Require Barheim Key to return this place.

At where you back from Dalmasca Eastersand, go to North. Turn to West in the section before Gate Crystal, then head to North-West passage. After there, you will reach to the long railway at West known as Zeviah Span, follow the railway to South, on the way you have to push down the broken wagon to unlock the new path. A Save Crystal at South-West area just before the esper fight, continue to West from the Save Crystal will reach to No.7 Terminus, where the Zalera esper is waiting.

Time limit within five minutes, it's no time for you to play the long battle, and some undead enemies will join the battle, it's quite hard if your team is below 40 level. Prepare your Gambit for healing the bad statuses like Blind, Disable and Sleep. Dispel on the esper at beginning, and you can try use Slow as well. He/she will send you some negative status, and beware of the instant kill, prepare Arise or Phoenix Down. Before you clear all undeads around, you can't deal damage to Zalera (but I can still dealing damage to Zalera by using Golden Axe). You can also try the Reflection trick like Exodus Esper battle if you have stronger spells like Collapse/Scathe, but don't use elemental spells. Like serveral special enemies, Zalera can also send Break, Disable and Sleep according to your level, for easier the battle, make sure your characters are not at the level that could be infected by the bad statuses below.

Level 4 Break can only affects on the characters with level multiple of 4,
eg: level 4, 8, 12, 16...
Level 3 Disable can only affects on the characters with level multiple of 3,
eg: level 3, 6, 9, 12...
Level 2 Sleep can only affects on the characters with level multiple of 2,
eg: level 2, 4, 6, 8, 10...

I strongely recommend to have Sage's Ring and White Mask for this Esper, aside from them, you need Ring of Renewal, Bubble Belt and Opal Ring for more advantages.

After Ancient City Of Giruvegan event, back to the Crystal Grande part where only display a \ giant crystal in your map. When you just reach Crystal Grande, you were at teleport VIII, they are several ways to find this esper, I just list down one of them below, or reference this map for some helps:

http://musamune.blogspot.com/2007/11/crystal-grande-upper-layer.html

- From VIII you can see three ways here, one is up, one is down and another one was sealing by Gate Scorpio. Head to the up way and push the switch for Gate Scorpio. Now will start encounter some tough enemies on the way to the Ultima battle.

- Back to VIII and unseal the Gate Scorpio, then cross over it.

- Reach to IX, use it to X.

- From X, following the only way here will reach XX.

- XX platform has two sealing Gate Sagittarius, one way down, two ways up, another way is where you come from.

- From where you come to XX, go to the opposite way which is leads you down, continue until the end and push the switch for Gate Sagittarius, then back to XX within time limit.

- Unseal the Gate Sagittarius 2nd in XX platform, then cross over it.

- Reach to XII, just use it will come to XIV.

- In XIV platform, follow the leading to up way. Next platform push the switch
for Gate Leo, then back to XIV. (time counting)

- From XIV, take the way to down.

- Until third platform the way branch to two, one leads to Gate Leo 2nd, another one is to Excalibur treasure (now you couldn't get it, return here later). Just follow the up way to unseal Gate Leo 2nd.

- Here can see two more ways and a Gate Gemini, take anyone of the ways here will reach XV, take it to XVI.

- In XVI platform, follow the middle way will see the switch for Gate Libra. (take note on your own for here, you will back here later) Push the switch and back to XVI.

- From where you back to XVI, take the right way, it should leads you up.

- Next platform, unseal the Gate Libra 1st and cross that way.

- Now reach to a platform with three ways. From where you come, go to leftern way which also leads up.
- Push the switch for Gate Capricorn, return to XVI. (time counting)

- In XVI, take the only going down way will see Gate Capricorn 1st, pass itcome to switch for Gate Virgo, here is also a sealing Gate Aquarius.

- Push the switch for Gate Virgo (time counting) then return to XVI.

- In XVI, head to the middle way which leads to Libra switch.

- From Libra switch, follow the down way will see two sealing gate in next platform. Just unseal the Gate Virgo 2nd.

- Next section, from where you come, go to the right way which leads to up.

- Use XVII will reach XVIII.

- In XVIII platform, follow the only way here will see a Save Crystal in next section.

- Save Crystal section, here got three more ways. From where you come, left way goes to the switch for Gate Aquarius, right way leads to teleport XIX which warp back to XX, follow to the middle will battle against Ultima.

Phew, finally...

The esper has a bit more than 250,000 HP, defeat this esper will gain 65 LP. She will cast Holyja after 12 attacks, the 12 attacks including normal attack and Destrustion (named Redemption for US version). Like other Espers, her most powerful elemental move, Holyja could heavily damage all characters by using Holy elemental. Equip White Mask or Sage's Ring to absorb the Holyja, needless to say, don't use Holy spell because it can heal the esper. As for her special move, Destrustion/Redemption can deal large damage on one character, however, Ultima won't use the Destrustion/Redemption to the character who has equiped the White Mask or Sage's Ring since these equipments absorb Holy. You can lure Ultima to use Destrustion/Redemption by unequiping White Mask or Sage's Ring, pay attention on the information message on the top left screen, once Ultima has targetted on the character with Destrustion/Redemption, equip White Mask or Sage's Ring to absorb it. Do remember you can always change you equipments, this trick goes for Holyja as well, if Sage's Ring and White Mask are not your best equipments, you can just equip them only when the Holyja is ready, change back the equipments that you like after Holyja.

I know it's an annoying way on changing equipment in the battle, but sometimes you do have to do that for certain status. As later Ultima cast Reflect on to all characters, now make sure you don't stupidly heal your team with Curaja or other healing spells before your healer has equiped Opal Ring. And be sure you don't heal your ally when the Reverse status is sent from the Holyja.

When Ultima HP down to around 70%, you will get HP decrease, MP decrease, then following with battle commands will be sealing one after one.
Here is the arrangement:
-HP decrease-> MP->decrease-> Attack-> Magic-> Skill-> Item-> Magnet-> *repeat

When Ultima HP down to 50%, she will use Holyja after each 7 attacks instead of 12 attacks at the beginning. So you might have to speed up your equipments changing, and Ring of Renewal is recommended during the Magic seal period. Again, just to remind, always equip White Mask or Sage's Ring to absorb the Holyja and Destrustion/Redemption.
