==How to Enter The Bend of Time==
==How to Enter The Bend of Time==
[[File:Bend of Time Location.png|thumbnail|right|The Bend of Time is located on the small island in the middle of this image, sandwiched between the main continent of El Nido to the northwest and the island containing Marbule to the southeast.]]

The Bend of Time can first be accessed once the [[Porre]] boat has been acquired from [[Termina]] in [[Home World]], but it is somewhat hidden as it is located on a small, unmarked island between the main human-populated [[El Nido]] island and [[Marbule]]. To enter, simply press the confirm button while near this island, and the party should enter automatically (it may require some trial and error and mashing the button). Once the island has been entered once, the island will be marked with a "Bend of Time" title on the map once the party approaches this island, much like every other important location on the world map. The Bend of Time can be accessed in the same manner in either Home or [[Another World]].

==Using the Bend of Time==
==Using the Bend of Time==
From a gameplay perspective, the Bend of Time is most notable for being a good area to capture monsters for use in [[Sprigg]]'s [[Doppelgang]] and the [[Grand Slam]] tournament. Some of the monsters here aren't available to capture anywhere else, due to the fact that they are encountered before Sprigg joins the party, and cease to show up by the time Sprigg does join. For example, this applies to many of the enemies found in [[Viper Manor (Chrono Cross)|Viper Manor]] ([[Another World]]), such as the [[Portalgheist]]. Unfortunately, there are eight capturable Doppelgang enemies which do not appear in the Bend of Time - they are listed in their own separate section of the article.

To fight monsters in the Bend of Time, simply step on the [[Gate]] you wish to use and a sound resembling a ringing bell should be heard. Stand still once this happens and press the confirm button (the process is similar to when using a [[Save Point]]). Once the battle has been won (or fled from), simply press the confirm button again to fight more enemies if you wish; if you're done fighting enemies, simply move off of the gate.
