The Warship

Level up your weapons to Level 5 and
level up your Fire, Bolt, and Ice to level 5.
Once you rest up, head back to Kashuon
and to the Chocobo Forest just below the
Castle. Catch and ride a Chocobo south
through the desert and go southeast to
reach the Warship. You could walk there,
but the enemies are quite tough and they
could totally destroy you. Disembark the
Chocobo and enter the Warship.
First thing they ask for as you enter is the
Pass. I hope you picked it up at the
Bofsk Sewers like I told you to. Give it
to him to procede. Do not talk to any of
the guards here, as like in Phin, they will
totally destroy you. Take the stairs in
the middle of the room. Find the false
wall and grab the Sleep Sword and kill
the gurads of it. Like the Ancient Sword,
this sword has a low Hit% rate. Just keep
the Mithril Sword and head back up.
Head to the door on the Northeast corner
and go down the stairs. Grab the Blind
Bow (give it to Maria) and the Thief
Gauntlets (give it to Guy). Go to the cell
and rescue Hilda and Cid. Talk to Cid and
he will escape with Hilda, and telling
Frioniel to toss the Sun Flame into the
engine. Head back to the first floor.
Take the stairs at the southeast corner
down to the 2nd basement. Go around,
take the door, and head downstairs. Go
over to the treasures on the right side of
the middle stairway. From left to right,
Trident (give to Gordon), Gouche (hold
on to), Ice Shield (give to Guy) and Giant
Helmet (give to Frioniel). The Ice Shield
is guarded by a Gigas, who is super tough.
You can skip that and buy later, but if you
fight, have a Life spell and magic ready.
After getting the treasure, climb the stairs,
go through the door, and down the stairs.
Make your way around, avoiding the
guards, to the middle door. This is the
engine room. Toss the Sun Flame in and
the Warship will start to explode. The
Dark Knight will step out and talk to them.
Maria says that the voice sounds familiar.
Frioniel immediately escapes out of the
Warship while it explodes. Cid is waiting
outside and flies the party to Altea.
Unequip Gordon except for the Trident
and Mithril Helmet. Give Frioniel the
Sleep Sword, since he has the Giant's
Helmet, but still hang on to the Mithril
Sword. Go talk to the King and he will
make Gordon the Commander in Chief,
he will send Mihn to unseal the ultimate
magic, and will ask Frioniel to head to
Dist in search of Dragoons and a Hiryuu.
As the King dies, his last words are to
look after Hilda.
Go to the throne room and Gordon will
now be sitting there (wonder where Hilda
is). He will talk about the [Dragoon]s
(another password). Say that password
back to Gordon to get the password
[Hiryuu]. You must now find a way to
Dist.
Head to Palm and talk to the woman at
the entrance. She is a female pirate named
Layla. She offers a ride to Dist, but
Maria feels strange about doing so. Go
out, save, and hop on the ship. After a
while, it will stop. Pirates will appear and
Layla will demand that she will spare you
if you leave everything behind. Yeah, right.
You then fight 8 Pirates. With only 45 HP
each, this fight is easy.
Once you kill them, Guy offers Layla to
join them. After a moment of thinking,
Layla joins the party. Give her the Mithril
Armor, Shield, and Gauntlet, and the
Gouche. Trade her Goldpin Helmet for
Maria's Mithril Helmet. Also, note that
Layla is left handed, so make sure the
Gouche goes in her left hand and the
Mithril Shield in the right.
