FINAL FANTASY VIII guide · Laguna's flashback sequence

Squall and his party fall into a dream sequence experiencing Laguna's quiet life as a monster-patrol guardsman in the rural village of Winhill. Laguna lives with Raine and Ellone, visits the local pub, and patrols the town roads to clear out invading monsters. The sequence concludes after patrolling the village perimeter and resting back at Raine's house.
