Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Upon arriving at Doma Castle, proceed west then east. In the next room, choose to rest. After healing, Cyan will act strangely. Investigate him to trigger a sequence where the Dream Stooges enter his mind.
  2. 2
    You will begin in Cyan's Dream Sequence. If Cyan was your fourth party member, you start with the third; if he was your third, you start with the fourth. Use the nearby Save Point. Head north and follow the path. At the three doors, take the left one to find your first party member (e.g., Locke). Speak to them to rejoin the party.
  3. 3
    Go north and through the door. Reappear, go north into the northern door, then through the door on the right to find your second party member (e.g., Edgar). Speak to them to rejoin.
  4. 4
    Go northwest and through the door. Reappear, go north through the door to find a Save Point. Use it, then go through the middle door. Head west to find another door and proceed through it.
  5. 5
    Collect your party members as soon as possible to make the subsequent battles easier.
  6. 6
    Head south. At the door, heal and re-equip if necessary. It is recommended to use equipment that absorbs, nullifies, or resists elements. Proceed through the door to initiate a boss battle.
  7. 7
    Boss Battle: Curlax, Laragorn, Moebius. Curlax uses basic attacks, Hit, Fira, Firaga, Delta Attack (can Petrify), Arise, Silence, Reflect, Stop, Slow, and White Wind. Laragorn uses basic attacks, Hit, Blizzara, Blizzaga, Delta Attack, and Reflect. Moebius uses basic attacks, Hit, Thundara, Thundaga, Delta Attack, Cura, Haste, Protect, and Shell.
  8. 8
    It is advisable to start the battle by using Kirin (for Regen), Fenrir (for dodging), and Siren (to stop magic spells from Laragorn). Focus on defeating Curlax first by using Blizzara/Blizzaga spells. If you struggle, use the Sleep status.
  9. 9
    Next, target Laragorn. He should already be Silenced. His low Attack stat makes him less threatening after being Silenced. Use Fira/Firaga spells against him.
  10. 10
    Finally, focus on Moebius. Berserking him at the start of the fight is recommended, similar to how Laragorn was treated when Silenced. He has no elemental weaknesses, so use your strongest attacks to defeat him.
  11. 11
    After the battle, proceed through the door that was previously guarded.
  12. 12
    Phantom Train Sequence: Head west. Enter the first car to find and use the Save Point. Continue west to find a chest and a purplish switch. Activate the switch and open the chest to obtain a Genji Glove.
  13. 13
    Go further west to find a chest blocked by an open one. Obtain the Lump of Metal from the chest further west, then examine the open chest to access the Flame Shield chest behind it.
  14. 14
    You will encounter six open chests. Flip the switch and note their positions (open or closed). The correct arrangement to access the Genji Gloves is: [OPEN] [OPEN] [CLOSED] / [CLOSED] [CLOSED] [OPEN].
  15. 15
    Go west to the next car. Head north and around to find a switch; activate it. Go south, open the hidden chest to find an X-Potion. Continue along the path, opening the chest with the Ice Shield, and activate the third switch.
  16. 16
    Return to the first switch and activate it, then trigger the third switch again. This will open a path on the southern end of the screen. If you made a mistake, ensure switches one and two are down, and switch three is up.
  17. 17
    Go west to find a fourth switch. Nearby are six chests related to the previous puzzle. Arrange them as follows: [ OPEN ] [ OPEN ] [CLOSED] / [CLOSED] [CLOSED] [ OPEN ]. Then, trigger the nearby switch to open another path.
  18. 18
    Go west and exit the car. Continue to find another car with another Save Point. Use it and proceed to the end of the train. Leave the room to continue to the next part of Cyan's dream.
