If the unfamiliar landscape had thoroughly confused Cecil before, looking nothing like the lands of Baron, nor Eblan, nor any place he was aware of, the...town that he now approached could make him believe he was delusional, or under some spell. The buildings, while seeming like residencies, were all...shaped blandly, as if no one had taken the time to carve them out to look like an actual house. Cecil wasn't in a position to question why someone would build a community that looked so odd, especially considering that, if anyone lived in the small gathering of houses, he needed their assistance, considering he'd awoken half an hour before, in the middle of nowhere, feeling as if he'd been through the against Zemus a second time.
Cecil had been wandering since, and his fatigue had only worsened to the point where he continually stumbled over rises in the ground or rocks. If anything, he needed a place to sit, some cold water, and if it could be helped, something decent to eat. He had grown hardy while serving the king and while journeying with Rosa and the others, yes, but Cecil couldn't remember ever feeling quite like he felt now - stretched too thin, drowsy, and borderline sick to his stomach. He wondered if this feeling was what Rosa experienced while pregnant. Something had to explain her strange cravings for foods like pickles...
"And where are you, Rosa?", he asked the open air, quietly. The last Cecil had known, he had gone to bed with her for the night, and he thought he'd heard her breathing slow before he himself had fallen asleep for the night. Yet he awoke not in his own bed with her at his side, but in a field. No sensible explanation really seemed to exist for why Cecil would find himself in such a situation, unless someone very clever was playing an extremely elaborate trick. Still, Cecil had never been a heavy sleeper even the nights when he could sleep, so for someone to have moved him so far in his sleep was downright ludicrous.
Once he had decided that an innocent excuse for his current predicament couldn't be possible, worry had started to set in, and had been quickly cast aside. In the middle of nowhere, with no transportation and no answers, Cecil didn't have the luxury of knowing enough, or being able to move quickly enough, to do anything about his worries. Now, though, as this little gathering of buildings became more obvious and Cecil could make out the forms of people standing in the shade of their strange homes, he might be able to get back to his worrying.
One spotted him before Cecil needed to call to them from his tired throat, and he counted himself thankful for it. Before he knew it, several people in lighter attire - and he could understand why, with the shoreline nearby and the heat - rushed up to him and immediately started rattling off questions to him, asking if he was alright and if he wanted them to take his sword. "My worst need's water," he quietly told them, and the water bottle that one of the women pulled from a little bag she was carrying couldn't reach his lips quickly enough. Before he knew it, the bottle was spent, and with the most gracious nod he could muster he turned it back over to the girl, who ran off to fetch him some more. He was too tired to tell her not to worry about it.
Once they'd dragged over a box and let him sit down, he took a few breaths to appreciate resting his legs for a time before he turned his eyes back up to all of them. "I don't mean to insult your town, but I have no idea where I am," he admitted. "Well...if you're like the rest of the people we've found, there's a pretty good reason for that." Cecil regarded the speaker with expectant, and confused, eyes. "This is Gran Pulse...which is a planet."

CECIL HARVEY HEY THERE, THEY CALL ME CECIL AND I'M CURRENTLY 21 YEARS OLD. I'M FROM THE WORLD OF EARTH WHERE I AM THE KING OF BARON. I GO FOR MY WIFE AND I WILL THROW MY WEIGHT BEHIND CIVILIAN. ------------------------------------------------- Weapon:
+Kingsword: The finely-crafted weapon that Cecil was granted with upon becoming the king of Baron, he carries it on his person at all times due to it being worthy for both ornate purposes and for actual combat.
Abilities:
+Combat Skills: Though Cecil typically prefers to wield a sword in battle, he's got training with any number of weapons including staves, bows and arrows, and even weapons as small as knives. He's no weapons master - he's best with his sword - but he can typically adapt to a combat situation with his experience with various arms.
+Paladin Abilities: Being a paladin, Cecil has access to a great number of abilities that brand him as the proverbial white knight. He has extensive white magic abilities though he's not a pure healer, and many of his powers allow him to cover for allies and take damage for them.
Personality: Cecil could be a haughty man. He could let his influence, the praise he receives, and the fact that he's long been attached to the best-looking woman in Baron turn him into a pompous jerk, as such things would do to the typical man. Instead, Cecil might almost be too reluctant to claim the great things that he has achieved, though he's started to slowly grow into them and attain some assertiveness. That said, he's not some meek and mild little coward who shies from the limelight. While soft-spoken, through actions Cecil manages to lead and prove that he's got some force to him. He's also man enough to admit when he's wrong or unfair, and that's more than can be said of many men in positions of power.
Morally, Cecil has dealt with certain complications about the rights and wrongs of following orders, and has come out with a strong sense of justice and the ability to make his own moral decisions. Most of those moral decisions fall strongly on the side of what would be universally considered good, though Cecil has been forced to play his hand and make decisions that he wouldn't normally condone for the good of his friends. With a kingdom to rule, though, Cecil has had to think about the good of the kingdom as a whole, only furthering his grip on finding the most moral answer.
History: Cecil was born to a Lunarian named Kluya and Cecilia from Earth. Cecil's father was killed before he was born, and his mother died in labor. His older brother Theodor ran away with him, but abandoned him outside Baron. The King of Baron found him and named him Cecil, since he resembled his late mother.
Cecil was raised by the king, which initially caused friction between him and the young Kain Highwind. Kain thought Cecil received special treatment and wanted to fight him, but Rosa intervened. As the three grew up, they became close friends. Kain and Rosa followed in the footsteps of their parents and became a Dragoon and a White Mage respectively, while the king had Cecil train to be a Dark Knight. Cecil harnessed the job's dark powers and became one of the kingdom's top warriors. He later became the captain of Baron's airship fleet, the Red Wings.
The story opens with Cecil commanding a raid on the city of Mysidia to steal the Water Crystal for the king. He succeeds, but he and his crew become suspicious of the king, wondering whether robbing national treasures from innocent people is right. Cecil reminds his crew they are the Red Wings, and must represent Baron at all times.
When Cecil returns to Baron Castle, Baigan, the captain of the guards of Baron, notices something strange about Cecil, and takes Cecil to meet the king. Cecil hands over the Crystal, and is appalled when the king does not even thank him. Cecil complains he and his crew do not understand the reasons for robbing Crystals from innocent people.
The king discharges Cecil from the captainship and orders him to hunt summoned monsters in the Mist Valley, and to deliver a ring known as the Carnelian Signet to the village of Mist. Kain comes to Cecil's defense, but to no avail, as the king orders him to accompany Cecil. That night, Rosa comes to Cecil's room to show him her sympathy. Cecil is upset because he is torn between doing what he believes in and doing what the king orders. He swears to never perform another act of evil on behalf of Baron and states that despite loving Rosa, he knows they can never be together because of his profession as a Dark Knight.
The next morning Cecil and Kain leave for Mist. They pass through the Mist Cave where a voice orders them to return to Baron and when Cecil and Kain refuse, the mist gathers and the pair has to fight the Mist Dragon. After slaying the dragon they head to Mist, but the package they were supposed to deliver opens and bombs fly out and burn the village. Cecil and Kain see a little girl with her dead mother who explains that whenever a summoned monster dies, the summoner who summoned it dies as well. When Cecil and Kain realize they defeated the Mist Dragon and thus accidentally killed the girl's mother, they offer to take her to safety and pledge not to follow any more orders from the king. She does not listen and summons Titan and an earthquake makes an avalanche separate Mist from the rest of the valley.
Cecil wakes up with Kain gone and the girl lying wounded. Cecil takes her to Kaipo and allows her to recover at the inn, but she does not speak to Cecil. That night soldiers from Baron arrive at Kaipo and demand Cecil hand over the girl, saying the king decreed the Summoners of Mist too dangerous to be left alive. Cecil does not allow the soldiers to kidnap her, and fights them off. The next morning the girl thanks Cecil for protecting her, reveals herself to be Rydia of Mist and joins Cecil's party formally.
Cecil and Rydia hear of a sick girl from Baron who had contracted Desert Fever and find Rosa resting in a nearby home. The doctors say they have to find the Sand Pearl to cure her and Cecil and Rydia go north through the Underground Waterway to Damcyan meeting an old man, Tellah, on the way. The three arrive at Damcyan in time to see the Red Wings, now commanded by Golbez, steal the Fire Crystal and find Tellah's daughter, Anna, who soon dies of her wounds. Tellah vows to get vengeance on Golbez and leaves despite Cecil's protests.
Anna's lover, Prince Edward, mourns for her death but Cecil and Rydia snap him out of it. Cecil tells him he is now the king of Damcyan and must act as such. Edward agrees to take them to the Antlion's Den where the Sand Pearl is found. They return to Kaipo and use the Sand Pearl to cure Rosa and decide to defend the remaining Crystals deducing the Air Crystal in Fabul is the next target.
To reach Fabul they must cross Mt. Hobs, and on top of the mountain the party finds a Monk named Yang Fang Leiden fighting off Golbez's troops. Cecil and his friends help Yang defeat them. Cecil warns Yang of the danger ahead, and joins Yang in the journey back to Fabul.
In Fabul, Yang warns the king of Baron's incoming attack, and Cecil and Edward back him up. The king is skeptical because he cannot trust the Dark Knight Cecil. Yang convinces him of Cecil's loyalty, and Cecil, Yang, and Edward help defend the castle with Rosa and Rydia put on relief. After the battle against the Baronian army, Kain, who is now working for Golbez, corners Cecil in the Crystal Room. The two duel, but Cecil fails to beat Kain. Golbez defeats Edward and Yang and takes Rosa hostage. Kain takes the Crystal and leaves.
Cecil decides to sneak into Baron and get an airship from Cid Pollendina, who was also skeptical of Baron's activities. The party boards a ship provided by the king of Fabul and set sail to Baron, but on the way the ship is attacked by Leviathan, the Terror of the Sea. Cecil, Rydia, Edward, and Yang are all blown off the ship.
Cecil lands on a beach near Mysidia, the town he raided as the captain of the Red Wings, and learns he is unwanted. Cecil meets the Elder of Mysidia and tells him his plight. The Elder tells Cecil if he wants to defeat Golbez he would have to relinquish his Dark Sword and acquire the acceptance of the Holy Light by becoming a Paladin. Cecil accepts the challenge, and the Elder sends him to Mount Ordeals with Palom, a Black Mage, and Porom, a White Mage. On Mount Ordeals they meet Tellah again, who has been searching for the legendary magic Meteor to defeat Golbez.
Tellah agrees to help them and at the top of the mountain they arrive at a room full of mirrors, and a mysterious light who refers to Cecil as "my son" commands him to take a sword, which transforms him into a Paladin. Cecil has to overcome his former feelings of hatred by facing himself as a Dark Knight. Succeeding by not raising his sword against his darkness, Cecil becomes a full-fledged Paladin. Tellah also learns Meteor at this time, but finds he is not strong enough to cast it.
Cecil, Tellah, Palom, and Porom return to Mysidia where the Elder congratulates them and speaks of the Mysidian Legend of the sword Cecil now holds, and how only a chosen one can wield it. Cecil agrees to defeat Golbez and asks the Elder to open the Devil's Road to Baron, and the Elder obliges. In Baron, Cecil and his friends learn Cid has a new airship, but was arrested when he refused to let the king see it. Cecil tries to enter the castle, but the guards stop him.
Cecil overhears a martial-artist was invited to be an officer in Baron, and that he was hanging out at the inn. Cecil discovers it is Yang who orders the guards to attack Cecil, and then attacks him himself. Cecil snaps Yang back to reality, and Yang realizes he was under the control of the king of Baron the whole time. Yang rejoins Cecil's party and finds the Key of Baron in his pocket, which the party use to enter Baron Castle via the Ancient Waterway.
Cecil's party reach the castle and meet up with Baigan who tells Cecil he is not under Golbez's control, and that he is loyal only to the King of Baron. He offers to help Cecil, and Cecil accepts it, but Palom and Porom smell a monster in the area and point Baigan out as the monster. Cecil's party fights Baigan, and Cecil proceeds to meet the king who is upset Cecil has become a Paladin. When Cecil mentions the king of Baron's true name, the king lets out that he killed the real king, and Cecil demands the king reveal himself.
The king is Cagnazzo, the Archfiend of Water, whom Cecil's party defeat in battle. Cid escapes prison and joins Cecil's party, but Cagnazzo has one last trick up his sleeve; when Cecil tries to escape, the walls cave in. Palom and Porom save Cecil's party by petrifying themselves to hold the walls back. Tellah tries to heal them, but to no avail, and Cid takes them to his newest airship: the Enterprise.
Kain issues an ultimatum to Cecil: Cecil would have to get the Earth Crystal in Troia or Rosa would die. Cecil has no choice but to go to Troia where he learns from the Epopts that the Dark Elf, a monster who lives in Lodestone Cavern to the north, has stolen the Crystal. He finds Edward recovering from the Leviathan attack who gives Cecil a Whisperweed as he is too weak to help Cecil out.
Cecil's party heads to the cave to meet with the Dark Elf, but the cave is covered in a magnetic field and Cecil and his friends cannot equip metallic weapons or armor. The Dark Elf thus defeats Cecil. Edward senses this and plays a melody on his harp. The Whisperweed reacts and the Dark Elf loses control of himself and Cecil can attack him with his sword. Cecil reclaims the Earth Crystal and he and his party head back to Troia, where Kain makes him get on the Enterprise.
Kain guides Cecil's party to the Tower of Zot where Golbez is holding Rosa prisoner. Cecil's party climb the tower and meet Golbez at the top who takes the Crystal but would not free Rosa. Tellah attacks with Meteor, severely wounding Golbez. Cecil rushes forward to strike, but Golbez knocks him down. As Golbez is about to strike the finishing blow he stops and backs away from Cecil, realizing Cecil is his younger brother. Cecil is surprised Golbez has stopped and Golbez tells Cecil it is not over, and escapes. Everyone surrounds Tellah, who is dying due to the effects of casting Meteor. He asks Cecil, Yang, and Cid to avenge Anna for him, and dies.
Kain is now free of Golbez's control and takes the party to Rosa and Cecil shares a kiss with her. Rosa and Kain join the group, but they cannot escape the tower without fighting Barbariccia, the Archfiend of Air. Before she dies, Barbariccia tries to kill the party by collapsing the tower, but Rosa casts the Exit spell and the party is warped to Cecil's room in Baron.
It looks like Golbez now possesses all four Crystals, but Kain speaks of the Dark Crystals hidden in the Underworld and explains Golbez needs the Crystals to open "the way to the Moon". Cecil decides to head underground to protect the remaining Crystals and Kain shows Cecil the Key of Magma used to enter the Underworld.
Cid tells the party the Enterprise is back in Baron due to a remote control feature. The party head for the town of Agart and throw the Key of Magma in the well, which opens the way to the Underworld. The party enter the Underworld via the Enterprise, but they are too late; the Red Wings are already battling tanks the dwarves use for war.
The Enterprise is damaged and Cecil's party seek help from the dwarves in their castle where they meet King Giott, the ruler of the dwarves. He asks the party for help, but Cid has to take a leave of absence to repair the Enterprise and wrap its body in Mystic Silver to help the airship withstand the intense heat of the Underworld. Yang senses something in the Crystal Room behind the throne and Giott opens it up for Cecil's party. They find Luca's dolls, known as the Calcabrina, under Golbez's control and Cecil's party defeats them.
Golbez shows up and places the party in a magical hold. He summons the Shadow Dragon to eliminate each party member one by one except for Cecil. The Mist Dragon appears and defeats the Shadow Dragon releasing Cecil and an adult Rydia appears and defeats Golbez. The party, Cecil and Rosa in particular, are happy to see Rydia who has been living in the Feymarch and thus aged into adulthood in a faster pace than normal, and she offers her help. The weakened Golbez still steals the Crystal and escapes.
The party heads for the Tower of Babil to get the other Crystals back and find Dr. Lugae, a scientist under Golbez working with Rubicante, the Archfiend of Fire. Rubicante is teleported away and Cecil's party defeats Lugae. The party finds the key to stopping the Super Cannon, but when they reach the Super Cannon its operators would not go down without a fight or making the cannon unstoppable. Yang is determined to stop the cannon himself, and is left behind.
Golbez catches the party escaping the tower and drops them off a bridge. Cid catches them on the Enterprise before they fall into the lava. The Red Wings chase the Enterprise, and Cid sacrifices himself to save the party and the airship, which escapes the Underground back into the Overworld. Before he jumps off the Enterprise Cid asks Cecil to return to Baron and talk to his workers. Cecil does so, and the workers attach a hook to the airship used to pick up and carry the Hovercraft which is used to enter Cave of Eblan.
In the cave the party finds Rubicante fighting Edge, the prince of Eblan. Rubicante defeats Edge and the party tries to convince him to join them. Edge agrees to join because he has taken a liking to Rydia, albeit she is not impressed with Edge's flirting.
The party enters the upper half of the Tower of Babil and find Edge's parents at the top murdered by Rubicante and transformed into monsters by Dr. Lugae. Edge brings them to their senses and Rubicante appears and attacks the party. Cecil's party defeats him and enters the Crystal Room, where they fall back to the Underground and find a new airship: the Falcon.
The Falcon cannot fly over the lava, so the party heads back to the Dwarves' Castle to visit King Giott who says it is time to defend the last Crystal in the Sealed Cave. He gives Cecil's party the key to opening the cave, which is the necklace of his daughter Luca. To get the Falcon to fly over the lava Cecil heads for the hospital to find Cid recovering who remodels the airship.
The party heads for the Sealed Cave and work their way to the bottom where they find the Crystal. Golbez possesses Kain who steals the Crystal and runs off. The party heads back to the Upper World (after Cid attaches a drill to the head of the Falcon) and heads for Mysidia, where the Elder prays for something to help the party. That something is the Lunar Whale, the "Ship of Light from The Moon", which lets the party fly to the Moon.
On the Moon the party finds a palace where a man named Fusoya sleeps. Fusoya wakes up and explains Golbez is being controlled by a Lunarian named Zemus and reveals the real reason Golbez is gathering the Crystals: the Crystals are the key to activating the Giant of Babil which can grant wishes. Zemus wishes for the Earth to be destroyed, and he is using Golbez to do it. The party returns to Earth with Fusoya, but they are too late: the Giant of Babil has awakened, and goes on a destructive spree.
A fully-recovered Cid leads an army of leaders from all over the world, as well as Cecil's friends, to do battle with the Giant. They help Cecil and his friends enter the Giant and after defeating the CPU an angry Golbez appears. Fusoya knocks Golbez back to reality and Cecil learns he is his older brother, Theodor. Fusoya and Golbez head to the Moon to fight Zemus, and Kain rejoins the party.
On the Lunar Whale Cecil asks Rydia and Rosa to leave the ship, as he feels it is too dangerous for them to go to the Moon. They oblige but stow away to the Moon anyway, and convince Cecil they should join. Rosa asks Cecil who would heal the wounds, and Rydia believes they are all fighting for the common cause. Cecil agrees to have them on the team and they head to the Lunar Core where they witness Fusoya and Golbez defeat Zemus. The hatred possessing Zemus, Zeromus, jumps out and attacks the party. With help from old friends, they defeat Zeromus using the crystal.
Back on Earth Cecil and Rosa marry and take the throne of Baron with all but Kain attending.
