Baron
-…The glow around Baron is gone! Just by virtue of a critical mass of Eidolons getting unshackled?
--Game won’t let me wander around the castle. Makes sense – things are kind of time-sensitive in the throne room.
-Odin awakens! Yesssss!!
-He remembers Cecil, Rosa, everyone!
-AND THEN TURNS AROUND ON EMC
-Wait.
-What?
Will the real Cecil please stand up?
-I thought Cecil was dead and this was his copy, not the mind-controlled version of the real Cecil.
-He called Golbez brother, and LOL at Golbez sassing him.
-EMG boss fight. And she summons Leviathan. I’m surprised she hasn’t busted out Bahamut yet.
-Such a relief to have a white mage in the party again.
-Oh. Shouldn’t have spoken. There’s Bahamut.
-And now EMG has a weird… bubbly… aura thing going on. She’s really throwing the kitchen sink at us, including Meteor.
-Rydia’s “Sylph” summon is very useful here for nice extra healing.
-BEAT HER. BARELY.
-Oh, right. Golbez rains on my parade, reminding me she’s one of many. Goody, that’s not hopeless at all.
-And the two more EMGs basically put capslock and exclamation points on what Golbez said by showing up.
Now it’s a party!
They take the crystals.
-Golbez confirms that the falling moon is different from the Lunarians’ moon. Time to travel back to the moon. MOON #2!
-Golbez calls down the Lunar Whale.

Cecil’s Brain
-Flashback central here:
#1) Hooded Man meeting Evil Moon Cecil. He’s not sure if he knows HM, but has a tickle in his brain.
#2) Harley and Edward’s visit.
#3) The bombing of Mist with Kain, and how he could repeat that by giving Edward the same ring.
#4) The main party meeting of Cecil and EMG.
-Poor Cecil is really confused by all of this. Mind control sucks. It’s trippy, too. In these visions, he seems himself as a dark knight again.
#5) Cecil falling to EMG and Bahamut during the initial assault on Baron.

Next time: To the (other) moon.
