In ''Final Fantasy'', the Four Fiends are [[Tiamat|Tiamat of Wind]], [[Kraken|Kraken of Water]], [[Lich|Lich of Earth]], and [[Marilyn|Marilyn of Fire]], all of whom were under the control of [[Garland]]. He sought control over the [[Crystal]]s because each one's element would grant him the ability to rule the entire world during both the past and present. When the [[Warriors of Light]] defeated Garland, the Four Fiends sent him 2,000 years into the past. The Four Fiends would travel into the present and drain each crystal's power to send to Garland in the past. This way, an indefinite time loop would be created that would allow Garland to live forever. | In ''Final Fantasy'', the Four Fiends are [[Tiamat|Tiamat of Wind]], [[Kraken|Kraken of Water]], [[Lich|Lich of Earth]], and [[Marilyn|Marilyn of Fire]], all of whom were under the control of [[Garland]].

The Warriors of Light managed to defeat the Four Fiends in the present, but not before they sent their power to Garland in the past. By harnessing the crystals' power, Garland became a powerful, evil being named [[Chaos]]. The Warriors of Light traveled into [[Chaos Shrine]] during the past, in which they would fight the Four Fiends once more. Once all four were defeated, the warriors proceeded to fight Chaos. After defeating him as well, the time loop broke, and peace was restored to the world. | The Warriors of Light managed to defeat the Four Fiends in the present, but not before they sent their power to Garland in the past.
