Once we made it back to earth a huge robot is heading towards the nearby town - probably not to help build stuff.

Fortunately a bunch of my buddies came to help fight back the robot. After a bunch of fighting Cid could fly us inside the head of the robot.

Inside we fight a bunch of things, including this thing. As soon as he's defeated he allows us to summon him during combat, which is super nice.

Eventually we reach the control room.

Robot go boom.

Fact about Final Fantasy: the apparent bad guy is always related to you somehow, and is usually controlled by some higher entity.

Yeah.

At least Cain is normal again, and helps us out of the robot.
Ok so the plan was that I'd finish up FF4 by the time I went on vacation, so that I could start off fresh with FF5. Even after some serious marathon sessions I only made it within about an hour of the end, so I'll have to wrap it up when I go back home in August. I even brought the save games here, but apparently they won't load.
