Reviving Zenithia

You've probably noticed that small shrine in the forest to the west of Gandino. Wonder what it's for?

Time to talk to some people. First talk to Hawk. Hawk will tell you that each piece of the legendary equipment acts as a key. How would we see the symbol on each piece of equipment? With Identify of course!
The scholar at the shrine to the west of Gandino (not the one with the symbols) tells you another clue about matching the symbols. Now head back to the shrine.
At the shrine, take a look at the 4 symbols. Think of them as a diagram of the Hero's body. Identifying each of the legendary pieces of equipment shows what symbols would fit where. In case you're still lost, here's the solution:
North- Sun
East- Cross
South- Heart
West- Lightning
After putting them all into place, the symbol in the center will begin to glow. Make sure you have all the Legendary equipment equipped.
Suddenly, a floating castle will descend upon the shrine. The defenses will activate, and you must fight them.
Hell Cloud:
Use the first round of combat to set up the usual spells- MagiWard, Increase, Bikill, etc. Hell Cloud isn't too difficult. It'll use a crushing attack to hit everyone in the party for a little damage. It's other attack is Infermost. If you have MagiWard, you won't take too much damage from Infermost. The Bikill-PowerUp-Spirit Punch trick comes in handy once more here.
Once on board the castle, the demons will run up and attempt to kill you.
They won't get very far before their master, Duran, tells them that you are very important guests and that you are to remain unharmed. How thoughtful of Duran!
Explore the castle. You'll find a skeleton in one of the rooms. Talk to it to learn that this is Cloud Castle. King Zenith ruled here until Duran sealed him away. You can also find a Nut of Life and a Leaf of the World Tree in the castle.
There is a slime outside of the castle that will tell you that this castle was once part of the Dream World until Duran brought it here. He sealed everyone away too.
In the library, you'll find 2 demons discussing the castle. It seems only the person with the legendary equipment can enter this castle, but there's another human in here too. Strange...
Another demon mentions that the last human that came here was only seeking power. Could it be...?
When you're ready for the upcoming battles, head north through the large doors and up the stairs.
You'll meet Duran, the ruler of Hell Cloud Castle. Hihihi. He'll be surprised that a human gathered the 4 pieces of legendary equipment before he could. He says you're a threat. Obviously.
He summons some demons to kill you so that he can have a good time watching a battle.
Killer Machine & Land Armor:
This battle is really pretty easy. Begin with casting Bikill on both the Hero and Hassan (or whoever you plan on doing the Bikill-PowerUp-Spirit Punch trick with). Cast Increase because the Killer Machine gets 2 attacks a round and can quickly do massive amounts of damage. Kill the Killer Machine first then get the Land Armor. The Land Armor is more annoying than it is difficult. It'll frequently defend causing your attacks to do nex to nothing.
Duran is surprised you were able to defeat his minions so easily. He says the next battle will be much more difficult since your opponent is a human.
He calls forth Terry to do battle with you. It seems Terry's quest for power brought him to Duran.
Terry:
Terry is really very easy to defeat. Spirit Punch won't work on him since he'll dodge it almost every time so just use physical attacks. I found myself having the Hero, Hassan, and Slalin using physical attacks while Muriel did the Hustle Dance every round. Terry uses mainly Battlemaster skills such as Spinning Sword to do damage. Hustle Dance will heal all the damage you take every round though.
Once again, Duran is surprised by your strength. This time, he'll challenge you. Your HP and MP will be refilled before the battle.
Duran:
Duran can be a very annoying boss. Like the other Maou, he gets two attacks every round. Duran loves to cast Reflect and will frequently waste his turn to put it back up so dispel it every time you can. Spirit Punch won't work here, but Bikill + PowerUp + a phyisical attack can still be devestating. Make sure to heal every round. Duran also has a tendency to cast Nullify to remove all your support spells so don't be surprised when you have to recast them.
Duran is very amazed that you defeated him and is actually rather proud of you.
Duran will tell you that all the other Maou are nothing compared to their leader Deathtamoor. He hopes you get stronger so he can fight you once again once he is reborn.
Afterwards, Terry is rather upset that you seem content to leave him there.
Muriel will suddenly stop you.
She remembers everything and asks Terry if he does.
Muriel explains that Terry is actually her brother and that she was the girl from Gindorino. Terry will join the party after this. This scene also explains why Terry was so power-hungry- he couldn't save his sister then so he wanted to become the most powerful swordsman in the world to avenge her.
After leaving the castle, Zenithia will float back up and fill the hole in the Dream World. Return to the Dream World and head there now.
Now that Zenithia is back in the Dream World, all the people have been revived. Search Zenithia to find Small Medal x2 and a Leaf of the World Tree.
You can get the Sap of the World Tree from the boy in one of the rooms of the castle. It will recover everyone's HP completely. You can only have one at a time so when you use up the one he gives you, return to Zenithia to get another.
Many people are stunned to find that you've collected all of the pieces of the legendary equipment. When you're done talking to people, head to the throne room to talk with King Zenith.
King Zenith is glad to see you. He explains that Deathtamoor sealed away all the greatest threats: the Shrine of Dhama which teaches you powerful new skills, the Medal King for his equipment, Calberona because of Madante, and Zenithia because it is linked to the Pegasus Tower.
You'll need the Pegasus to reach the Dark World. King Zenith instructs you to go to the well which links this castle and the Pegasus Tower.
