
CELES: Power only breeds war... I wish I'd never been...born.
KEFKA: Ouch!!
KEFKA: B...blood!?
KEFKA: You...vicious brat! Grrr... Aargh... I hate hate hate hate hate hate...hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate hate HATE YOU! Grrr...
KEFKA: Goddesses...you were born only to fight. I implore you...show me your power!!
KEFKA: I command you! Give me your power! Arrrgh! Curses!
KEFKA: Listen to me, or you'll regret it! Give me...POWER!
GESTAHL: Kefka, stop it! Revive those statues, and you'll destroy the very world we're trying to possess!
KEFKA: Shuddap!
GESTAHL: Kefka! Are you nuts?!
KEFKA: Nuts...?! Emperor! Don't disturb me! I'm showing them the meaning of power!
GESTAHL: I don't think so, friend. Your days are now over.
GESTAHL: Now relax......I'm simply going to put you to sleep with the very power you unleashed......
GESTAHL: What's so funny?!
GESTAHL: Very well. It is only fitting that you go to sleep laughing!
GESTAHL: Fire 3!!! 
GESTAHL: Flare!!! 
GESTAHL: N......noooo!! Why isn't my magic working?!
GESTAHL: Merton!!! 
GESTAHL: K......Kefka!!!!! H......how...?!
GESTAHL: How are you doing this?!
KEFKA: How? Simple! I'm standing within the field of the Statues! Their strong field absorbs all magic sent their way! Or didn't you notice?!
GESTAHL: ............!!!
KEFKA: And now, Statues! You've shown me a sign! It is time you show this old man your true power!
GESTAHL: No! Kefka!! Don't do something stupid......
KEFKA: I command you, Statues!!! 
KEFKA: I......incredible!
KEFKA: You're way off!!!! Where're you aiming?!
KEFKA: Whoa! More to the right!
KEFKA: Run! Run! Or you'll be well done!
KEFKA: YES!!! 
KEFKA: Poor old......Oh well, what a worthless excuse of an Emperor!!
GESTAHL: There'll be no one to worship us...
CELES: Snap out of it, Kefka!
CELES: Oh, that's really smart, Kefka! Disturb their delicate balance, and they'll go haywire...!
KEFKA: Who're you?!
KEFKA: Noooo!
SHADOW: Go! There are people counting on you!
SHADOW: Don't worry about me! Run!! I can't stop this chain reaction! I'll see you again. Count on it!
KEFKA: You can't escape me!!
PARTY: Shadow......Get outta here on the double!
(Upon battling Nelapa.)
NELAPA: Mwa ha ha......You can't run!
(Upon reaching the airship.)
On-screen: The airship's below.

* (Upon selecting "(Wait!!)", nothing happens.)
(Upon reaching the airship again after declining the first time.)
* (Upon selecting "(Jump!!)", continue.)
* (Upon selecting "(Gotta wait for Shadow...)", nothing happens.)
(While near the airship when the timer ends.)
PARTY: "Shadow!!"
SHADOW: I'll be blown to bits before I can even collect my pay...
(After jumping onto the airship.)
UNKNOWN: Can't you diffuse the statues?!
SETZER: Hang on!
On-screen: On that day, the world was changed forever...
===World of Ruin===
====Solitary Island / Tzen====
CID: Celes...at last...!
CID: You're finally awake! 
CELES: I...feel like I've been sleeping for ever...
CID: For one year, actually... I thought you were out for good.
CELES: A whole year...You've watched over me the whole time?
CID: Yes, and I'm about out of energy.
CID: We're on a tiny, deserted island. After the world crumbled, I awoke to find us here together with......a few strangers. 
CELES: The world...! So, it wasn't just a dream.
CELES: Where are my friends? Where's Locke...?
CID: I don't know. I only know we're here... Maybe we're the only people left alive...Since that day, the world's continued its slide into ruin. Animals and plants are dying...The few others who washed up here with us passed away of boredom and despair.
CELES: My friends...they're probably all gone...
CID: Celes...you're the closest thing to family that I have...we could just live out our lives here peacefully...
CELES: I suppose so, Cid...Or should I say, Granddad?! May I call you that?
CID: Gramps, eh? I'm overwhelmed! All of a sudden I have a granddaughter! Cough... Wheeze...
CELES: My long-lost Granddad...
CID: Ha, ha...hack...cough!
CELES: Hey, are you hungry?
CID: I...haven't eaten in 3 or so days, ever since I became ill.
CELES: What would you like?
CID: Well, unless I ask for fish, I won't get anything! That's all there is here!
CELES: I'll go catch some.
SABIN: If I move...The whole house'll collapse. First... save the child that's in there...I can't hold this up forever, so...Get out on the hum...urgh...
NPC: "I'm scared...!"
PARTY: "Don't worry, you're safe now."
SABIN: But of course! You think a minor thing like the end of the world was gonna do me in?
SABIN: I know, I know...We smash Kefka, and deliver peace unto the world...
====Nikeah / South Figaro====
NPC: From out of nowhere a bunch of huge sandworms burrowed into the prison! We followed their tunnels back to the surface and escaped.
NPC: Our last boss perished that day. We met up with Gerad in this town.
NPC: The boss wants to sneak into Figaro Castle. He wants to get our booty back from the storage room there.
NPC: We'll enter da castle through a secret cave dat only we knows about!
NPC: All right, let's go!
GERAD: What's your problem?
CELES: Y... you're Edgar, aren't you?!
CELES: Edgar?
GERAD: Enough of this nonsense! I have things to do.
GERAD: I'll be busy getting ready for our departure to Figaro.
CELES: Don't play possum with me! Edgar? Or have you somehow lost your memory?
GERAD: Listen, my lady, I've been "Gerad" all my life!
CELES: Only Edgar would say, "my lady."
GERAD: What's all the bloomin' fuss about? The words, "my lady" are used the world over!
GERAD: Oh, yeah, you know how to get into Figaro Castle, don't you?!
HENCHMAN: G'ho ho, do we ever!
GERAD: Yeah, You lead the way since it's buried.
GERAD: Let's go help 'em... Hang on a sec... ......? Are you people STILL here?
CELES: Be polite now... Edgar!
NPC: Boss, everything's ready. Let's go!
GERAD: Case of mistaken identity, my dear. Give it up!
SIGFRIED: Pretty dangerous from here on. I'll go in first and clear out all the monsters. Wait here.
GERAD: Now, where were we...?
NPC: Here, boy... Here's some nice food for you!
NPC: Presto!
GERAD: Good Job! I used to have a turtle...!
====Figaro Castle====
GERAD: You all right? You were almost a goner.
I...it was awful...
GERAD: Here's the problem... What a mess...
NPC: Boss! What're we gonna do? Our treasure's stored in the room back there!
GERAD: You guys get in there while I keep this thing busy!
NPC: "But boss! That's dangerous!"
GERAD: Get going!
CELES: Edgar!
EDGAR: What're ya waiting for, Celes? Give me a hand!!
CELES: Edgar! It IS you!
CELES: Why the stupid farce?
EDGAR: Well, I heard that Figaro had had an accident. I wanted to help, but didn't know where to look. Then I heard that those idiots had escaped from the prison.
CELES: You needed to use them...
EDGAR: Bingo. I had to wait until they led me to their secret cave.
CELES: Amazing, considering that you threw most of 'em in jail to begin with!
EDGAR: Uh, oh...! Let's hide!
NPC: Boss! ......? Boss?
NPC: Must have been eaten by that thing...
NPC: It wasn't even much of a monster... Well, let's go...
PARTY: "You don't want that treasure back...?"
EDGAR: It's completely worthless. Besides, Kefka's the one we need to worry about. Those guys haven't committed any serious crimes...
CELES: Come on, let's go...
NPC: Nonsense! It's been fixed! Next stop, the surface!
====Kohlingen / Darill's Tomb====
CELES: Setzer!
SETZER: You're alive!?
CELES: Come along with us! We're after Kefka!
SETZER: Phew... I don't know if I have it in me anymore...
CELES: What are you saying?!
SETZER: I'm just a gambler...I just want to be left alone...This world is too chaotic for me. What's worse, I've lost my wings...
CELES: But before the world collapsed, you fought with all your heart! You were absolutely fearless...
SETZER: That was then... We can never have that world back!
CELES: You want to live in this world as it is? No? Then do something about it!
SETZER: Mwa ha!All right...you win! I'm starting to feel lucky!!
SETZER: Thanks... I needed that. Now, let's go visit Daryl's Tomb.
SETZER: ......We're gonna get us another one... Airship, that is...!
CELES: This person...She was your friend?
SETZER: Yeah. She was a piece of work. Nothing scared her...
SETZER: Could be anything lurking down here, so keep your eyes peeled!
DARYL SLEEPS HERE
SETZER: This brings back a lot of memories.
DARYL: This experimental airship is probably a bit unstable...
SETZER: You can't be serious! What are you trying to prove?!
SETZER: Watch your step.
DARYL: If something should happen to me, the Falcon's yours!
SETZER: Nonsense! I'll win the Falcon from you when I whip you in a race! You'd better clear outta my way!
DARYL: Big talk, buster!
SETZER: There's nothing like flying!
DARYL: Come on! Stop lagging back there!
DARYL: Or do you like chewing on my wake!
SETZER: Listen to you!
DARYL: This time's for real. I'm going to break every record! I'll be known as the woman who flew closest to the stars!
SETZER: Be back before sunset! I'll be waiting for you on our hill.
The wreck of the Falcon was found a full year later, in a distant land...
SETZER: I restored the craft, and then put it to rest down here.
EDGAR: This is THE Falcon?
SETZER: I put it in storage. I couldn't bear to look at it. But now it just may save us... The Falcon.
EDGAR: I finally think we're gonna pull this off!
CELES: We can attack Kefka's tower from the air!
EDGAR: The Falcon's going to give us one last chance at that guy...
SETZER: But first we need to find our friends!
EDGAR: Right. First things first. For once I feel hopeful!
CELES: Hey! A bird!
CELES: Setzer! Follow that bird!
SETZER: But why?
CELES: I...don't know...! Something inside just tells me it's important...
====Maranda / Zozo====
LOLA: Look! My boyfriend in Mobliz sent me all these flowers! They're all hand-made of silk. And these are letters he has written to me...
PARTY: ??? But wasn't Mobliz demolished by Kefka? Somebody else must have written these...
Read the letter?
> Yes
> No
My beloved Lola, We're still busy trying to rebuild this town... If all goes well I'll be able to come home to you soon...
...this handwriting... It looks a lot like Cyan's... But where is he mailing them from?
LOLA: Could you please attach this reply to a carrier pigeon?
Do this favor for Lola?
> Yes
> No
LOLA: Thank you.
NPC: Climb the stairs of the building with the CAFE sign on it, and you can find a path leading to Mt. Zozo.
NPC: With this Rust-Rid you can open that door. Yours for 1000 GP!
> Yes
> No
NPC: Purchased Rust-Rid!
The world before the fall... Delightful is the light of dawn... Noble is the heart of man...
PARTY: Cyan!!
CYAN: Hey!! You're alive!?
PARTY: Cyan...
CYAN: I shall go with you! I shan't leave the world as it is! But how did you find me? W...wait! Tell me you didn't read my letters...!!
CYAN: These... they're... um... Merely a diversion of mine...
PARTY: Cyan. These flowers are gorgeous!
CYAN: Mm...m...!? This is an outrage...!
CYAN: Seriously?
CYAN: I learned of that poor girl when I passed through Maranda. When I heard that she sent a letter each day, but never received any replies... Something inside me snapped...
CYAN: As I wrote to that girl, I realized I was very much like her. I was looking behind...full of despair. My eyes were closed... And then something changed...
CYAN: I bumped into Sir Gau in Maranda. He said he had to become stronger if he was to face Kefka. He probably returned to the Veldt.
====The Veldt====
PARTY: You're...coming with us?
PARTY: Look at those wounds...
Enemy's coming from behind! Another monster appeared!
PARTY: We can't do anything for her here. Let's take her back to Thamasa using the airship.
PARTY: You were having a nightmare...
PARTY: Let's rest here for a moment.
====Jidoor / Fanatics Tower / Colosseum====
OWZER: P...please... Help that painting!!
PARTY: "The painting!?"
OWZER: It's...there's a monster hiding in my prized painting of a goddess...
PARTY: "A monster?!"
OWZER: Yes... And now it's nearly impossible to get it to show itself...
RELM: Ahhhhh!!
OWZER: Relm! We can't attack this masterpiece! It would be inexcusable!
CHADARNOOK: G'fu, fu, fu... Who're these numbskulls? No one...NO ONE...is going to remove me from this fine new painting!!
DEMON: The girl in the picture is mine! You can't have her!
RELM: Hey! Relax! The monster croaked!
OWZER: Thanks for saving the day! This picture's more precious to me than my own life!
RELM: Huh?! What are you talking about?
PARTY: "Now...what was a monster doing in that picture?!"
OWZER: It all started when I bought a stone at the Auction House. I took one look at it and suddenly felt I needed a portrait of Starlet. I asked several artists, but none could muster enough skill. It was then that I heard about Relm's amazing ability. I brought her here, and put her to work. But while she was painting, that thing came along... It must have been enticed here by that stone.
PARTY: Where is the stone...?
OWZER: The stone? Over on that bookshelf.
PARTY: "This is Magicite..."
OWZER: Phew. I don't need any more bad luck. Just take it and go!
Received the Magicite "Starlet."
RELM: I have to go! But fear not, I'll be back to finish this painting!
OWZER: I'll be waiting for you!
RELM: You!! You old fool!!! You're still standing?!
STRAGO: Relm! Is that you, my dear? You're alive!!
RELM: Idiot! Of course I'm all right!
STRAGO: Oh...I'm so happy...
RELM: Did you think I was gonna check out before you, old man?! <D>Ah, ha, ha...
STRAGO: You're as foul-mouthed as ever, bless your heart!
RELM: Come along now...We're all glad to see you!
STRAGO: Whoa! Well I'll be... All right, make room for me!
NPC: Care to fight in the colosseum?
>(With pleasure.)
>(No thanks.)
>(Explanation, please!)
PARTY: "What're you doing here?"
 SHADOW: The only thing I know how to do is fight...
PARTY: "Why not come with us?" 
SHADOW: Well...
SHADOW: First I need to see how far I can get here...
====Mobliz====
NPC: Uwaaa! Someone's coming!!
NPC: You're gonna have to fight your way in here, chumps!!
TERRA: Wait!
PARTY: Terra!!
NPC: Mama! Are these your friends?!
TERRA: Oh! I'm so glad to see that you're safe! I've missed you!
PARTY: "Terra...come one, let's go! Unless we stop Kefka, all's lost..."
TERRA: I...
TERRA: That is I... um...I can't fight any longer...
TERRA: The very day the world fell, Kefka turned some kind of beam on this town. Almost all of the adults perished trying to save their children...
NPC: It's heading this way! Protect the kids!!!
NPC: Papa!! Mama!!!
TERRA: There were only children here... The moment I arrived, I felt needed...
DUANE: You can't take Terra away!
KATARIN: Duane... Please excuse him. It's just that if Terra goes, she takes with her the very spirit of our survival...
TERRA: I don't know why these kids need me...But they've made me feel things I've never felt before. The moment I sensed this, I lost my will to fight.
TERRA: I can honestly say I don't know what's going on inside of me...And the more I try to understand it, the less inclined I am to fight.
NPC: Help!!! Run!!! Phunbaba's coming!!
TERRA: Phunbaba's an ancient demon who was released when the world was undone.
NPC: Terra!! Wake up! Uh, oh...here it comes!!
TERRA: I've really lost it... My fighting edge...
NPC: Mama! Are you okay?!
TERRA: I'm staying here. As you can see, I can't be of any help to you. And besides, the children really need me.
PARTY: "But Terra...!"
TERRA: Maybe after a little more time passes...I need to understand what's happening to me...
NPC: Thanks for scaring Phunbaba away! In his haste, he dropped this. Here!
Received the Magicite "Fenrir."
TERRA: Hey you guys!
TERRA: Katarin's having a baby.
KATARIN: I'm so happy to have had a child...But Duane seems miserable...
DUANE: Katarin... ... I'm sorry. I didn't know how to handle this. I've been an awful husband... But I'm learning. Please, come back with me.
NPC: Waaaaa! Phunbaba's back again!
TERRA: Monster again...I'm afraid...I'm always afraid...
NPC: Mama...It is you, isn't it! I can tell...
NPC: Huh? Mama?
NPC: Terra?
NPC: Mama!!
NPC: Terra!!!
TERRA: I...I can fight!
TERRA: Finally...I understand that feeling...Even though I kept it buried for so long. I'm sure it's called... ...... ...... "Love!" I now realize that we must fight for the future of our children.
TERRA: Duane... Katarin needs your help... so does your new baby. Listen children, your "Mama" has to go away for a while. I'll return when I feel your future's guaranteed!
NPC: "Mama... I'm not gonna cry!"
NPC: "Me either!"
TERRA: I'll be back. I promise! Till then...you behave!
TERRA: Thank you... You helped me to understand a part of myself. Now I must go to war. We must all believe we have a future. We must fight for those who aren't even born yet!
====Phoenix Cave / Kohlingen====
Split up into 2 parties. Use the Y Button to switch between groups.
PARTY: Locke!!
LOCKE: You're all safe! Behold...A legendary relic that can restore life...
PARTY: That looks like... Magicite...
LOCKE: Correct! Legend has it that ages ago the Phoenix was turned to stone...And many legends are based on facts...This has some major cracks in it though...I fear it may have lost its power over time...
CELES: Locke...That's for Rachel, isn't it...?
LOCKE: I wasn't able to save Rachel...I've lost all sense of purpose...My life will have no meaning until I can right this terrible wrong...
PARTY: Will you come with us? Only as far as Kohlingen...
The village of Kohlingen... 
PATRIARCH: If only the Magicite didn't bear those deep cracks...I think you've been wasting your time, young man!
LOCKE: Rachel!!!
PATRIARCH: Uwaaaaaa! The Magicite's gonna shatter!
RACHEL: Locke...
RACHEL: Locke...I've dreamed of seeing you.I wanted to hear your voice.
LOCKE: Rachel...
RACHEL: The Phoenix has given me so little time...I have to leave again soon...But I have something I must tell you...
LOCKE: ......
RACHEL: Locke... ... With you I was so happy...In the instant that the accident occurred, I thought only of you...And about the joy you brought me. Thank you, Locke...I'll never forget you...
LOCKE: RACHEL!!!!
RACHEL: I have to go now... ...I'll always love you...You must now cast off the anguish you've been harboring inside for so long... Today I set your heart free. You must learn to love yourself again, and regain your self respect....... Phoenix! Be reborn again!! And give your power...to Locke!!
LOCKE: Rachel!!!!
CELES: Locke...
LOCKE: Thanks, I'm okay...I feel lighter than air...From here on...I'll be all right. Let's go! We have work to do!!
CELES: What's up?
LOCKE: The treasures of the Phoenix Cave!
LOCKE: Right, let's move out! We have an appointment with Kefka!
====Narshe====
PICKPOCKET: Eh!? What're you doing here? Doesn't matter, really... nothing left anyway...There's only one Moogle still around, and only a treasure hunter could pick that lock...
MOG: Kupoppo! You're alive! I thought you were all feeding the worms, kupo! Kupohoho! Let's go!
MOG: Say, we could use some sasquatch muscle!! Besides, he'd be helpless here without me! He's somewhere in the mines. Once we find him, I'll order him to join us!
====Kefka's Tower / Ending====
PARTY: Right. We're going in!
EDGAR: It's time to break into Kefka's domain!
SETZER: What's wrong? Celes......
CELES: The Statues give the Espers the magical energy they need to live. If we destroy the Statues...
EDGAR: What'll happen?
CELES: I'm really not sure, but...
STRAGO: The Espers...and magic, too, will most definitely disappear from this world.
EDGAR: And then...
CELES: What will happen to ... Terra...?
The Statues are up ahead...
Divide into 3 groups. Use the Y Button to switch between them.
PARTY: Defeat the Statues, and magical power will not disappear... Kefka drained the Statues' power, the source of magic...?
KEFKA: Welcome, friends!
KEFKA: I knew you'd make it here, so I've prepared some suitable entertainment for you!
PARTY: How long are you going to let the destruction continue?
KEFKA: I've tapped into the ultimate power. Observe...!
KEFKA: Such magnificent power! You are like insects to me!
KEFKA: I will exterminate everyone, and everything!
PARTY MEMBER: People will keep rebuilding the things you take from them!
KEFKA: Then I'll destroy those too. Why do people rebuild things they know are going to be destroyed? Why do people cling to life when they know they can't live forever? Think how meaningless each of your lives is!
PARTY MEMBER: It's not the net result of one's life that's important! It's the day-to-day concerns, the personal victories, and the celebration of life...and love!
PARTY MEMBER: It's enough if people are able to experience the joy that each day can bring!
KEFKA: And have you found your #joy#, in this nearly dead world of ours?
PARTY MEMBER: Yes!
TERRA: I know what love is...!
LOCKE: And I have learned to celebrate life...and the living.
CYAN: My family lives on inside of me.
SHADOW: I know what friendship is... and family...
EDGAR: It is my dream to build a kingdom in which I can guarantee freedom, and dignity.
SABIN: I have come to experience anew the love of my brother!
CELES: I've met someone who can accept me for what I am.
SETZER: My friend's airship... and her love!
STRAGO: I have a special little Granddaughter!
RELM: And I have a brave Grandpa who'll stand by me through it all.
MOG: I have my friends here!
GAU: You my friends! Me uwaooo all of you!
KEFKA: This is sickening... You sound like chapters from a self-help booklet! Prepare yourselves!
KEFKA: Now, for my next trick, I will make you all...disappear!
PARTY: Kefka, you don't know what you're doing! Stop!
KEFKA: I command the greatest power in the universe! You are all helpless before me!
KEFKA: I will destroy everything... I will create a monument to non-existence!
PARTY MEMBER: Life will go on! There will always be people, and dreams!
KEFKA: No! I will hunt them down. I will destroy it all! Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!!
PARTY MEMBER: We will not allow you to harm another living thing.
KEFKA: Hee, hee, hee!! But what fun is destruction if no #precious# lives are lost!
PARTY: It's over, Kefka!
KEFKA: Life... Dreams... Hope... Where'd they come from? And where are they headed...? These things... I am going to destroy!! 
PARTY: It's breaking up!
CELES: Come on, everybody! We have to work together!
CELES: Terra! What's wrong?
PARTY: The Magicite... Magic is disappearing from this world...

Dear Lola, I am writing to beg for your forgiveness. I am guilty of perpetuating a terrible lie...I have only now realized the error of my ways. I hope I can correct a great wrong. Your boyfriend, who you thought was in Mobliz, passed away some time ago. I have been writing in his stead...We humans tend to allow the past to destroy our lives.

Something's happening to me. It started when I had that picture painted...And I've started hearing odd noises coming from downstairs.

STRAGO: You took on Hidon...?
GUNGHO: Oooh...cough, cough...
GUNGHO: Strago... Please...you must avenge me...
RELM: Gramps! Why are you hesitating!
STRAGO: Well... I spent my youth chasing that creature. To do it again at this age is more than I bargained for.
STRAGO: Gungho... rest easy, I'll do it for you!
RELM: Just a minute! You don't think you're going alone, do you?
STRAGO: I spent too many years of my life hunting that thing. It is my obsession, not yours.
RELM: But Grandpa! This "obsession" of yours could easily slay you! You're my Grandfather. I can't just sit idly by and watch you go.
STRAGO: Sorry, Relm. I'm so grateful that you care! But as its name implies, the Hidon is extremely difficult to find. Unless I go alone, it will not show itself.

STRAGO: Gungho...!
GUNGHO: What's all the hullabaloo?!
STRAGO: Listen to me! I DEFEATED Hidon!
GUNGHO: You WHAT?! You b...beat Hidon?! You're lying! LYING!
RELM: No, he's not! He really defeated Hidon.
STRAGO: Ho, ho, ho! If I didn't know better, I'd say that Hidon wasn't my only enemy!
GUNGHO: I don't believe this. This has to be a joke!
STRAGO: Ho, ho, ho!! ...by the way, how are your wounds healing, Gungho?
GUNGHO: Eh? Oh, they're fine...
That evening......
STRAGO: There I was, in a cave that seemed endless. Then, before I knew it, Hidon appeared!
STRAGO: I stared Hidon straight in the eye, lifted my staff, and let him have it! G'Pow!! Thwack!! Crash!!
STRAGO: I wanted to show my enemy the true meaning of the word, "hero"!
STRAGO: And then......
RELM: What happened to Grandpa?
GUNGHO: Huh? Finally! He nodded off.
GUNGHO: However... Let's let him be! He's nice and...quiet... Now, about my "wounds"...
RELM: Wait! First let me thank you. You gave Grandpa a reason to go and defeat something that had tormented him for decades! Even if YOU were faking, that creature meant business!
GUNGHO: What a granddaughter he's raised! Amazing!
RELM: And what a terrible actor you are!
RELM: Only Strago could have been taken in by that performance!
