The Cave of Summon Monsters is an important quests if you want to receive the more powerful summons for Final Fantasy 4.  The same information applies to the FF4 DS version also.  In order to get there, you are required to take the Falcon and go in the Underground World.  To find the location, search for a remote island in the middle left western side of the map.  You should find an entrance.

When in there, you will notice that there is lava.  I myself had managed to get through the cave… struggling, taking damage from walking over the lava… but this is not suggested.  To get around that, take Rosa and haver her cast “Float”.  When completing that next step, you will notice that you can walk over the lava trails without any problems.  It’s also good to use for any enemies (that I recall) that cast earthquake.

Proceed deeper inward the cave and there are about three or four levels that you will go through.  On that final level, you will notice there is a spot to teleport; step on that. You will be transported to the town within the Cave of the Summon Monsters. Before doing anything, go around the town, talk to the townsfolk, get the rat-tail (for another quest), and save your placement. After you save, search for the Library that is west of the twon.  Head inward and you will notice a series of staris.  Go down the stairs.  You will do this twice.  Suddenly, you will be in a room with an old man and woman sitting in charis.  If you saved, you will be fine. Don’t be like me and accept the battle without saving (because you will be pissed going through the cave again).  The first person you will talk to is Queen Asura.

Queen Asura

Queen Asura is not difficult at all.  The key to beating here is casting Wall (Reflect - Nintendo DS Version) on her.  She will attempt to cure herself.  If you cast Wall(Reflect) the cures will bounce and hit you. Keep fighting her until she is defeated, but cast Wall(Reflect) when it wears down.  Beating her will result in Rydia having the ability to summon Queen Leviathan.

King Leviathan

One of the important keys to beating Leviathan is that you enough life to withstand his attacks in the first place (large wave is the killer).  Anyways, if you find yourself constantly dying before having the ability to do anything, go back out and gain several levels.  Once your ready to fight, focus your attacks by using lighting on him. Cast shell on your characters and keep yourself constantly healed.  Beating him will result in Rydia having the ability to summon King Leviathan.
