Disple-G and at the bottom will be a treasure chest containing Dalmatians
91,92,93. When you get close to the entrance there will be a cut-scene.
Whe you regain control climb up the platforms, while getting the treasure
chests with 2 Dispel-Gs, Megalixir and Blizzaga Ring along the way. Keep
going until you reach the Castle Gates and examine the switch.
Go jump in the last bubble to be taken to a new area. Jump on the pillars
for some treasure chests with Tornado-Gs. Now jump down and take the bubble
back to the previous area. Here, take the lower bubble to the Waterway.
There's a save point here, so save if you like. Open the treasure chest for
a Firaga Ring. Now smash the gate with Beast and go through the bubble. Go to
the release button on the west wall. Press it. Then to the right you will
find another release button. Press it. Go to where the gate opened and

the big door that was closed off earlier. There will be a cut-scene, and
you will have to fight Riku.

Just keep hitting him and jump out of the way when he does his plunge attack.
Also, there are barrels around the place that contain HP balls. Remember to
cast Aero on yourself to play it safe and he shouldn't be so hard.
There will be a cut-scene after you defeat him. You will learn the White
Trinity (Trinity Detect).
Go to the Library and in the bookcase to the left will be a Klana Vol. 8. Go
to the end of the libary and place the Klana book near the place that has

Mythril. Activate the green trinity near the table to receive the book Azul

bookshelf that is near the table and place it in the other bookshelf
downstairs from where you got the Azul book from.
Go back upstairs and take the the green book from the bookcase on the left
side. Jump on the table where the the save point is to get the Theon book.
Put it where you got the green book from. When the bookcase moves aside
push the button to unlock the door.
Open that door. Walk down the circle way and examine the statue. It will
say to push it so push it to get a treasure chest. The next statue will say
to crush the two pots beside it.
Jump down and jump down in the water fountain to get a Emblem Piece. Go

Go to the other side to open a treasure chest which contains a Dispel-G.
Go to the save point and switch party members to where you have Donald, and
Goofy.
Go through the door and do the Red Trinity in front of the statue and jump
down to get another Emblem Piece. Now you have 3 Emblem Pieces. Go back
through the door and go to stone that ahs a thunderbolt engraved in it. Use
thunder on it and platforms will come of the middle platform in the air. Go
to each of the candles and use fire on them. The blue stuff in the middle
platform will go away. Jump onto the platform to recieve another Emblem
Piece. Go downstairs and there is a door that has 4 empty places. Insert the
Emblem Pieces in it and there will be a cut-scene.
Go through the door and examine the blue pole. Go through the opening to go
to the waterway. Go to the leftside and step on the platform to be taken to
the Dungeon. Open both treasure chests to get 2 Float-G's. Do the blue
trinity in here to get lot's of hp balls.
Go back to the lift stop and go to the Castle Gates and examine the blue
pole to go up. Next go examine the red pole. You'll be on a huge platform.
When the red pole shows up in the middle of the platform, examine it. When
you get off there will be a Blue Trinity and a treasure chest containing a
Dispel-G.
Go down the stairs and examine the blue pole. Go up the stairs and to your

Chapel. There will be a cut-scene. Walk around and there will be a another
cut-scene. Now you will have to fight Maleficent.
Boss: MaleficentExperience Points: 6000p Items Dropped: Ansem Report 5
This is an easy battle. Keep jumping on the platform and hit her. If the
platform is too high up to jump on, then just hit the platform until it
falls down. Also get out of the way when she is saying a spell. Don't worry
about the heartless because Donald and Goofy can take care of them. Cast
Aero and make sure that you're fully stocked with Potions/Hi-Potions, along
with some Ethers for your MP.
When you defeat her there will be a cut-scene. Donald will learn Cheer.
Follow Maleficent and there will be another cut-scene where Maleficent turns
into a dragon. You'll have to fight again after that.
Boss: Dragon MaleficentExperience Points: 6000p Items Dropped: Fireglow
Use aero and keep attacking her. When she does her shockwave attack just
jump out of the way. Try to avoid the green flames at all cost, since that's
her deadliest move. Be sure you're fully stocked with Potions and Ethers too.
But if she still annoys you, then just cast Stop on her.
When she's finally defeated, there will be a cut-scene and you'll receive
the Fireglow. Turn around and go through the portal. Next go to the opening
that is near the save point(don't forget to save) head for the Lift Stop. Go
to the opening to the left. Next go through the door and then go up the
stairs. There will be another cut-scene, then you'll have to fight Riku
again.
Boss: RikuExperience Points: 8500p You'll fight him alone this time. I suggest you bring some Ethers with you
just in case you run out of MP. Also, having powerful a keyblade such as the
Metal Chocobo should make this battle a bit easier. Now cast Aero on
yourself as soon as the battle begins, since his moves are quite damaging.
But the good thing is most of them can be avoided using Glide. Simply attack
him, or use any of your special abilities such as Strike Raid or Ars Arcanum
on him. You should win after a while.
When the battle is over Sora will learn Ragnarok. There will be a cut-scene,
then go back to the Entrance Hall for another cut-scene.
Traverse Town 3
You'll find yourself at the Vacant House in Traverse Town. After the
cutscene, go talk to Cid. He'll tell you to find the other Navi-Gummi, so
head for the Secret Waterway at the 2nd District. Here, talk to Kairi and
examine the mural on the wall to get the other Navi-Gummi. Go back to Kairi
for a long cutscene. You'll receive the Oathkeeper keyblade afterwards.
Head back to the 1st District and talk to Cid again. He'll install the
Navigation Gummis for you.
Also, don't forget to take the Fireglow gem to the Fairy Godmother for the
Mushu summon.
Now you must go back to Hallow Bastion using the new warp hole. When you
land at Hallow Bastion there will be a cut-scene.
Go to the entrance of the Castle and activate the white trinity to get a
Firaga-G. Make sure your party includes Beast. Go back to the Grand Hall.
First go up the stairs and there will be a cut-scene. Walk up to the
keyhole to be taken to the Dark Depths. There will be a boss fight.
Battle: BehemothExperience Points: 16,000p Equipment Dropped: Omega Arts
This battle is pretty easy. Just jump on his back, lock on the head and
attack. Once his horn begins to gather energy, that means he's about to
unleash a somewhat devastating lightning attack, so get away from him to
avoid it. Cast Aero on yourself and heal when necessary... that's about it.
After the battle, there'll be a short dialogue between Sora and the
princesses. You'll also get the Firaga upgrade. Now all that's left is the
End of the World, so feel free to finish whatever side quest that needs
completing.
Also, don't forget to go back to the Library in Hollow Bastion and talk to
Aerith for the Ansem Reports 2, 4, 6, 10, then to Belle for the Divine Rose
keyblade. Be sure to go back to the Grand Hall as well for the Oblivion
key chain and puppies 61-63. When you're ready, ride your Gummi Ship to the
final area.
