In the [[Hero's Grave]] [[sidequest]] for Frog, Cyrus' ghost | In the [[Hero's Grave]] [[sidequest]] for Frog, Cyrus' ghost haunted the [[Northern Ruins]] in the present as an invincible boss. Crono and his party were unable to harm the ghost with either techs or normal attacks. Eventually, Frog recognized the ghost as Cyrus and tried to placate him. Cyrus however, was enraged and the party was forced to flee. Traveling back to [[600 AD]], the team cleared the resident monsters out of the ruins and supplied the local carpenters with tools to repair the damaged structure. With the repair work complete, they re-entered the facility and discovered Cyrus' grave. Cyrus' spirit rose and talked briefly with Frog, who successfully, yet emotionally, comforted his former mentor with the knowledge of Magus' defeat. As Cyrus transcended into the afterlife, the [[Masamune]] experienced a massive power gain, reinstating it as Frog's ultimate weapon in the game. | ||
