FFVIII - Walkthrough - 1.11 Deling City

Items Timber Maniacs
Magic Thundara - draw point located on the street left from Caraway's Mansion

Here is some miscellaneous information about Deling City:

1. Deling Fountain The first area where Laguna and his party park their vehicles. There are two bus attendents around this area.
2. Park Lane The area where you will find the attendent in front of the General's Mansion. The Left path leads to the clock tower of Galbadia. There you will find another Draw Point.
3. Parade Area Basically a busy street. This road is infested with vehicles and there are a huge groups of people. On the right, you will find the weapon shop (yellow signboard) and the item shop (orange signboard).
4. Arch of Triumph The most dominant figure is that of the huge brown tower (like the Arc de Triumph in Paris). There is a 4-way junction which leads to other parts of the town.
5. In front of the President's Mansion You will find 2 bus attendants here and south is the President's mansion. There is a huge compound area, where the General will brief you about your mansion.
6. Galbadia Hotel Street Head northeast and cross the flags and you will end up at this street. Inside the Hotel, there is a Save Point. Hotel fee: 100 gil a night.
7. General Caraway's Mansion On the mansion's porch there is a Save Point. To get there, just head east of the Park Lane. You must get the three digit password, found on the Gunblade in the Tomb of the Unknown King, and he will lead you into the mansion grounds.

You will now have reached the major city of Galbadia, Deling City, obviously named after the dictator President Deling. You're searching for General Caraway's mansion.

There is a card player in the middle of the platform. Head down the esculator and you will see the square where Laguna previously parked his car in the flashback. The city has a well organised transport system, comprimising of busses. Head towards the bus attendant who will tell you to wait for the Bus to the General's mansion. Now talk and pick the first option ('yes') to board the bus. In the next screen, press X to get off of the bus.

Talk to the guard who is on the path to the mansion (on the far right) and he will ask for a three digit number, which can only be found at the 'Tomb of the Unknown King' located north-east from here. Only then you will be able to access the General's mansion. Talk to the guard again and pick the fourth option ('Be lead to the city limits').

screenshot You will find yourself at the edge of Deling City, next to a Rent-A-Car station. I suggest that you rent a car if you have sufficient gil, otherwise you may as well build up your levels, as the Tomb is quite long way from the town.

Exit the town to the left, either by foot or in a rented car, and you will be back at the World Map. Head northeast along a stretch of land and you find the Tomb which the guard has told you to go to.
