Flavor Text

Cast by, of all things, a phantom train, this purifying light burns away restless spirits and consumes tainted souls. In Garlemald, where travel by machina is commonplace, the tale is told of a spectral locomotive whose passengers are the spirits of the dead...

Tips

Acquisition Tips

This attack targets a different number of people throughout the fight with a marker and creates a large spotlight shining on the ground, exploding into light. The attack is guaranteed to happen early in the fight, so nothing needs to be done to make it be cast.
It's important to not get kidnapped by the ghosts when the Phantom Train is killed. If you are taken away by the ghost when the train dies, you will not acquire the ability.
