Crono and the others return to 1000 AD, where Crono learns that his stay of execution has been canceled. He goes to [[Guardia Castle]] to meet with the king, and [[Marle]] pleads on his behalf. However, the king has been made aware of their quest thanks to [[Lucca]]. They are then met by a group of people from across time - [[Kino]], [[King Guardia XXI]], and [[Doan]] - revealing themselves to be Marle's ancestors and descendants. | Crono and the others return to 1000 AD, where Crono learns that his stay of execution has been canceled.

Afterward, everyone attends the Moonlight Parade on the last night of the [[Millennial Fair]]. Crono and Marle can move around and visit with people in [[Leene Square]].

If you use the Epoch to destroy Lavos' shell, the closing of the Gates means that there is no way to travel through time any longer. Crono and Marle return to the square to see the King hanging up Nadia's Bell. Crono and Marle help him, but get stuck holding the balloons that were transporting the bell. With Crono hanging onto the balloons and Marle in his arms, they float off into the night sky as the credits roll. | If you use the Epoch to destroy Lavos' shell, the closing of the Gates means that there is no way to travel through time any longer.

At the last second, however, Crono's cat comes running around the corner, chased by [[Crono's Mother]]. She dives into the Gate after the cat, which promptly shuts behind them. Without a moment to lose, Crono runs off to board the Epoch to chase after her. | ||

This also applies to the ending. If you did not save her legs (or never completed that side quest), Lara will sit quietly by the fountain, her husband, [[Taban]], trying to cheer her up. If you did save her, she is up and about, begging the now-exhausted Taban to dance with her. | ||

Magus joins the group for the rest of the adventure, leaving at the end to search for his sister. However, if you choose to fight Magus in a one-on-one battle and defeat him, Magus' spell that transformed him into a half-human / half-[[fiend]] will wear off, but not until the end of the game. | ||
After defeating Lavos, Magus' magic wears off, and Frog turns back into [[Glenn]], who is a tall, muscular man. This is because he aged ten years while in his fiendish form. He bids farewell to the others, preparing to return to the [[Middle Ages]]. Lucca and Marle use the opportunity to remark on how handsome Glenn truly is, wishing that he could stay around longer. | |||

This ending is much like the first, except that Crono is absent. When the group returns to the [[End of Time]], Gaspar tells them they must return to their own times, as Lavos' destruction means that the Gates will soon shut down. They leave quickly, too quickly in that Gaspar does not have the opportunity to tell them about the [[Chrono Trigger (Item)|egg-like item]] he wished to show them | This ending is much like the first, except that Crono is absent.

The rest of the ending proceeds like the first. Most of the variations still apply. At the end, Marle realizes that there must be some way to save Crono from his death at the hands of Lavos. Depending on whether or not the Epoch has been destroyed, she uses either the Gate or Epoch to go after him. | |||

This ending features [[Lucca]] and [[Marle]] reviewing the various male characters in the game, saying what they really think about them. This is where you will see Crono say his only two lines of dialogue in the game. | This ending features [[Lucca]] and [[Marle]] reviewing the various male characters in the game, saying what they really think about them.

This ending is a preview of {{CC}}. The Dream Devourer is actually Lavos after having absorbed [[Schala]]. In the fight, [[Magus]] will appear, but the Dream Devourer will brush him aside. Schala will come to her senses, telling him that he will need something [[Chrono Cross (Item)|more than might]] to defeat it. Schala opens a portal in space-time, flinging Magus through (presumably to 1020 AD) and wiping his memory. | This ending is a preview of {{CC}}.
