Mario in the Factory.
The Factory (also known as Smithy Factory) is the gloomy dimension where Smithy and his cohorts resided in Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. The entire factory is filled with Smithy's Machine Made weapons and the assembly lines that carry them. The factory's design greatly resembles the Airships of Super Mario Bros. 3, including the Bolt Lifts sometimes utilized to reach far platforms and the fog that fills the air. Mario, Mallow, Geno, Bowser, and Princess Toadstool fought many hard battles and endured countless perils during this last leg of their journey.
Smithy's Factory also refers to World 7 of the game. This region includes the Factory dimension as well as the gateway to Mario's dimension, in this case, the Smithy Gang-occupied Bowser's Keep and Vista Hill.
[edit] Underground Interior
After defeating a Machine Made Yaridovich, a Brick Block explodes to open a passage deeper underground. This leads Mario and company directly to a boss battle against Cloaker and Domino and their pet snakes, (either Mad Adder or Earth Link, depending on which of the bosses is left standing).
The inner part of the factory is seemingly made of all steel. To the right, in each room, Mario can witness the process of a Jabit being manufactured. Also, various factory workers in charge of each department try and fight Mario and attempt to prevent him from reaching Smithy.
