Gestahl and Kefka entered the sealed gate and discovered the Warring Triad, the petrified remains of the gods of magic. Setzer and the party become separated during the Blackjack's destruction. Setzer told Terra the Empire had found 'some statues', horrifying the Thamasan resident Strago. They were too late to stop Kefka from massacring the espers, and the reunited party grouped on the airship. The Returners fled on the repaired Blackjack before the Empire could move against them, and flew to Thamasa. Meanwhile in Vector, Edgar seduced one of the Empire's serving girls who warned him the expedition was a trap to lure the espers out.

Setzer returned to the Blackjack to begin repairs, aided by Professor Cid of the Empire, though Setzer refused his offers to improve the ship's performance by gutting the casino and streamlining the design. Terra and Locke agreed to accompany an Imperial expedition to Thamasa to locate the espers. The Returners returned to Vector by foot and met with Emperor Gestahl, who had been frightened by the espers' show of power and called a truce. The Blackjack was damaged in the battle and crash-landed near Maranda. The Returners boarded the Blackjack and followed to investigate, and found the city under attack by the espers. At the gate several espers rushed out and flew to Vector. A plan had been formed to attack the Empire but they lacked manpower, and Banon asked them to go to the Cave to the Sealed Gate to the esper world and ask the espers for help. Locke saves Sezter as the espers rampage towards Vector.Īfter meeting with Terra in Zozo, the group returned to Narshe and spoke to the leader of the Returners, Banon. Locke asked Setzer to take them to Zozo to see Terra, filling him in on Terra and the espers. Kefka deployed two cranes to attack the Blackjack, but Setzer and the Returners fought them off and made their getaway. He met with the group and asked why Celes was not with them, but put off explanations until they escaped. As they fled the Magitek Research Facility, Setzer had grown worried about them and brought the Blackjack to Vector. Setzer landed the Blackjack near Albrook and the Returners set out from there, Setzer prepared to lift off on short notice should they need a hasty escape. Setzer and the Returners battle the two cranes above Vector. Amused by the trick, he tossed the coin back to Celes and agreed to uphold his end of the bargain anyway. It came up heads, but Setzer examined the coin and found it was a two-headed coin. Setzer agreed and Celes flipped the coin. Celes made a counter-offer to leave the decision to a coin flip-if it was heads he would help them regardless, but if it was tails she would marry him. He offered Celes a deal that he would help them if she married him. The Returners asked for Setzer's help fighting the Empire, but he was more interested in Celes, whom he decided he preferred to Maria. Within the airship's interior, Celes dropped a rope down to let the Returners come aboard, and when Setzer found them he realized he had been duped. Setzer agrees to aid the party after being tricked by Celes and Edgar. Despite an attempt to sabotage the opera by the octopus Ultros, the Returners' plan succeeded and Setzer took Celes aboard the Blackjack. The Returners hatched a plan to have Celes take Maria's place in the opera and allow Setzer to abduct her, and she could then sneak them onto his airship. It so happened that one of the Returners, Celes, bore an uncanny resemblance to Maria. At this time the Returners were seeking a way to reach the southern continent and infiltrate the Empire, and met the Impresario in Jidoor and read Setzer's letter. He sent a letter to the Impresario of the Opera House warning him he would come. Setzer became infatuated with the opera star Maria and decided to abduct her and make her marry him.

Setzer kidnaps Celes during the opera's finale. Setzer restored the Falcon and sealed it beneath Darill's Tomb. Darill never returned, and the wreck of the Falcon was found a year later. Setzer told her to be back by sunset and meet him on ' hill'. Darill won the race and declared she would fly beyond the clouds and see the stars closer than anyone had before. She wanted Setzer to have the Falcon should something happen to her, but Setzer laughed he would win it from her in a race instead. They competed over having the fastest ship, which caused Darill to push the Falcon to the limits of its performance. An unknown time before the start of Final Fantasy VI, Setzer was in a relationship with a woman named Darill, owner of the airship Falcon.
