With the help of the Eidolons, the party is finally able to enter Baron Castle. They arrive to witness Ceodore, Rosa, Kain, Edward, and Cid locked in a fierce battle with Cecil and Odin.
The battle with Cecil is mostly scripted, all you should need to do is attack Cecil since Odin is pretty much invincible. You really don't have to worry about Odin either, as he won't attack you at all. Try to keep Ceodore and Rosa's health high in this fight as well since they will join you in the next big battle.
The next fight is with the Mysterious Girl once again, however this time you can really bust her in the chops. Our team consists of Golbez, Rosa, Ceodore, Rydia, and Edge, and to be honest, all we really need for this fight is Rosa and Rydia. First get haste going on your team with Rosa and Ceodore, have Edge use a Spider Silk on the girl then use his spells, while Rydia uses summons and Golbez uses his -aga spells. Once you have your team buffed with haste we can really lay the damage on the girl, have Rosa band with Rydia's Black Magic to learn the Holy Burst band, which will almost always deal 9,999 damage to the Mysterious girl. Have Ceodore cast shell on the party as well to help deal with the damage and put him on healing duties after. One thing to watch for in this fight is if the Mysterious Girl starts to flash. This indicates that she is preparing to use Meteor, so try to take her out before she can, which with the damage your putting out with Holy Burst, she probably won't even get a chance to.
Once the fight is over, watch the scenes and you will get an chance to save. Make sure you save in a different file since we can't come back to the overworld here once we continue with the story, and if you missed anything you won't be able to pick it up.
Watch the rest of the scenes and we once we are on the moon we now have access to all the party members we've gathered. We have now entered the final stretch of the game, however we have a rather vast dungeon ahead of us. If you've done everything like I have up to this point you won't be missing any of the missable party members either (Calca, Brina, the Ninjas, and Harley).
At this point, I highly recommend you spend time and grind some levels for those you wish to use to level 50 to match Kain, Ceodore and the others.
You should also note that while we have Cecil as a member, his stats will be severely sub-par thanks to his condition, he also won't have any of his White Magic available as well, but don't neglect to level him up.
I will be spending quite a bit of time between now and the next segment grinding levels, and in the next segment we will be venturing into the lunar subterrain one more time.
