*[[#Chronopolis Under Siege|<<(C,M,L,R)]] Robo and the others make their way down into the ruins of the {{CE|Ocean Palace}}, trying to find the source of the magical beasts that had attacked Chronopolis. | |||
*Proceeding to the power room, they come upon the ruins of the [[Mammon Machine]], with the [[Masamune]] still plugged in. There, sitting on top of the machine, is none other than {{CE|Schala}}. As they rush to her aid, a {{CE|King Zeal|mysterious figure}} appears and blocks their way. | |||
*In stasis, Magus senses a great magical power. Focusing his energies, he breaks out of the stasis chamber and proceeds to the ruins. | |||
*Magus appears just in time. He orders Robo and the rest to get his sister and leave. The figure pulls the sword from the Mammon Machine and he and Magus do battle. Magus' magical power is weakened after his battle with Dalton, and the other's sheer might is too much for him. Added to the fact that the mystery man had the Masamune which could weaken Magus, he did not stand a chance. Before the final blow can be struck, the mystery figure seems to figure out who Magus is, permitting him to survive. Magus finds one of the team waiting for him, and they return to Chronopolis through the gate. [[#Sibling Reunion|(C,M,L,R,J)>>]] | |||

=Alternate Timeline= | |||
This timeline was created following the incursion in 11,995 BC when {{CE|King Zeal}} removed the {{CE|Masamune}} from the [[Mammon Machine]]. | |||
==Between 600 AD and 605 AD (Alternate)== | |||
*600 AD - Magus is defeated. | |||
*{{CE|Glenn}} establishes the {{CE|Vanguard}} to guard against any further Fiend incursion onto Guardian territory. He makes it a point to transform the knights of old into a modern, mobile fighting force. | |||
*603 AD - The mystic named {{CE|Kasmir}} revitalizes the Fiends' morale and takes his place as Fiendlord. | |||
==605 AD - The Alternate Middle Ages== | |||
*TEMPORAL INCURSION - {{CE|Glenn}} becomes aware of the re-shifting of the timeline when he finds the Fiend War still going on, and no one having any memory of Magus' defeat at his hands or of the sword - the Masamune - he carries. He is especially horrified that no one has any memory of [[Cyrus]], who was once the kingdom's greatest hero. | |||

*Down in the infirmary, Magus comes face to face with his sister for the first time in years. Belthasar is astounded that she is even there, as she seems to be resurrected from time itself. Schala recognizes Magus as the Prophet, but then looks deep into his aura to see that he is actually Janus. | |||
*They start talking, helping Schala to remember what happened to their mother. Schala them realizes who the mysterious wizard was. Before she can reveal who he is, Magus asks the rest to leave them. | |||
*Belthasar, Melchior, and the team get down to discussing what just happened. Schala told Belthasar that the Masamune had been removed from the Mammon Machine. Belthasar asks if the Masamune played any critical role in history. | |||
*They state that the Masamune was critical to defeating the Fiendlord in 600 AD, which ended the Fiend War. | |||
*Belthasar tells them that, according to history, the Fiend War did not end until 650 AD. The sheer act of removing the Masamune from the ruins of the Ocean Palace had caused a major temporal incursion, reshifting the entire timeline! | |||
