After meeting and repairing Robo, Crono and his friends begin to travel through time, assisted by [[Gaspar]], an old sage at the End of Time, to collect more allies, items, and information to face Lavos. Their party expands to include Ayla and Frog. They come to learn that Lavos was an alien being that impacted the planet millions of years in the past, and began to absorb DNA and energy from every creature on it, eventually having enough power to arise and raze the planet's surface in 1999 AD. However, Lavos' presence had been discovered by [[Queen Zeal]] in 12,000 BC. The Queen believed she could summon Lavos and harness its power to achieve immortality, and caused the Queen's son, Janus, and the three Gurus, Gaspar, [[Melchior]], and [[Balthasar]], to be spread throughout time, preventing them from collaborating and stopping Lavos's return. | After meeting and repairing Robo, Crono and his friends begin to travel through time, assisted by [[Gaspar]], an old sage at the End of Time, to collect more allies, items, and information to face Lavos.

Janus vowed to learn how to summon the beast himself so that he could destroy it. He took the alias of Magus, and gained a cult of followers, believing that he sought the summoning of Lavos in order to take over the planet himself. The party initially mistakes Magus as the cause of Lavos but come to learn of his troubled past. They travel to 12,000 BC, and storm the [[Ocean Palace]] to prevent the Queen from summoning the being in the first place. However, they are ill-prepared for their assault and as Lavos attempts to kill them all, Crono sacrifices himself to protect everyone. Magus fails to defeat Lavos, and the creature's power causes a tsunami that destroys Zeal and covers most of the world in water. The Ocean Palace then rises into the air, becoming the [[Black Omen]], which, if not destroyed, exists in all future time periods. The group turns to Gaspar for help, and he gives them a device, called a "[[Chrono Trigger (item)|Chrono Trigger]]", that is able to replace Crono just before the moment of death with a doppelganger. The group collects the necessary components for the process, and travel to 2300 AD, where on top of [[Death Peak|"Death Peak"]] they activate the [[Chrono Trigger (item)|Chrono Trigger]], which takes them back to the moment in time just before Chrono is killed, swapping him for a doll that resembles him to absorb the attack, saving his life. After gaining enough power, Crono and the others assault Lavos and are able to defeat it, thus saving the future of their world. | Janus vowed to learn how to summon the beast himself so that he could destroy it.

If Magus joined the party, he departs to search for his missing sister, Schala. Crono's mother accidentally enters the time gate at the fair before it closes, prompting Crono, Marle, and Lucca to set out in the Epoch to find her while fireworks light up the night sky. Alternatively, if the party used the Epoch to break Lavos's outer shell, Marle will help her father hang [[Nadia's Bell]] at the festival and accidentally get carried away by several balloons. Crono jumps on to help her, but cannot bring them down to earth. Hanging on in each others arms, the pair travel through the cloudy, moonlit sky. | If Magus joined the party, he departs to search for his missing sister, Schala.
