Somadude plays FFVI ( day 4) Green water = death.

Hey everybody, it's day 4! ( yeah I know it's more like day 7, but I'm doing it now and that's all that matters, kay?)
 
Well today was quite a eventful day in the world of FFVI, lets take a look.
 
- After drifting down the lethe river for a long time ( or a short time ) Sabin finally wake up on the overworld map.
- I then find my way to a nearby cabin and what do I find? well it's only the most awesomest , bestest ninja in the whole world, Shadow!!! whoohoo!!
- Anyway, Sabin asks him if he knows how to get to Narshe. Shadow says the only way is through the city of Doma. But he also tell Sabin that the empire is planing to attack the city, and that there is a small encampment nearby.
- A short walk later and Sabin and Shadow find themselves at the entrance of the imperial camp. And in no time they begin eavesdropping on the soldiers. Turns out that Kefka is also in the camp and is planning to do something behind the general's back. But before they can say what he's going to do, Kefka shows up and tells them to get back to their posts. But, one thing leads to another and the entire camp is heading off to storm Castle Doma. 
- As the camera pans over the castle and it's impending doom, you can clearly see that they have no chance of fighting back... or do they?
- Turns out that there's a guy named Cyan in the castle who is obviously a total guard- wasting machine. He tells them that in order to win you have to take out the their leader. 
- After doing that, and watching the empire retreat, Cyan and the "forces" ( I use that term lightly) of Castle Doma, head back inside to wait for another attack.
- But what  are Sabin and Shadow up too? Well they're doing some more eavesdropping. This time, it's on the general himself, who's name is Leo. 
  Turns out Leo isn't such a bad guy, okay maybe he is, but he seems like a pretty honorable guy too me. You hear Leo talking to one of the guards about not" throwing his life away" and "rushing into things blindly." But he is interrupted by an urgent message from Emperor Gestahl. Then Kefka shows up and Leo tells him to take care of the place while he's gone. Kefka doesn't seem to like Leo, but that's beside the point. After Leo leaves, Kefka asks one of the guards if "the poison" is ready. The guard tells him it;s too risky and that he could harm a lot of innocent people. But Kefka is evil and stuff, so he takkes it anyway. But that doesn't sit well with Sabin, who then confronts Kefka.
- After a couple of short battles and a small chase, Kefka leaves Sabin with the guards and heads off to put the poison to use. I then see what Kefka was planning all along, he was going to poison the city's water supply in hope that it would wipe out every one inside.
- Back at the castle, the poison does the dirty on most of the guards, save for Cyan and some other dude. Cyan then rushes to tell the king before it's too late!
- But it's too late anyway, for both the king and Cyan's family ( ouch. ) This sends Cyan into a rage and he storms out to lay waste to the imperial camp.
- I then regain control of Sabin and help Cyan waste some fools! 
- After the aforementioned " wasting" Sabin suggests getting out of the camp before the entire empire shows up. He sees some nearby mechs and decides that they are the best thing they have. A quick driving lesson and a few laser blasts later, Sabin , Shadow and Cyan make it out of the camp. Before leaving Sabin asks where they should be heading, and Cyan says the only way to get to Narshe is through the forest to the south.. 
 
And that concludes a day 4!
Sorry to leave you on a cliffhanger, but I'm writing this at 3 am and I need my beauty sleep. But before I go...
 
How am I enjoying it so far?
Today showed me that even though you're about 4 hours in, combat can still be a rare thing. And in a game with characters like this, I'm totally cool with lots of story and little bits of combat.
 
Stay tuned for day 5!
