← All areas in this guide
Squall and his party arrive in the Galbadian capital to rendezvous with General Caraway and carry out an assassination plot against Sorceress Edea during her parade. Before Caraway reveals the plan, the party is tested by being sent to the Tomb of the Unknown King to retrieve a student's ID number. During the nighttime parade, the team splits into two squads to trap and snipe the Sorceress from the city's triumphal arch.
