HCBailly plays Terranigma - Part 73 of 75


This is it. There's no turning back now.

From here, leave Airsrock and head to South America. Remember where the hole we entered the world from was? Well, we're going to have to go back there. When you re-enter this area, you'll find a huge hole that wasn't there before as well as Columbus. If you talk to Columbus, he'll tell you he never forgot how you rescued him at Sylvain Castle, and that he has explored the world since and seen the world change so much that his navigation techniques seem primitive now. He is now convinced you are the legendary hero, and that it is prophesied that the hero will disappear underground.

When Columbus asks if you're going, say yes. He'll recommend you save at the nearby book and ink well first, and that once you go into the hole, you may never be able to return to the light world.

Once you enter the hole, it's just a short trip back to Crysta on the overworld map. If you talk to anybody in the town, they will turn into souls and attack you, saying if you had never found out, you would have been happy.

Once you trigger the red hue and the impending doom music, head to the Elder's house and see the Elder. He will thank you for resurrecting the world but tells you that you have learned more than you should know. He asks you to follow him so he can show you something.

Leave the Elder's house. The Elder will tell you to look at the sky. He will tell you that everyone in Crysta are replicas made from Crystal Blue, and float to the sky like Crystal Blue when used up. The Elder goes into a brief monologue involving duality before telling you that your duty is now finished. He then says it is now time to head towards the Gaia Stone.

You'll be teleported to a very strange place with very strange faces similar to those on the underworld tower doors. Keep running north and don't stop. You'll find out you are inside the sun in the underworld, and that the infinite corridor is the history of living things. You'll be told the planet was doomed with an unfortunate fate since the very start. The voice then states it will fight like you, with real form.

You'll be teleported to another room, where you'll meet Dark Gaia. This is the final boss.

Get to the far left at the start of the battle, and run around when you see the "Gaia's rage!" message. When he launches an orb of light, face Dark Gaia and keep using the rapid stab to reflect it back and attack him. Then, avoid the upper body when it travels towards you in the shape of a spiky ball, and go to the bottom of the screen and hit it with a dashing attack when it stops flashing.

You'll then be teleported to another screen when you beat this first form.

For Dark Gaia's second form, stay at the very bottom of the screen so Dark Gaia doesn't back away. Avoid the arrows, and when Dark Gaia approaches the north end of the platform, attack the mouth in the middle with your regular stab repeatedly. To avoid the laser, dash through it. Also, do not get hit by any of the crescents, especially the blue ones as they will freeze you.

There is a Sonic Boom attack that Dark Gaia can do, but it can easily be dodged by dashing to the far right or far left. You can jump over it, but going all the way to the side with the dash attack is better.

When the mouth in the middle unleashes a white light that covers the entire platform, block it. Otherwise, you will be absolutely annihilated.

Once you've done enough damage to Dark Gaia this time, you've done it! You've won!
