[edit] Plot

Main Article: Plot (FFIV)

Birthed from womb of Dragon's maw
And borne unto the stars
By light and darkness cast aloft
Are dreamtide oaths resworn
Moon is swathed in ever-light
Ne'er again to know eclipse
Earth, with hallow'd bounth reconciled

Seduced by the promised power of the Crystals, the kingdom of Baron begins employing unprovoked force to seize powerful crystals from peaceful nations. The dark knight Cecil – Lord Captain of Baron’s elite force, the Red Wings – is ordered by his king to obtain the Crystals, but soon begins to question the monarch's motives. Enraged, the king accuses him of disloyalty, strips Cecil of his command, and sends him off to slay a mysterious beast that lurks in the nearby Valley of Mist. Cecil embarks on a fateful journey that will bring trials, betrayals, friendship, loss and self-discovery. Can Cecil open his eyes and become the man of honor that he must be?

[edit] Battle System

The Final Fantasy IV Battle System uses the Active-Time Battle System. As you start the battle, a gauge is shown next to each character's name. The gauge fills up over time, and when the gauge is full, the character may attack, perform an ability, or cast a spell. The enemies do not have a visible bar, but are also under the time gauge.
