The story takes off after you wake up as Terra Branford, a young woman who has lost her memory. Terra wakes to see Arvis (Jun in the Japanese version), a old kind man who helps her, and then is sent off by herself through the tunnels of Narshe's caves. Whilst running away fromt he guards of Narshe, she falls through the cave floor and hits her head. Upon waking up, she meets Locke Cole, a treasure hunter more commonly known as a thief. After traveling with Locke through the fields of Narshe, she is taken to a kingdom in a desert called "Figaro". In Figaro they meet a young man known as Edgar Roni Figaro, who is the king of Figaro. Ahortly after meeting the king, Terra is hidden by Locke because Kefka Palazzo appears at Figaro, searching for his toy, Terra, who he explains that she is a runaway.

After telling Kefka he heard of no such girl in his castle, Edgar begins a talk wtih Locke and Terra. Once Kefka returns and attacks the castle, Edgar and co. leaves the castle and begins a travel through the mountains. Once there, they encounter a man named Vargas and starts a battle, but a young man named Sabin Rene Figaro jumps in to help you. He joins your team and helps you to get to the Returner's Hideout.
