Cecil the Paladin and the other heroes have just defeated the Giant of Babel at its core. After a long discussion with the Dark Knight Golbez, he learns that his arch-enemy, who killed the King of Baron, and stole the Crystals in order to summon the monstrous titan that he just defeated, is his own brother. But despite this, Golbez is not the true villain. He was under the control of Zemus, a man imprisoned in the core of the moon, whose goal is to destroy all civilization on Earth, so that he might live there himself. This same Zemus had also been the one who controlled Kain, Cecil's friend and the commander of Baron's Dragoons, and forced him to betray his allies. Now, however, Golbez has regained his consciousness, and plans to go to the moon, along with the Lunarian FuSoYa, to redeem himself of his bloodstained past. Cecil and his friends cannot leave them to go alone, however. They hurry to the Lunar Whale, the only vessel that can take them to the moon, in an attempt to follow Golbez.
But it seems Golbez and FuSoYa have been stopped in their tracks by a plot hole...
FuSoYa: If I may ask, Golbez, how are you going to get us to the moon without the use of the Lunar Whale?
Golbez: That's easy, you old fool, we just have to... err...
FuSoYa: Evidently, you let Zemus do the thinking when you were under his control.
Golbez: Hmph. We'll just have to get there before Cecil and company take off with the intent of helping us. Although I'd hoped not to involve him any more...
Later, at the Lunar Whale, Cecil, Kain, and the Ninja Edge were planning on leaving to go fight Zemus alone. However, Rosa, Cecil's love interest and a White Mage, and Rydia, a Summoner, would have nothing of it. They argued for hours over the topic, and soon Cecil's other friends arrived, with the intent of helping. One by one, Yang the Monk, Edward the Bard, Cid the Engineer, and the Twin Mages Palom and Porom arrived. By the time the argument had ended, Golbez and FuSoYa had showed up as well. Now all of them would go to the moon, and defeat Zemus. With 12 of the world's greatest warriors, there was no way he would stand a chance! But Zemus, of course, had other plans...
They all went up to the command deck in order to start up the ship. But as soon as they arrived, they noticed that the Crystal which would teleport them to the moon had been shattered! Someone, undoubtedly under the control of Zemus, had sabotaged their plan! Now they would have to use the backup engine, which, despite being more powerful than any airship's engine, would take them several days to get to the moon. During the long trip, the one under Zemus' control would probably try to pick them off, one by one. If the heroes were going to live to see their arrival at the moon, they would have to take matters into their own hands and find the saboteur.
