===The Kingdom in the Sky=== | |||
*Crono and his compatriots exit the [[Gate]] from [[Prehistory]], created in the wake of [[Lavos]], to find the world covered in ice. | |||
*They discover a sky bridge that takes them to the [[Kingdom of Zeal]], a magical realm above the clouds. There, they discover a highly-advanced civilization of human beings who are able to use magic. The people of this land are excited for the construction of the [[Ocean Palace]] and the [[Mammon Machine]], which will be used as a new source of power. | |||
*The [[Prophet]], an adviser to [[Queen Zeal]], discovers the group and declares that they are a threat. The queen orders them imprisoned. | |||
*Princess [[Schala]] goes to rescue Crono and his friends, in defiance of her mother. The Prophet discovers this, and forces them to return through the Gate. | |||
*As Crono and the others are forced through the Gate, they overhear that the [[Guru of Life]] has been imprisoned in a place called the [[Mountain of Woe]]. The Prophet forces them through the Gate and makes Schala place a barrier around it, preventing their return. | |||
*Crono and the others return to [[Prehistory]]. | |||
===On the Wings of Time=== | |||
*The group, aboard the [[Epoch]], return to [[Antiquity]]. | |||
*They meet with the land-bound humans of the era, the Earthbound Ones, who are unable to use magic. | |||
*They climb the Mountain of Woe and rescue [[Melchior]], the Guru of Life, from the magical beast that dwells there. They then return to the Earthbound Village, where Schala meets them. | |||
*She tells them that Queen Zeal intends to use the Ocean Palace and the Mammon Machine to draw power directly from [[Lavos]]. | |||
*[[Dalton]], a member of the royal court, appears and kidnaps Schala, taking her to the Ocean Palace. | |||
*Crono and his friends return to Zeal, armed with the [[Ruby Knife]], a magical blade forged by Melchior that can destroy the Mammon Machine. In the throne room of the palace, they fight with Dalton, who flees at their onslaught, revealing a portal that takes them to the Ocean Palace. | |||
*They fight their way through the mystical creatures and technology that guards the palace, until they reach the inner sanctum. | |||
*Queen Zeal forces Schala to activate the Mammon Machine. She uses its power to create a space-time rift to banish the three Gurus from Zeal. Unfortunately, her son, [[Janus]], is lost as well. The Prophet steps forward, revealing himself to be [[Magus]], waiting for this moment. | |||
*The power of the Mammon Machine causes a premature awakening of Lavos, who attacks them. Magus tries to stop it, but cannot. Crono steps in front of his friends, saving their lives before being utterly annihilated by Lavos' attack. | |||
**TIMELINE ERROR - Using the [[Chrono Trigger (Item)|Chrono Trigger]], Marle and the others arrive at the exact instant that Crono is killed by Lavos. Using the doll they got from Norstein Bekkler, they exchange it for Crono, removing him from the timeline and effectively returning him to life. As its power fades, they return to the End of Time. | |||
*Lavos spews his flaming quills into the air, blowing the Kingdom of Zeal out of the sky and sending it to the Earth. The resulting impact creates a massive tidal wave that buries most of the land beneath the sea. | |||
*The group awakens in the last human village, where the last surviving Enlightened Ones and Earthbound Ones have taken shelter. It seems that the Epoch followed them there as well. | |||
*Dalton reappears, naming himself the new king. He takes possession of the Epoch and makes prisoners of the heroes, imprisoning them aboard his flying fortress, the Blackbird. | |||
*The group escapes from the Blackbird's prison and reclaims the Epoch, which Dalton modified into a flying chariot. In a rush to understand the new controls, they accidentally activate a newly-added weapon system and blow the Blackbird out of the sky with a laser. In the ensuing battle, Dalton is sent through a Gate. | |||
*They meet Magus on the surface. He gives Frog the opportunity to avenge Cyrus. If Frog bests him, his curse is lifted. Frog decides to allow Magus to live, as killing him will not bring Cyrus back. Magus reveals that there is a way to bring Crono back to life. | |||
*The Ocean Palace rises from the sea, transformed into the [[Black Omen (Location)|Black Omen]]. Using the Epoch, the group flies up to it to face Queen Zeal once and for all. | |||
*They return to the [[End of Time]] to discover the way they may save Crono. | |||
