After the King tricks him into bombing the village of [[Mist (Final Fantasy IV location)|Mist]], Cecil openly rebels and forms an alliance of warriors to oppose Baron. His first recruit is Rydia, a child he rescues from Mist. During his quest, he becomes a Paladin by climbing [[Mt. Ordeals]] and overcoming the darkness in his heart. This represents one of the game's themes; "brute strength alone isn't power," as when he becomes a Paladin, Cecil's power actually decreases, although he gradually becomes more powerful than he ever was as a Dark Knight. Cecil reaches Baron and learns that the new leader of the Red Wings is a man named Golbez, and that [[Golbez]]'s minion, [[Cagnazzo]], had killed and impersonated the king. With his companions, Cecil is able to defeat Cagnazzo but Golbez continues to hunt for the [[Crystal]]s and Cecil must continue his quest. He ultimately learns that he is the son of a [[Lunarian]], [[Kluya]], and that Golbez is his brother. Golbez himself is not evil, but is being controlled by [[Zemus]], a Lunarian who wants to wipe out all life on the Blue Planet. Although Cecil initially cannot accept that Golbez is innocent, he later forgives him, acknowledging him as his brother after Zemus' defeat. Cecil then returns to Baron, marries with Rosa, and becomes the new King of Baron. | After the King tricks him into bombing the village of [[Mist (Final Fantasy IV location)|Mist]], Cecil openly rebels and forms an alliance of warriors to oppose Baron.
