Presidential Palace

This location is not accessible on disc 4
After Laguna's flashback in Esthar, Squall and the party will be brought here. The Presidential Palace is one of several Locations that make up the city of Esthar. Head right to find the rest of the city.

If the Queen of Cards comes to Esthar, she will stay here. She'll usually head for the Lunar Gate next, otherwise Trabia (Shumi Village), Dollet, or Fishermans Horizon. If you gave her the Doomtrain Card, the Presidential Aide in blue and white (inside the waiting room) will have the newly created Phoenix Card.
