| - "A mysterious young woman, controlled by the Empire, and born with the gift of magic..." - Final Fantasy 6 In the beginning of Final Fantasy 6, you begin the game fighting for the wrong side, though there is a reason for it. Terra Branford and two Imperial Soldiers lay waste to a town known as Narshe in an effort to steal the city's Esper, and Terra has no choice but to follow orders due to the Slave Crown forced upon her by Kefka, a general in the Imperial Army. Terra's natural talent with magic and the Magitek armor that the trio wears makes the seige a breeze, though the Empire soon learns that stealing Espers in an attempt to draw out their magic power is no cakewalk. The Esper in Narshe vaporizes the two Imperial Soldiers, then turns to Terra. But just when it seems that the Esper is going to blast the holy hell out of the poor girl, his tone changes, almost as if he knows who she is. What the...? Terra wakes up in Narshe a little while later, and a man named Arvis was nice enough to take the Slave Crown off of her while she was asleep. She begins her recovery process very quickly, almost at an inhuman pace, but has no time to rest herself despite knowing full well that she had just been a soldier in the Imperial Army. Arvis tries calming her down, but it's little use. The scene soon shifts to Imperial Soldiers barking at Arvis's door in hopes of capturing Terra again, but she manages to escape to the mines underneath Narshe and eventually escapes the town outright with a little assist from a thief, err.... TREASURE HUNTER named Locke. She spends a good deal of the game being torn. She knows that what she has done to Narshe was wrong and that she was under the effects of the Slave Crown, but she has one hell of a time getting herself on the right path and seems very lost in what she wants to do, almost as if she doesn't know who truly is. Foreshadowing, much? Though Final Fantasy 6 features an ensemble cast and gives a lot of time in developing all of the characters, Terra is the main character of the game and a good deal of the story is centered around her discovering who she truly is. It may seem like Terra finding herself only has to do with getting over past events, but the reality is that there is an entirely different person hidden within her lost past. Locke: Terra looks like she's in pain. Ramuh: Her very existence strikes fear into her own heart.
