I, KARY, will now show you the force of Fire, and you shall burn in its flames!

Kary

Marilith, also known as Kary or Marilis, is the Fire Fiend from the original Final Fantasy. She appears in the Mount Gulug as a creature with a humanoid head and torso with six arms, each carrying a sword, and a serpentine lower body.

After defeating the fiend of earth, Lich, the party travels by ship to Crescent Lake, in which the famous Circle of Sages spent their time. The leader, Lukahn, gave the warriors of light a Canoe to travel to a volcano near the river, the Gurgu Volcano, where Marilith lived, and had the orb of fire. After travelling to the bottom floor in the volcano, the party finds Marilith, and after a Fiery battle, the warriors of light prevail, and the orb of Fire shines once again.

Battle

Marilith's battle is not as difficult as Lich's, mainly because she isn't stronger in comparison to the Warriors of Light's levels. It is recommended to start the battle with Nulblaze and Protect to be safe from its attacks. If you have the Fire Armor (which can be found in a chest in the dungeon), the battle will be a lot easier. Use your most powerful Blizzard attack, and watch as the mighty Fiend of Fire crumbles to the ground.

Second Battle

To really exterminate the Fiends in the future and prevent them from sending Garland back to the past, the light warriors had to kill the four fiends of the past. In the old Temple of Fiends, the second basement was known as the "Kary Room", and it is full of fiends from the Gurgu Volcano. Before heading down the stairs, the party must actually kill the Marilith from the past. The battle is now harder than before, but if you follow the same strategies here (Nulblaze, Protera, Blizzard), Marilith will kick the bucket in no time.

Ethemology

Kary's name was a mistranslation of the Hindu Goddess of Destruction Kali.
