Forgotten Continent

The Forgotten Continent is the westernmost of the four main continents on the world map of Gaia in Final Fantasy IX. All of its major destinations, such as Oeilvert, Ipsen's Castle, and the Wind Shrine, are inaccessible unless the player has arrived on the continent by air, as tall cliffs around the continent's perimeter prevent any beach landings. Depending on the player's position on the continent, the different angles and intensity of sunlight give the impression of twilight.
