Leene's Bell

Chrono Trigger

Leene's Bell is a large, copper bell forged in the year 600 AD in honor of Leene, Queen of Guardia. It is set as the centerpiece of Leene Square shortly thereafter. People whose meeting is heralded by the bell is said to be fated, and has passed into a local legend of the bell's ring being a sign of destiny. Such is the case when Crono meets Marle.

In 1000 AD, as the Millennial Fair came to a close, the King of Guardia revealed a new bell: Nadia's Bell, in honor of his daughter. Depending on the ending, Marle and Crono either float away into the sky on the balloons that had held the bell; or the king is humorously left hanging from the archway, trying to hang the bell in its place while Marle and crew head off into the future to try and save Crono's Mother.

Chrono Cross

Nadia's Bell in Chrono Cross

At the center of the Dead Sea lies the crown jewel of Leene Square -- Nadia's bell, dedicated in 1000 A.D. to eternal peace after Crono returned from defeating Lavos. The structure is contrasted against a frozen sunset that casts a pale gloom of orange on the scene; the actual bell has fallen off its hanging construction and lies on the ground. Miguel waited near the bell, probably because the Frozen Flame of Home World lay behind it. When Serge confronted him, the Ghost Children also appeared, cursing Serge for undoing their efforts to save the world. Eventually, the scene is consumed with the destruction of the Dead Sea.
