==============================================================================

Back in 1995 Squaresoft made what some hail to be the greatest RPG of all 
time, Chrono Trigger. The game deals with travel between time from the past to 
present, and even the future. You play as Crono, a young man that's traveling 
through time to save his friends, and more importantly, the world. If you love 
RPG's and are ready to experience a unique game that surpasses most others, 
then be sure to give this classic a go!

                                  Techs
                                  -----

Techs, or techniques, are special attacks or magic a character uses in battle 
to cause lots of damage. Each character starts out with one, but more can be 
gained. To gain more Techs you will need to fight many Battles. At the end of 
most Battles, you will receive a set amount of Tech Points. Once that amount 
reaches the specified number in your menu, (check the Tech section in your 
menu to find how many Tech Points are needed) you will obtain another Tech for 
that character. 

You also may notice that in the beginning of the game, you can only gain two 
Techs with a character and no more. Why you ask? Well, I don't want to spoil 
anything for you yet, but you will eventually meet a character in the game who 
gives every character a special element (see Characters and Techs section for 
more information). With the new element you can begin learning ALL your Techs.

Once each character has a specific Tech skill learned, you may begin to 
perform Dual Techs with those characters. Dual Techs are when two characters 
combine their Tech skills, to use an even stronger move. There are also Triple 
Techs, in which THREE characters use their moves to dish out a devastating 
attack. For more information on Tech names and descriptions, check the 
Characters and Techs section.

                              Status Effects
                              --------------

Status Effects are harmful effects enemies can use on you during battle. These 
effects may hinder your performance by letting you not use techs/magic, or 
decreasing your hit rate. To cure these harmful effects, you will need to use 
either a certain type of item or tech. Here is a quick list of the effects and 
what they do.

Blind:  Character is blinded and their hit percentage goes down
Chaos:  Your character will become confused attacking random enemies or allies
Lock:   Prevents you from using techs/magic
Poison: Causes your HP to gradually decrease
Sleep:  Causes your character to fall asleep preventing you from attacking
Slow:   Decreases your speed making time in between attacks longer
Stop:   Cannot move or use items

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                               Menu Screens
                               ------------

By pressing the X button during the game, you will see a Menu appear on the 
screen. From there, you can move left or right to select an option of your 
choice. To see what each one does, refer to the list below.

Character Status / Equipment - This is the very first option, which is located
                               on the very left. Here, you can equip your
                               characters and check their stats.

Item                         - To the right of the first option, is the second 
                               option; items. In this part of the menu, you 
                               will be able to scroll through the items you 
                               have, or use any items you want. (Note: Item
                               must be highlighted in yellow for use in menu)

Tech                         - Here, you will be able to view all of the techs
                               you have learned. Also, by scrolling right at 
                               top, you can view the Double and Triple techs
                               you have gained.

Configuration                - In this option, you can change various things
                               to your preference, such as Message Speed, 
                               Window Color, etc.

Order / Exchange             - You can change the order of your party here. 
                               The character on top is the one that will 
                               appear as walking while playing.

Saving                       - Probably one of the most important options.
                               Here, you can save your data, but only if your
                               at a save point, or on the World Map.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
                                  
                                   Tips
                                   ----

- Remember to save often. Better safe then sorry.

- Be sure to have plenty of healing items. You may be left in bad condition 
after some battles, with nowhere to heal.

- If you are stuck on a boss fight, try leveling up a couple of levels before 
re-attempting it again. Gaining levels works wonders.

- Get all the chests in every area you go to. Sometimes you may find a helpful 
item or a new piece of powerful equipment.

- Take your time and enjoy the game. Do the side-quests, level up, and just 
have fun.

                             IV. Walkthrough
==============================================================================

After starting a new file you will be given the choice to choose between 
Active and Wait for your battle settings. If you are new to the game, or RPG's 
for that matter, I suggest you choose Wait. Choosing Wait lets you think about 
the attacks you could use and it takes you through the battles slower and 
easier. On the other hand, if you have played this game before or you are an 
experienced RPG player, you should choose the Active setting. In the Active 
setting, the enemy hits you whether or not you are ready to attack, and the 
battles are more fast paced. 

For me, I chose Active because I like the challenge and fast paced battles, 
but it's up to you. After choosing the one that best suites you, you get a 
chance to name the main character, Crono. When you are finished naming him, 
you see a short cut scene where the Millenial Fair is opening and there are 
also fireworks going off and balloons floating everywhere. The game then 
shifts the scene to Crono's room.

==============================================================================
Location: Crono's House
Suggested Level: 1
Items: 200G
==============================================================================

Shops - None
============

You begin the game by hearing your mother calling you, and waking you up. She 
opens the curtains and tells you to behave at the Millenial Fair. Crono then 
gets out of bed and you have control of him. Follow his mother down the stairs 
where you meet her at the bottom. She tells you that your friend Lucca (which 
you get to name) wants you to stop by to see her invention. When she finishes 
talking be sure to talk to her again to receive 200G which is your allowance.

Head out of the house and into the World Map. You can do one of two things 
here. You can either head to the Millenial Fair to keep the story moving, or 
visit the Mayor's Manor, which is located south at the end of the bunch of 
houses. I suggest visiting the Manor to add a couple items to your inventory 
and learn a few tips from the locals.

==============================================================================
Location: Mayor's Manor
Suggested Level: 1
Items: Tonic, 100G, 300G
==============================================================================

Shops - None
============

The house is packed full of people with lots of information. Listen to 
everyone to gain valuable advice. Downstairs, get the Tonic in the chest next 
to the woman. Upstairs, listen to the man's advice then talk to him once more 
to receive 300G. After collecting the money, open the chest behind him to get 
100G. 

When your finished getting the items and listening to everyone, head north to 
Leene Square where the Millenial Fair is being held.

==============================================================================
Location: Leene Square
Suggested Level: 1
Items: None
==============================================================================

Shops 
=====

Weapons Shop            Armor Shop                   Item Shop

Weapon      | Price     Armor          |  Price      Item      | Price

Lode Sword  - 4000G     Bronze Helmet  -   200G      Heal      -   10G
                                                     Revive    -  200G
                                                     Shelter   -  150G

Upon entering Leene Square, you'll notice it's packed full of people. In the 
center you should see a bunch of people racing in a circle. That is just one 
of the many fair games you can play (Note: Winning at any of the games results 
in you receiving Silver Points. Silver Points are not Gold, although they can 
be exchanged for money). To the left is a hammer/bell contest, and to the 
right is the Carnival of Horrors. Once you've had your fill with the games, 
you should talk to Melchior (hes standing where the swords are) and pick up an 
Iron Blade. After getting the blade, head to the left and talk to the man in 
the tent to pick up a Karate Gi. Equip your new items on Crono, sell your old 
stuff, then head up to the next area.

When you enter the area, you should see a girl in a white outfit running 
around. Walk towards her and you two will collide into each other. The force 
from the impact sends her Pendant flying. Apologize to her first, then 
retrieve her Pendant for her. She tells you her name is Marle, and asks if she 
could walk with you for a while. Accept her offer to get her to join you. 
After doing so, there are a few more things you should do before going to see 
Lucca's invention.

Head to the left side of the area and you will see a pink bag. Don't touch it 
because it effects the outcome of an event later in the game. To the right of 
the bag should be a cat. Talk to it to get it to follow you. It's owner, a 
little girl, is on the opposite side from you so head all the way to the right 
until you see her. Give the cat to her and she and Marle will thank you. 

After your done giving the cat to the girl, go back towards where the pink bag 
was and head up to another area of the park. You will come across a robot 
named Gato. This is a great place to get used to the battle system and gain 
experience, since the robot allows you to fight him. I recommend you stay here 
until Crono and Marle reach level 2 and learn their first Techs. 

When your done having all your fun with the robot, exchange the Silver Points 
you earned for money (at the purple tent in the second area). When you receive 
the money head South to the first area of the park and buy a Karate Gi for 
Marle. Another important task you should do is talk to Melchior again. He will 
ask for you to sell Marle's Pendant, but tell him no. At this point, you 
should get a message on the screen that tells you Lucca's invention is ready. 
To reach the invention, just go directly North through the park.

Just before you enter the invention area, Marle stops you and asks if she 
could buy some candy. When she is buying the candy, do not move around as this 
will also effect an event later in the game. When she is done buying her 
candy, go into the new area. You will see Taban, who is Lucca's father, asking 
for people to try his daughters new "Super Dimension Warp" machine. Talk to 
Lucca and she will ask Crono to try it out for her. When Crono's done, Marle 
thought it looked cool so she decides she wants to try it to. All is going 
smoothly until she steps on the Telepod. Her Pendant starts to shine, and then 
it opens a time warp which she falls in to. No one knows where she went, but 
her Pendant is still on the Telepod. With Crono, grab it and Lucca and Taban 
will start the machine again. Just before you fly through the warp that Marle 
fell through, Lucca tells you that she will follow you when she finds out what 
went wrong. You'll then be warped to Truce Canyon.

==============================================================================
Location: Truce Canyon
Suggested Level: 2
Items: Tonic, Power Glove
==============================================================================

Shops - None
============

When you arrive, you will be in a small spot with bushes around you. Move 
forward and 3 Blue Imps will attack. Easily defeat them and head left. Climb 
up the ladder and go over the bridge. Before you can go anywhere, 2 more Blue 
Imps will confront you. Finish them off and grab the chest to the left which 
contains a Tonic. Next, head South and grab the Power Glove item out of the 
chest. Equip it on Crono to give him a small power boost. Head down the ladder 
and defeat the 2 Blue Imps and Roly to reach the World Map.

When your on the World Map, you will notice its darker than usual and there is 
also different music playing. This is because you are now in the 600 A.D. time 
period. To learn more information about the new place, head to the houses and 
speak to the people there. Before moving on, you should take a rest in the 
inn, stock up on items, and save your game. When your ready to go, head to the 
left of the village and into Guardia Forest.

==============================================================================
Location: Guardia Forest
Suggested Level: 2
Items: Power Tab, Shelter
==============================================================================

Shops - None
============

Guardia Forest is a small forest blocking the path to Guardia Castle, 
preventing direct access. It's not very long nor challenging, and you can even 
pick up a few items along the way.

Begin by heading north and taking a left at the fork. You should be confronted 
by 3 Blue Eaglets. Defeat them and head north until you see a bush rustling. 
Check it out, and 2 Roly Riders should attack you. Destroy them both and move 
right a couple of steps. You should notice another rustling bush. Observe it, 
and a monster will jump out and run away, leaving behind a shelter. Continue 
right and you will get attacked by 3 Rolys. Quickly finish them off and begin 
heading south, only to get attacked by more enemies.

After finishing off the enemies, head south then east a few steps and you 
should see a flashing blue dot. Press the A Button while standing next to it 
to receive a Power Tab. Once you have it, go in a north west direction until 
you reach the top part of Guardia Forest. At the top, you will be attacked by 
some Roly Riders. Easily finish them, and head up and out of the forest.

==============================================================================
Location: Guardia Castle
Suggested Level: 3
Items: 100G, Bronze Mail, Ether x2
==============================================================================

Shops - None
============

When you enter Guardia Castle, two soldiers will stop you and begin insulting 
you. Before the soldiers can say anymore, Queene Leene enters the room and 
invites you into the castle. Follow her to the back where you can meet the 
King. He thanks you for saving his wife, the Queen, and tells you she has lost 
her Coral Pin. At the end of the conversation, he allows you to rest in the 
Knights Quarters which are downstairs to the left. You should take him up on 
his offer, as you can regain your health after fighting those battles in 
Guardia Forest.

After your rest, there are a few things you should do. If you want, you can 
visit the kitchen which is in the basement on the opposite side of you. There, 
you can eat some of the castles food, and talk to the chef. Your first task, 
though, should be to head up the stairs on the left side of the King. When you 
reach the second level, grab the chest there which contains 100G. Keep running 
up the stairs until you reach the top. Once at the top, talk to the left guard 
standing outside of the door, to learn that the Chancellor has been acting 
strange lately. After your done talking to him, head into the room and grab 
the Bronze Mail out of the chest. Equip the armor on Crono, then speak to the 
maid standing by the table. When your finished talking to everyone, go back 
down the stairs to the Throne Room (where the King is).

When you reach the Throne Room, go up the stairs on the right side of the King 
this time. On the second level, there is another chest containing a Tonic. 
Take it and proceed up the steps. At the top, talk to the guard and he will 
let you pass into the Queens room. Talk to the Queen, and she will reveal 
herself as Marle. She thanks you for coming after her, then starts acting 
strangely. She tells you that she feels like she is being torn apart, then she 
starts changing colors. In a blink of an eye, she vanishes and is nowhere to 
be seen. Before exiting the room, take the Ether out of the chest.

Exit the Queens room and talk to the group of people outside. When your 
finished, go back down the stairs. When you reach the bottom, you will hear 
someone shouting your name. It's Crono's friend, Lucca, who comes running onto 
the screen asking if you found Marle yet. She then rambles on about how she 
had seen Marle somewhere before, and how the castle looks the same as in their 
time. You will then see a short clip about how Marle is a descendant of Queen 
Leene, and is Princess Nadia in their time. Lucca will then explain the 
situation, and tell you that you must find Queen Leene before Marle disappears 
from time totally.

After Lucca joins your party, head to the Kitchen in the basement again to 
find an Ether in a chest. When your done getting the item, it may be a good 
time to rest in the Knights Quarters. When your fully healed and ready to go, 
head to the World Map and back into Guardia Forest.

==============================================================================
Location: Guardia Forest
Suggested Level: 3
Items: Shelter
==============================================================================

Shops - None
============

Since this is your second time in the area you should be pretty familiar with 
it. Head south while defeating the enemies in your path. Be sure to get the 
Shelter which is in the same spot as last time (observe the bush that is 
rustling). This is also a good time to gain a couple of levels since Lucca is 
a new addition to your party, and you will be facing your first boss soon.

When you reach the World Map, go back to the Market and buy a Dart Gun and 
Bronze Helm for Lucca. Sell Lucca's old stuff, then head over to the Truce Inn 
and take a little rest. When your done resting, stock up on items and save 
your game. When your ready to go, head west past Guardia Forest to enter the 
Cathedral.

==============================================================================
Location: Cathedral
Suggested Level: 5
Items: 100G, Speed Belt, Steel Saber, Naga-ette Bromide, Tonic x3, Revive, 
Heal, Ether x2, Mid Ether, Shelter, Iron Sword, Maiden Suit, Defender, Power 
Tab
==============================================================================

Shops - None
============

When you enter the Cathedral, you will notice there are a couple of Nuns 
standing around. Talk to the one by the Organ, and a flashing blue dot will 
appear to the right of you. Press the A Button next to it and Lucca will pick 
up a Hairpin. The four Nuns will then surround you and transform into Naga-
ettes. To easily win the battle, keep pummeling them with Crono and Lucca's 
Dual Tech, Fire Whirl.

Lucca feels relieved when the battle is over, but another Naga-ette appears 
and tries to grab her. Suddenly, a Frog with a cape and sword jumps from above 
and destroys the enemy. He then asks if you would accompany him into the 
'lair'. Accept his offer and he will introduce himself as Frog. Once he is in 
your party, walk over to the organ and play it. Upon doing so, it reveals a 
hidden door in the wall. Once it's revealed, enter it.

When you enter the new area, take a left down the hallway. Fight the Diablos 
in your way to reach a Tonic and Revive that are in the two chests. After 
getting the items, head left then up until you reach a set of stairs. Go up 
the stairs and into the first door. Inside are 3 chests containing a Maiden 
Suit, Tonic, and Ether. Equip the Maiden Suit on Lucca so you can raise her 
defense. Before leaving, observe the mirror sitting on the dresser. This is 
the secret Naga-ette Bromide. Once you take it, 3 Henches will enter the room. 
Defeat them and head back into the hallway.

From the room you where in, go right then up to find a chest with a Steel 
Saber in it. Equip the new sword on Crono, then take a few steps to the left. 
You should see a doorway guarded by spikes. To lower them, touch the glowing 
skull on the left side of the door. Once the spikes are lowered, enter the 
room. Inside, are two soldiers who will tell you a little about the place.  
After your done speaking to them, inspect the bucket on the left side of the 
room to receive a Power Tab.

When you exit the room, go down the stairs you came up earlier, and take a 
right to cross the hallway. Defeat the Diablos and Gnashers that try and 
attack you. When you reach the other side, head up the stairs and into the 
door. Inside are three monsters eating. Talk to the Diablo and he will exit 
the room. Follow him out of the door and around the balcony, to the door above 
you. When you enter, you will see two chests. One contains 100G, the other an 
Ether. Before you can exit the room, the humans transform into Gnashers and 
attack you. Quikly defeat them, but DO NOT leave the room yet. Instead, look 
for an opening in the right wall. Enter it to find an area where a chorus of 
monsters is singing. Talk to the first Diablos you see to start a fight. 
Destroy the chorus of monsters that attack you, then grab the two chests which 
contain a Speed Belt and Defender. You should equip the Defender on Lucca, 
because she needs the defense, and the Speed Belt you can equip on whoever you 
would like. When your done getting the items, exit the two rooms to get back 
to the main room.

When you reach the main room, head down the steps. Take a left and head up the 
center path while defeating any enemies in your path. Enter the door to find a 
save point. This is a good time to use a shelter and save your game. When you 
are ready, go up the stairs and take a left. Grab the chest at the end of the 
balcony to receive a Shelter. Try going down the stairs and they will drop 
causing you to fall down. Go into the door and straight ahead while fighting 
any enemies in your way. Outside of the second door, you should see a skull. 
Do not touch it, or it will make more enemies appear. So, just head into the 
door and fight the enemies that attack you. When you finish them off, grab the 
Tonic and Heal out of their chests.

Just to the right of the chests should be a note saying 'No Entry'. After 
reading the note, go right and enter the door. Defeat the enemies inside, then 
observe the glowing skull to the left of the door. Triggering this switch 
causes the spikes in the center room to lower. So, follow the path down and 
around until you reach the door to the center room. Enter and a couple of 
Henches and Diablos will attack you. After the battle, take the Iron Sword out 
of the chest and equip it on Frog. When your done, play the organ to the left.

Doing so, will open a secret door where you found that note earlier. So, head 
all the way back to where the note was and enter the door. Upon entering, 
defeat all the enemies in the room. After the enemies are gone, you'll notice 
that there is a save point in the top left corner. Once again, use a Shelter 
and save your game. After saving and healing, enter the room. When you enter, 
you will see the Chancellor and Queen Leene. The Queen runs behind you and 
then the Chancellor starts threatening everybody. He then steps in front of 
you and transforms into Yakra.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Yakra
HP: 920
Weakness: None
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This fight should not be too difficult. When the battle begins, start by 
hitting him with Crono and Frog's Dual Tech, X-Strike. This should cause about 
150 HP of damage with each hit, which is good. Beware, though, because every 
time you hit him, he will counter by hitting everyone for about 15 HP. He also 
has an attack that can cause around 40 HP of damage. Just be safe, and keep an 
eye on your HP. If it gets to low, use Tonics to heal or Frog's Slurp Tech. To 
finish him off, keep using X-Strike or Fire Whirl and he should be gone in no 
time.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When Yakra is defeated, Queen Leene runs into the room and thanks you for 
saving her. When she leaves, open the two chests to reveal the Real Chancellor 
and to get a Mid Ether. Talk to Leene by the door again, and she will tell you 
to return to the castle.

When you return to the castle, you see a short scene where the King is looking 
at the Queen. Frog then proclaims that he failed to protect the Queen, then 
leaves the room. Follow him out of the room and talk to him. He will tell you 
that he is departing for good this time, and that you have potential to be a 
good swordsman. Once he leaves, return to the Throne Room and talk to Queen 
Leene. Lucca then tells you that Princes Nadia, who is Marle, should have 
reappeared in the place she vanished. So, head up the stairs to the right of 
the Queen. At the top, enter the Queens Room and Marle will reappear. They'll 
talk for a little while until Marle asks you a question. Choose the choice 
'Wrong!' if you want to make her happy. After Marle rejoins the group, head 
back downstairs.

Before leaving, take a snooze in the Knights Quarters to recover your HP. When 
you are ready to leave, head back into Guardia Forest.

When you reach Leene Square, Marle asks Crono and Lucca to have dinner at the

next area. All of the mini-games that were here previously are still here. So, 
if you want to play any games feel free too (Note: Remember when your done 
playing, exchange your silver points for gold). When your ready to leave, head 
directly south to reach the World Map.

When your on the World Map, you should stop by the market. There, you should

When you enter the castle, the Chancellor will run into the room asking if 
Marle is all right. He then accuses Crono of kidnapping Princess Nadia. Marle 
tries to tell him otherwise, but he just won't listen. After some more 
conversation, a group of blue soldiers run into the room and detain Crono.

The scene then switches to a court room with a judge and the Chancellor 
standing beside him. There is also a lawyer, who's name is Pierre, standing to 
the right of the judge. Now, remember all those things I told you to do at the 
fair that would determine a later event? Well, this is the event. Anyways, 
after a few seconds they bring in Crono who has been accused of abducting 
Princess Nadia. The Chancellor and lawyer will exchange conversation, then the 
Chancellor will begin asking you questions. Answer truthfully to all of them. 
When he is finished asking you questions, your lawyer will start to bring in 
defendants (such as the little girl you  gave the cat to) to defend you, 
depending on what you did at the fair.

After more questioning, the jury will start casting votes of either 'Guilty' 
or 'Not Guilty'. Guilty or not, Crono still gets 3 days of solitary 
confinement for running away with Marle. The blue guards come back in to take 
Crono away, but Marle interrupts by running into the court room. She barely 
even gets to speak and Crono gets shipped away by the guards.

When you wake up in the jail cell, you'll notice there is a pink bag (it will 
only be there if you were innocent) which contains an Ether. There is also a 
cup in the corner of the room you should drink from, to restore your HP and 
MP. After doing so, you should save your game at the save point. Now, there 
are two options open to you; you can either wait 3 days until the execution, 
or break out of the cell. I recommend you wait the 3 days until the execution, 
because if you do, Lucca will rejoin your party. But, if you break out now, 
you'll have to go through almost all of the dungeon by yourself.

After waiting 3 days for the execution, the guard and two knights will escort 
you to a small room with a guillotine in it. Crono gets put under it, but 
before they drop the blade, Lucca jumps into the room and blasts everyone with 
her new Zonker-38. Once your free from the guillotine, grab the Bronze Mail 
out of the chest and head south into the next room. Take the Mid Tonic out of 
the chest, then free the man from the guillotine. He will thank you, and 
introduce himself as Fritz. He will also tell Crono to visit his store in 
Truce Village.

After Fritz leaves the room, head south and check the fallen guard for a Mid 
Tonic. Once you have it, go left and fight the guard standing there. Quickly 
finish him and head down the stairs to the left. Cross the bridge while 
defeating any enemies in your way. When you enter the room on the other side, 
you'll notice two enemies blocking the path. Start a battle with them and 
easily defeat them. Once they are out of the way, go down the bottom right 
hand stairs and cross the bridge.

When you enter the room, defeat the guard and open the jail cell. Inside you 
will find four chests containing 2 Ethers and 2 Mid Tonics. Once you have the 
items, make your way back to the bridge and an Omnicrone will attack you. Make 
quick work of him and cross the bridge. Go back up the stairs you came from 
(the top right stairs) and cross the bridge. You will end up in the same area 
you started in, but this time instead of taking a left, take the path leading 
up and left. Defeat the guard blocking the door, then head through it and 
cross the bridge.

When you reach the other side, don't worry about the 2 Blue Sheilds blocking 
the way. Instead, head down the stairs straight in front of you. When you 
reach this room, open the first jail cell and take the shelter from the chest. 
Now, exit the room and fight the 2 Blue Sheilds. Destroy them both and head up 
the stairs in the top left corner of the screen. Inside the room, go into the 
second cell and you should see a big hole in the wall. Enter it and climb down 
the side of the castle.

When you reach the room at the bottom, take the shelter from the chest. After 
doing so, do not leave the room yet. There should be a hole in the ground to 
the left of the chest, which you should jump in. At the bottom are 2 chests 
which contain 1500G and a Lode Sword. Equip the Lode Sword on Crono, then head 
back up through the hole. Make your way up the side of the castle and back 
into the room with the Blue Shields. This time, go up the stairs on the top 
right side of the screen.

Follow the little path until you reach a huge wooden door. Head inside and 
inspect the guard that's passed out. You will receive 6 Mid Tonics. Once 
you've done so, check out the note that's sitting on the ground. It will tell 
you some valuable information you will need in the next boss fight. Now is 
also a good time to save your game and use a shelter, at the nearby save 
point. When your healed, head up the stairs. At the top of the stairs cross 
the bridge. Before you can reach the end, you are confronted by the Dragon 
Tank.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Dragon Tank, Tank Head, Grinder
HP: Dragon Tank - 266, Tank Head - 600, Grinder - 208
Weakness: None
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your first order of business with the tank should be to take out its head, 
since it can heal the other parts of the tank. To defeat the head, just simply 
keep using your normal attacks. Once the head is defeated, you should take out 
the Grinder, or wheels. What you can do though, is use Fire Whirl to damage 
both parts of the body for about 105 HP. Also, keep an eye on your HP. The 
Dragon Tank has a couple of attacks that can take a good portion of your HP 
away, and he uses them consecutively. If you need to heal, just use some of 
your Tonics or Mid Tonics.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the battle is over, Crono will jump onto the tank and finish it off. The 
Chancellor and guards rush out and try to fix it, but it explodes taking a 
chunk out of the bridge. Don't worry though, as the Chancellor and guards end 
up making a man bridge! Cross over them and into the first room. Grab the 
shelter from the chest, then head down the stairs. Stop when you see two 
guards just standing there. Exit here and they will try to block your path. 
Once you reach the main staircase, Marle comes in and stops them. Behind her 
are the Chancellor and King. The King and Marle get into a fight, which is 
when Maarle decides to run away with your group. You are then chased out to 
Guardia Forest by a group of soldiers.

When you enter the area, you will notice that there are rats running around. 
Do not get near them or they will steal your items. With that said, begin by 
heading all the way right until you hit a wall. Head up, dodge the rat, and 
grab the Beserker out of the chest. Go left through a little opening, then 
destroy the Octopod and Man Eaters that attack you.

After the battle, head north and you'll run into some Craters, and a Meat 
Eater. Easily destroy them, then go right while dodging the rat that's running 
around. Take the Lode Sword that's in the chest and continue north. Dodge the 
few rats running around and grab the Lode Bow from the chest. Equip it on 
Marle before doing anything else. Once it's equipped, head south and you will 
get attacked by more Octopods and Man Eaters. Quickly defeat them and go north 
until you find yourself in another battle, only this time your fighting 
Craters. Once you finish these guys off, go right while dodging the rat, and 
head into the new area.

In the new area, go east then south to the bottom of the screen where you will 
find a chest containing an Ether. After getting the item, run to the right and 
you will get attacked by three shadows. Make quick work of them by using your 
Tech and Magic attacks. When the battle is over, walk right a few more steps 
and you'll get attacked by another three. Hit them with the Fire Whirl Dual 
Tech to finish them in one blow. When the shadows are gone, head directly 
north and a mutant will attack you. Defeat him and head up and onto the World

Upon entering the Dome, follow the little path until you reach an area where 
there is a group of people. An old man will begin talking to your party and 
will be surprised that you made it through the ruins. When the old man is 
finished talking to you, talk to him again to find out his name, which is 
Doan. He will then tell you that there is food in the basement, but it is 
guarded by security robots. Well, guess who is going down there? You guessed 
it! Before you go though, head over to the Enertron to heal your party. When 
you are done, head down the stairs to the left and talk to the little girl 
behind the counter. You should stock up on items from her, then save your 
game. When you are ready to go, head down the ladder in the center of the 
area.

When you reach the room below, you will see two computer systems. Observe 
either of them and Lucca will tell you that you need a password to get 
through. So, climb up the ladder to the left of the computers to reacher 
another area. When you enter the new area, you will be on a metal walkway that 
is hanging from the ceiling. Begin by moving in a northeast direction until 
you see a rat. Inspect it, to find a note attached to it. The note will warn 
you that if you enter the stock room, you will be attacked. Ignore the note 
for now, and follow the metal bar around until you reach the stock room, which 
is north of you. When you enter, an alarm will sound causing the guard robots 
to attack you.

This boss may give you a little trouble if you are not on a high enough level. 
It consists of two parts, the Guardian, and the Bits. DO NOT attack the 
Guardian if the Bits are still around. This causes him to counter attack 
causing 70+ damage of HP to your entire party. Instead, what you want to do is 
to destroy the Bits first. Once the Bits are gone, you can just pound away on 
the Guardian. Beware, though, as when you kill the Bits, the Guardian will 
begin a countdown from 5 to 0. When the countdown reaches 0, the Guardian 
revives the Bits. So, just repeat the process until he is defeated. You will 
also want to keep your party healthy, so if your HP gets to low, heal with 
Tonics or Aura Whirl.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the battle is over, head north into the stock room. Upon entering, Marle 
finds a dead body in the back of the room. When your party further 
investigates him, they find a seed attached to a note, which they take. When 
you have control of Crono, inspect the man again to find a note. The note 
tells you that the rat you saw earlier knows the secrets of the Dome, so catch 
it! Once you read the note, grab the Mid Ether out of the chest and head 
south, back to the room where you saw the rat earlier.

When you see the rat, get ready to play a little game of cat and mouse. You 
are told to chase the rat down by dashing, B Button, and catching it, A 
Button. Once you catch him, the rat will tell you the password to the two 
computers you saw earlier. With the password in hand, head south and go down 
the ladder to reach the computer room. There, head over to the computer that 
has a sparkling blue dot on it, and use the password (Hold the L and R Buttons 
then press A). Doing so triggers a switch that repairs the walkway that was 
once broken. After you have repaired it, cross over and enter the door into a 
new section of the Dome.

Now, start by defeating the Bugger and Rats, then head north and grab the Mid 
Ether out of the chest. Once you have done so, head back to where you entered 
the area and take a left up the stairs. Follow the path north until you reach 
a couple of Bugs. Quickly finish them and take a few steps south, where you 
will be confronted by two more. When they are defeated, follow the path around 
until you reach a door. Enter the door and fight the Proto 2 that will be in 
front of you.

Once he is defeated, go north and up the stairs. Follow the metal platform 
until you reach the other side. Exit off the stairs and go north a little ways 
to encounter another Proto 2. Finish him off, then head up the stairs that 
were to the left of him. Go north then east along the little platform until 
you reach another door. Head inside and you will notice that there are a 
couple of computers in the back. Walk north a couple of steps and Lucca will 
run forward and begin working on the computer. Through her searches, she finds 
that there is a gate you guys can use to get back, which is located east of 
the Arris Dome. Marle then gets excited and runs to the computer and hits a 
button. The button she pushes starts a visual recording of The Day of Lavos. 
When the recording is over, Marle can't believe that that is how the world 
will end. Your party then decides to change the future by defeating Lavos.

When your done in the room, exit it and follow the path that you did before. 
Defeat any enemies in your path and make your way back to the room with the 
two computers. When you finally reach the room, head south and go up the 
ladder on the right. This will take you back to the area where all the people 
were earlier. Upon entering, Doan will ask you if you discovered anything. 
Your party will then give him the seed you found. Doan will then thank you and 
give you the Bike Key, which activates the Jet Bike in Lab 32. Afterwards, 
talk to everyone to see what they have to say. Also, you should head on over 
to the Enertron to recover your HP/MP, then save your game. When your ready to 
leave, head back to the World Map.

you. Quickly finish them, then take a rest in the Enertron to the left to 
regain your health. After your healed, go right and follow the path until you 
see a robot. Inspect it and Lucca will tell you that she thinks that she can 
repair him. After a few seconds, Lucca finishes fixing him and then the robot 
starts to move. The robot then thanks Lucca for fixing him and introduces 
himself as R66-Y. Since Marle doesn't like the name, she decides that he needs 
a new name. Marle then comes up with the name Robo. After some more 
conversation, your party decides to go to the Factory so they can turn on the 
power to the Proto Dome. Choose who you want to leave behind (I chose to leave 
behind Marle and take Lucca) and when your ready, head back to the World Map.

On the World Map, go directly north of the Proto Dome to reach the Factory,

============

Upon entering the Factory, observe the computer in front of you. Robo will 
override the security and an Acid enemy will fall from above. Defeat him and 
head across the right conveyer belt towards the back. Step on the glowing 
object (the one on the right) which is an elevator. Take it downstairs. When 
there, go down the first ladder you see. Now, there should be two ladders in 
front of you. Take the left one and run down the long corridor to find a Robin 
Bow in a chest at the end. Equip it on Marle (if she is in your party) then 
head back down the corridor and go back up the ladder.

This time, you will want to take the right ladder down. So, go down it and 
follow the path until you reach a little control room. Enter it and walk out 
onto the conveyer belt. Walk left and jump into the little nook and wait for 
the robots to pass. Once they are gone, head back on the conveyer belt and go 
left. Get off at the next little nook and take the Ether out of the chest. 
Now, get on the conveyer belt and touch one of the robots. Once you touch one, 
a giant crane will pick you up and drop you on a different conveyer belt, 
forcing you to go through 3 rooms full of enemies. After going through all 3   
rooms, you will get dropped of in a new section of the area you are at.

Head south into the next room and you should see 4 Bugs. To finish your battle 
with them quickly, use Fire Whirl (if Lucca is in your party) or Rocket Roll. 
When the battle is over, head up the ladder into the next area. Run across the 
walkway and take a right. Grab the Mid Tonic out of the chest, then go into 
the room. Take the 400G and Mid Ether from their chests, then observe the 
computer screen in the center of the room. It will tell you the Crane Control 
Code which is; Code 00: X,A / Code 01: B,B. After receiving the code, the two 
Proto 3's will start moving around the room. Destroy them and exit the room.

Now, you will want to go left into the Crane Control room. When you enter, two 
Proto 3's will be walking around the room. Quickly destroy them and two 
Debuggers will drop in on you. Finish them off and grab the Shelter and Ether 
from the chests. Once you have both items, head south. You will appear in an 
area where you can control the crane. The machine will then want you to enter 
the first code (X,A). The giant crane that picked you up earlier, will grab 
one of the barrels and move it out of the way. The machine will then prompt 
you to enter the second code (B,B). The crane will then come back down and 
remove a second barrel from your path.
 
Now that the barrels are gone, head back into the Crane Control room. Destroy 
the two enemies, then exit the room. When you exit the room, look for a ladder 
to the left of the door. Once you find it, head down it and go left until you 
see another door. Enter it and take the Bolt Sword out of the chest, which you 
should then equip on Crono. After equipping the item, observe the computer 
screen and it should tell you another code (X,A,B,Y). Once you have the code, 
exit the room and head right all the way down the long corridor. Climb the 
ladder at the end, then climb the next one you see (it should lead into a 
small little room). When your inside the little room, go right (you won't be 
able to see Crono) and press the A Button to receive a Mid Ether. Now, exit 
the room and head up to the elevator you came down from earlier. Once you 
reach it, take it up.

You should be back in the main room where you started. This time you will want 
to take the left elevator, so head over to it and take it down. When you get 
off the elevator, you should see a save point. This is a good time to use a 
Shelter and save your game. When your finished, head into the room above you. 
In this room, two Alkalines should attack you. Once you defeat them, observe 
the computer that turned on and it will open a hatch. Head down it to reach a 
new area of the Factory. When you reach the new area, take a left and follow 
the one way path. Defeat any enemies that attack you along the way. 
Eventually, you will come to a room with 4 lasers in it. Before you do 
anything, take the Titan Vest (equip it on Crono) and Hammer Arm (equip it on 
Robo) from the two chests in the room. After that is done, inspect the 
computer in the room and Robo will shut off the defense lasers. Once the 
lasers are shut off, 5 enemies will fall down and attack you. Easily defeat 
them by using your Techs and Magic.

When the enemies are cleared out, look for a small hidden hatch on the left 
side of the room (it's below the left chest). Head down it and follow the 
center path up. Take the Plasma Gun from its chest and equip it on Lucca (if 
she is in your party). Now, check out the computer and it will tell you to 
enter the password (X,A,B,Y). Once it's entered, the door leading to the 
control room will open.

Walk into the control room and flip the master control switch, which sounds an 
alarm. Robo will then tell you that you must escape because the security 
system has gone haywire. So, head straight down the way you came and the 
security doors will begin to close. Robo will then jump in and prevent one 
from closing, saving Crono and Lucca/Marle. When your party is through all the 
doors and is back together, head up the ladder to the left (you can't take the 
elevators because they are shut off). Follow the path around the same way you 
came in before and you will eventually be stopped by a group of blue robot 
guards. Robo thinks that they are his friends, but they're not. Robo try's 
talking to them, but gets pounded into submission and thrown into the garbage. 
So, you and your party member are left to take care of the robots.

Boss: R Series
HP: 180 (each)
Weakness: None
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This boss is pretty easy and shouldn't cause you any major problems. Begin by 
having Crono use his Cyclone Tech to damage two of the robots at a time. After 
two hits from the Cyclone, the robots should be destroyed. Keep repeating this 
process until the robots are gone. For healing purposes, have your second 
character, be it either Marle or Lucca, use Tonics or Mid Tonics. If you have 
Marle though, use Aura Whirl to heal both your characters.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the fight is over, Lucca pulls Robo out of the garbage. Lucca then tells 
you that he is in bad shape and may not be able to be repaired. Your party 
then decides to head back over to the Proto Dome for the time being.

After the conversation, you will see a short seen where your party members are 
on the World Map dragging Robo back to the Proto Dome.

When your group finally makes it to the Proto Dome, Lucca begins repairing

Lucca uses the Gate Key to open the time portal and transport you to The End

When you arrive, go down the stairs in front of you to reach a new room. 
Observe the sparkling object by the save point to recover your HP/MP, then 
save your game at the save point. After saving your game, talk to the old man 
that's sleeping and he will tell you where you are. He will also tell you that 
one of your party members must stay there, since only a party of 3 can travel. 
I suggest taking a party of Crono, Marle, and Lucca as they will be of great 
assistance in an upcoming boss fight. After choosing your party, the man will 
explain what the pillars of light you saw earlier do. When you finish the 
conversation with him, check out the sparkling blue object to the left of him. 
He will then tell you to take a peek inside the room behind him.

Enter the room and you will see a small creature in the center. He will 
introduce himself as Spekkio, The Master of War. He'll then ask you if he 
looks strong or weak. Choose either answer and Spekkio will begin to explain 
what magic is and where it came from. After his short little speech, he 
assigns everyone an element; Crono Lightning, Marle Water, and Lucca Fire 
(Robo does not have an element so he can't use magic). To fully obtain these 
powers though, you will have to walk clockwise around the room 3 times (Note: 
Start from the door and hug the wall from corner to corner). 

Once you have done so, talk to Spekkio again and he will grant your party 
their magic powers (Note: Every time you get a new character, return to 
Spekkio to teach that character their magic). Once you have learned your 
magic, you can challenge Spekkio to a fight and win various prizes. Don't 
worry about getting defeated though because you will not get a Game Over. 
After having your fun with Spekkio, head back into the main room and talk to 
the old man. He will tell you that you need to return to your own time period, 
or things will get harder to change. Now that you know where to go, go back to 
the pillars of light and take the top most one to Medina Village 1000 A.D.

*Note: The reason why I said there was no shops, is because the Market in 
Medina Village sells items for outrageous prices, that you could never afford.

When you arrive back in your own time, you will pop out of a closet in a 
villagers home. When they see you, the villagers will freak out and tell you 
to leave. Before you can though, one of them stops you and tells you a little 
history about the village. He will also tell you that the Mystics here don't 
like humans. With that said, head out of the house and onto the World Map.

When your on the World Map, make a quick stop at the Elders House (it's the 
house above the one you just came out of) and talk to everyone. When you are 
finished talking to everybody, take the Speed Tab from the counter downstairs. 
Afterwards, head upstairs and talk to the little kid. He will tell you that 
there is a monster in a cave to the west that can only be damaged by Magic 
Attacks. Once your finished talking to him, take the Magic Tab that is on his 
desk, then exit the house.

When your on the World Map again, go northeast and enter the Forest Ruins.

When you enter Melchior's Hut, talk to Melchior and he will show you his 
selection of items. Pick up a Red Katana for Crono and buy whatever else you 
need for your party. Also, stock up on Mid Tonics and buy a Shelter or two. 
Once you have bought your items, sell your old stuff then exit the house.

From Melchior's Hut, go north to reach the Heckran Cave.

Upon entering the cave, two Henches will attack you. Defeat them and head 
around the path until you reach a ladder. Head down it and take the Ether from 
its chest, then go down the ladder below the chest. Take a left and a group of 
enemies will attack you. Finish them off and head down the little set of 
stairs to the south. In this room, go south and two Tempurites will attack. 
Quickly defeat them and head south yet again, to reach a new room. Defeat the 
enemies in here and grab the Magic Scarf in the chest at the end of the room. 
Once you have it, return to the room you were in previously. When you return 
to the room, this time you will want to go left and grab the Mid Ether out of 
the chest. After doing so, go north until another set of Tempurites attack 
you. Once you defeat them, go north and grab the Ether out of the chest. Once 
you have the item, go directly south into a new area. 

In here, you will get attacked by yet another group of enemies. Destroy them 
and head into the next area of the cave. In this area, head north and a Jinn 
Bottle and a set of Octoblushes will confront you. Once they're defeated, head 
north into a room filled with water. Step into the water and go right until 
you come to a wall. Once you hit the wall, go north and up the stairs to reach 
a save point. Here, use a Shelter and save your game. When your healed, go 
north to confront the monster of the cave.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Heckran
HP: 2100
Weakness: Magic
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heckran is just like the other creatures you fought in the cave, as he can 
only be damaged by Magic. So, I suggest having a party of Crono, Marle, and 
Lucca since they all have strong magic attacks. Use their single Magic Techs 
against Heckran like *Lightning, *Ice, and *Fire to cause a good amount of 
damage. Also, try using Marle and Lucca's Dual Tech Antipode, which causes 
major damage. A little ways through the battle, Heckran will curl up into a 
ball and tell you to attack him. DO NOT attack him, or he will counter using 
his strong Water Wave attack. Instead, use this time to heal your party. Once 
Heckran uncurls, begin hitting him with your Magic until he is defeated.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once Heckran is defeated, head north and jump into the water. You will be shot 
out of a water vortex and land right next to Lucca's House. Since you're here, 
why not drop in to see what's happening.

and tell him that you will assist him in fighting the Troops. He will then 
give you a Gold Helm, which you should equip on Crono, then thank you. After 
equipping the Helm on Crono, head out onto the bridge and you'll see two 
skeletons kill some soldiers. Ozzie, Magus's top general, will then appear and 
fight you along with the skeletons you saw. Use Magic on the enemies to 
destroy them, then attack Ozzie to make him run away. Repeat this run and 
fight tactic until Ozzie forms a new monster out of the skeletons.

Boss: Zombor
HP: Top - 960, Bottom - 800
Weakness: Top - Water, Bottom - Fire
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This boss has two parts for you to attack, the top and the bottom. The top 
half of Zombor is weak against Water Magic, while the bottom half is weak 
against Fire Magic. So, have Marle attack the top part with *Ice and Crono and 
Lucca attack it with normal attacks. Every other turn, Zombor will hit you 
with a fire attack which will cause between 30-40 HP of damage. He also has a 
laser beam attack, that hits everyone for about 70 HP. Be sure to watch your 
HP though, and if it gets to low, heal with Mid Tonics. Anyway, once the top 
half is defeated, have Crono use his *Lightning Magic and Lucca use her *Fire 
Magic while Marle attacks with her normal attacks. After a few more rounds, 
the bottom half will be destroyed and you will win the battle.  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the battle, go left and exit the bridge. On the World Map, head south 
and enter the Elder's House. When you enter, you will hear a conversation 
between the Elder and a man named Toma, about a Rainbow Shell. Once they're 
done talking and Toma leaves, head over to the Dorino Inn. When you enter the 
Inn, spot Toma at the bar and talk to him. Pay his tab and he will tell you 
about some strange frogs in the southern woods. Once you are finished talking 
to him, exit the Inn and go to Fiona's Villa, which is southeast of where you 
are. Inside the Villa, take the two Mid Ethers from their chests, then talk to 
Fiona to learn some information about her. When you are finished speaking to 
her, I suggest taking a rest in the Inn and stocking up on items. When you are 
ready to go, head to the north of Fiona's Villa to reach the Denadoro 
Mountains.

============

Upon entering the mountains, fight and destroy the enemies that attack, then 
take the 300G out of the chest. Once you've done so, head north where you will 
see a boy being chased by a monster. Once he has left the screen, the monster 
will come to fight you. Quickly defeat him and the boy will tell you to leave 
the mountains due to how dangerous they are. He'll then run away again, 
leaving you to fight an Ogan (A quick way of beating these guys is to burn 
their weapons). After making quick work of the Ogan, head to the top-right 
part of the screen, so don't go up the ladder north of you just yet. You 
should be in a watery area, with a waterfall blocking you to the north. Here, 
to the left of the entrance, take the chest containing a MirageHand. 

After doing so, return to the ladder in the previous screen, and make your way 
up. Once your up the ladder, take the south west path to find a chest 
containing a Revive. After getting the Revive, continue north where a group of 
two enemies will attack. Make quick work of them both, then grab the Ether 
from the chest on the left. Once that's done, continue northward and up the 
ladder, where yet another group of monsters will fight you. Destroy them, then 
retrieve the 500G from the chest. Afterwards, head east along the path until 
until another Ogan confronts you. Defeat him quickly, and finish the path by 
heading north up two ladders and into the next area.

Here, begin by heading east, where a lone Free Lancer will surprise attack 
you. Destroy him, then head east along the path. Head to the right of the 
ladder, where a group of 2 Free Lancers will attack. Finish them both, then 
take the Revive out of the chest. Now, head west, past the ladder and up the 
little stone path. At the end of the path there should be a chest containing a 
Mid Ether. Take it, then go north up the ladder where yet another chest lies, 
containing a Gold Helm. Grab it and proceed up the ladder to the right, where 
an Ogan will confront you. Finish him with ease, then proceed west where 
another group of monsters will ambush you. After destroying them, head south 
and down the ladder to find a Mid Tonic in a chest. Afterwards, head north 
then west to move into the next area.

In this area, start by going north up the ladder, where a chest lies 
containing a Mid Ether. Take it, then head north up the ladder then east into 
another area. Here, begin heading east where an Ogan and Free Lancer will 
surprise attack. Destroy them and proceed up the ladder to the right. A few 
steps past the ladder, another set of Free Lancers will attack. Finish them 
and retreive the 600G from the chest to the right. 

Once you've done so, head north into another new area. Begin by proceeding to 
the left, but before you can get far, an Ogan and Goblin will attack. As soon 
as you finish these guys off, you will be forced to fight another battle with 
an Ogan and Free Lancer. After this short fight, you will be forced into yet 
another battle with an Ogan and Goblin. After making quick work of them, you 
are once again forced into another battle with 2 Free Lancers and an Ogan. 
Destroy these last baddies, then immediatly heal, seeing as that long chain of 
fights could have been tough. Once your set, head west to the next area.

Now, start by going south and getting the 300G from the chest. Once you 
retreive the money, head north to a watery area. Here, 2 Free Lancers and a 
Bellbird will attack. Quickly finish them, then proceed north to find a Mid 
Tonic inside a chest. Now, ready for a little fun? Well, after getting the 
chest, head south west into a little rocky nook and a waterfall below. Jump 
into the waterfall and you will land on a platform below, with a chest 
containing a SilverStud. Take it and immediatly equip it on either Marle or 
Lucca, since they will be using the most magic. Once you get the item, jump 
off the ledge from the right and land below. Follow the path south and take 
the SilverErng from the chest. Equip it on whoever you want, then follow the 
path north into another area. You should recognize the place since you have 
passed it already. Just head north, then west and you should be back at the 
spot where you jumped into the waterfall.

In this area, instead of jumping off the waterfall again, we need to head 
northwest. So, begin by moving north where the Free Lancers and Bellbird will 
challenge you again. Make quick work of them, and head east up the path where 
a Free Lancer is. You can talk to him and he'll to you to shut up and leave, 
so ignore him for now and take the chest containing a Mid Ether to the left of 
him. Afterwards, head south down the ladder and the Free Lancer you talked to 
earlier will get his buddy and fight you. Destroy them, then go west into 
another area. Here, move west towards the bridge and a set of 3 Bellbirds will 
attack. Finish them and continue west across the bridge to find a small 
creature. Now, talk to him about 4 times and he will become impatient and hand 
over a Magic Tab! 

Use the tab on somebody, then continue south. In this area, you should see a 
save point just below you. You should save your game here and I suggest you 
use a shelter to refresh your party, seeing as there is a boss fight coming 
soon. Once your through at the save point, move south down the ladder and 
retreive a Mid Ether from the chest. Now, continue south down the next ladder 
and you should see something shiny to the left of the ladder. Observe the 
ground and you will find a Speed Tab. Use the tab on one of your characters, 
then proceed east into a new area.

Upon entering this area, a Free Lancer will start throwing rocks at you. So, 
quickly head south and down the ladder. Take the shelter from its chest to the 
left, then go right and confront the 3 sleeping Goblins. Finish them easily, 
then head up the ladder to the Free Lancer that was throwing rocks at you. He 
will chop you down the ladder and you will have to fight a group of 2 Ogans 
and 2 Free Lancers. To finish them without to much hassal, use Fire Whirl on 
the Ogans, and regular attacks on the Free Lancers. Once their group falls, 
proceed north up the ladder and into the cave above.

When you enter the cave, head up the stairs in the back towards the sword. 
Before you can reach it, the kid stops you and asks if you are there for it. 
Answer 'yes' and Mune will call his brother, Masa, out. The two think you are 
a threat to the sword, so they're going to 'test' you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Masa & Mune, Masamune
HP: Masa - 1000, Mune - 1000, Masamune - 3600
Weakness: None
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the first part of this fight, you will have to fight Masa and Mune 
seperately. An easy way to finish these two, is to focus all attacks and magic 
on Mune, who is on the left. Once he is dead, you will move onto the next part 
of the fight. To kill him, just use Slash and Ice Sword / Fire Sword if you 
have them. Whatever you do, do not attack Masa, or they will use X-Strike on 
you. When you've destroyed him, Masa and Mune will transform into a more 
powerful monster, Masamune. This guy can be tough, but he is not too strong. 
Start out by unloading on him with Fire Sword / Ice Sword, Antipode, and any 
other techs you have. During the fight he will start 'storing tornado enregy'. 
Once he unleashes the attack on you be ready to heal. Other than that, this 
fight is pretty straight forward. If your HP's get to low, heal with Tonics or 
Aura Whirl.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After the battle, the two brothers seperate and talk a little. When there 
through, your party will move forward and examine the sword. Lucca examines it 
and can tell it looks very old. You will then receive the broken Masamune. 
Once this happens, Masa and Mune will congragulate you and wish you luck, then 
warp you back to the World Map. From here, head to the southern part of the 
continent where you will find another market. Inside, pick the Power Tab up 
from the ground to the left of the entrance, then buy your party some new 
armor and stock up on supplies. When your through, head outside and find 
Tata's house.

Enter the house and talk to the boy standing under the stairs. He'll tell you 
that he 'found' the medal that everyone is talking about, and that he is not a 
hero. Feeling ashamed, he will hand the medal over to your party. With the 
medal in hand, its time to visit the Cursed Woods. To find the woods, head 
northwest of Tata's house.

Upon entering the forest, defeat the group of T'poles and Gnawers that attack, 
then take the Mid Tonic from its chest to the right. Continue north to find 
another chest containing a Shelter. Take it and fight any enemies that may 
attack. After destroying all the enemies in the area, head to the back of the 
forest where a lone, rustling bush lies. 

Enter from the back side of it to find a hidden room. When you enter the room, 
Frog will greet you, then talk about how he can't defeat Magus because he does 
not have the Legendary Masamune. He will then tell you to leave, but instead, 
inspect the sparkling object where he was standing. It turns out to be the 
other part of the Masamune you need. Upon further examination, Lucca finds 
Melchior inscribed on it (Can you guess where we are heading next?). So, once 
your party is ready, talk to Frog again, then head back up the ladder. To exit 
the woods, move directly south defeating any attacking enemies and you will 
reach the World Map.

On the World Map, head north around the Cursed Woods and back up to Zenan 
Bridge. Cross the bridge, then head east back to Truce Canyon. When you reach

Inside the hut, talk to Melchior and he will be surprised that you have the 
sword. He'll then tell you that you need some Dreamstone to repair it. To get 
the stone, we will need to travel back in time. So, when he is finished 
talking, go back to the villagers cabinet you came out of to get back to The 
End of Time.

When you reach The End of Time, head to the bottom most circle to be 
transported to 65,000,000 B.C.

As soon as you enter this time period, your party is dropped down a massive 
cliff, only to find a group of Reptites waiting at the bottom. Finish them off 
and another wave of them will rush in. Before you can do much more, a cave-
girl (who you will soon meet) named Ayla, will bash a couple of them out of 
the way. You will be forced to fight another 4 of these guys, so quickly 
defeat them. Once the battle is over, Ayla will jump back onto the screen and 
introduce herself. Afterwords, your party and Ayla will have a short 
conversation about where you came from. Once its through, Ayla will invite you 
to her village to eat, dance, and drink. Take her up on the offer and follow 
her off the screen. In this next area, follow her south and pick up the 
Berserker from the chest. Now, continue the path south defeating any enemies 
along the way, to reach the World Map.

Once you reach the World Map, to find Ayla's village head northeast. You'll 
want to go to the Cheif's Hut, but before you do, check out the other small 
huts to heal and buy items (to buy items you need stuff like petals, to 
trade). When your set, enter the Cheif's Hut (the northwest hut) and speak to 
Ayla who will take you to the party at the Meeting Place.

At the party, your group will introduced, then welcomed with some dancing. 
Once you gain control of Crono, move left and talk to Ayla, your other party 
members, and the dancers. When your through speaking to everyone, talk to Ayla 
again to hear her story about the Red Rock (which is the Dreamstone). To win 
it, Ayla wants you to challenge her to a soup drinking contest. In order to 
win, press A as fast as you can in the given time. Upon beating her, she will 
hand over the stone and the screen will fade to black.

When you see Crono again, it will be morning time and your party will be 
crashed out on the ground. Once he wakes the others, your group will notice 
some footprints and that the Gate Key is missing! Afterwords, you'll 
automatically be in the Cheif's Hut where Ayla is taking a snooze. Wake her up 
and she will tell you that it was the Reptites that stole the key. You'll have 
to pick one last group member to go with you, so choose whoever you want. Once 
you've done so, head south and out of the hut.

Now, when you reach the World Map, head to the southeastern most hut and speak 
to the man inside. He will give you a Tonic. When you get the Tonic, finish 
talking to the people in the hut, then exit. When your on the World Map again, 
move to the hut to the left of you and enter. Inside talk to the people to 
learn that the Reptites went to the Forest Maze. So, exit the hut and head 
south to the huge forest, to reach the Forest Maze.

==============================================================================

============

When you enter the maze, head right and talk to the boy standing there. His 
name is Kino and Ayla will begin to question him on where Crono's stuff went. 
He'll admit to taking Crono's things, but then he will tell you that the 
Reptites took them. Ayla will then order him to go back and protect the 
village. Once you gain control of Crono, head right and take the Mid Tonic 
from the chest. Once you've done so, head down the vine to the right and 
southward to the chest below. Before you can reach it though, a group of Gold 
Eaglets will attack. Finish them and take the Revive from the chest.

Now, head down the vine northeast of you and head across the tree stump to the 
right. After crossing the stump, head south, take the Mid Tonic from the 
chest, then move north and take the Mid Ether from its chest. Afterwards, head 
east then south where a Winged Ape will confront you. Make quick work of him 
then head south and take the Revive from the chest on the left. Once you get 
the Revive, go east again, then south a little ways to find another chest. 
Open it to find a Shelter. Once you've done so, move east and around the bend 
which will lead to the west (kinda confusing). Follow the bend until a set of 
two Runners attacks. Destroy them and keep heading west around the bend to 
find another Mid Tonic in a chest.

Now, head north and fight the Kilwala and Winged Ape that attack. Once they're 
done with, move southwest to find a Heal hidden in a chest betwen two trees. 
Once you have the Heal, head south down the vine to the east, then follow the 
path east to find a Mid Ether waiting for you in a chest. After finding it, 
follow the path back to the west to reach the World Map.

On the World Map, move south to the large rock structure which is the Reptite 
Lair, then enter.

==============================================================================

==============================================================================

============

Upon arriving here, head right and into the cave opening. Here, head south, 
down the little set of stairs, and fight the group of Evilweevil's that 
attack. After you beat them, hop into the southern hole that appears. Now grab 
the chest containing the Mid Ether and destroy the nearby enemies. When 
they're finished, jump into the nearby hole to reach a new area.

After jumping into the hole, clear this room of enemies and take the Full 
Tonic from its chest. Once you've finished them, head into the nearby hole to 
reach a room full of Reptites. Finish the ones running around the middle of 
the room, then head south west to find a Reptite guarding a chest. Start a 
fight with him and he will call a Megasaur in for back-up (Use *Lightning on 
him to easily destroy him). Quickly finish them both and retrive the Rock Helm 
from the chest. Then, head north to find another Reptite guarding a chest. 
Destroy him and his Megasaur friend, then take the Full Ether from its chest.

Once you've done so, head right and into the cave opening to reach a new area. 
Here, a Shitake and Winged Ape will immediatly attack. Finish them with ease 
and then head north to find another group of the same enemies. After 
destroying these guys, move north and fight the enemies standing near the 
flight of stairs (do not go into the cave opening to the north of where you 
entered this room, as it will only lead you back to the beggining of the 
Lair). Once they are done with, a save point will appear to the right. I 
suggest saving here and using a Shelter because you are about to fight a boss. 
Anyways, once your through head up the stairs to the north.

When you reach the top, your party will find Azala standing in the center of 
the room. Your group will question him then ask about the key. Before he 
answers, he will try to get away by calling his pet Nizbel, to come and fight.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Nizbel
HP: 4200
Weakness: Lightning
Charm: Third Eye
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This guy may look big, but he is not to difficult at all. Your first order of 
buisness should be to have Crono use *Lightning on him. This will greatly 
lower his defense making regular attacks cause good damage. After casting 
*Lightning though, try using Drill Kick and Volt Bite to cause big damage. Be 
careful of his attacks though and heal with Tonics or Aura Whirl (thats if 
Marle is in your party) if your HP's fall below 100. Other than that, just 
repeat the process to win.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After this somewhat easy battle, Azala will panic and drop the Gate Key. He'll 
then say that Reptites will rule forever and run off. You will then appear 
back inside the Cheif's Hut talking to Ayla. She will thank you for coming and 
then ask you to return sometime. After saying goodbye, head back outside and 
into the Weapons/Armor shop, which is the hut to the east of you. Inside, make 
sure you buy the best weapons and armor available. Once your ready, head back 
to Mystic Mountain which should lie southwest of the hut you just exited.

When you enter the mountain, move north following the path you did before. 
Defeat any enemies in your path and head into the next area. Here, head 
northwest to reach the peak of the mountain. Run around the side of it and 
jump off to reach the warp, which will take you back to The End of Time.

Once you reach The End of Time, take the warp that leads to Medina Village

When you arrive, you will once again pop out of the villagers cabinet. Exit 
the house and head southwest to reach Melchior's Hut.

Inside, talk to Melchior who is standing near the window. He will see that you 
have the Dreamstone and be completly shocked. He'll then tell you that he will 
fix the Masamune and will then proceed into the basement. Follow him down and 
wait while he prepares the sword. Once it's complete, you will all go upstairs 
where Melchior will give you the fully restored Masamune. With this in hand, I 
think it's time to pay Frog another visit!

So, exit the hut and go back to the villagers home you warped here from. Warp 
back to The End of Time by hopping into the cabinet. Once there, head into the 
warp that leads to Truce Canyon 600 A.D. Upon arriving in the canyon, follow 
the simplistic path out while defeating the super weak enemies.

Now, on the World Map, head south then west then south again, until you reach 
the Zenan Bridge. Pass the bridge by moving south, then head southeast and 
around the forest until you find the entrance, which will lead to the Cursed 
Woods.

When you get here, move north to the back of the forest while destroying any 
enemies in your path. Once you reach the lone bush again, enter it from the 
back to reach Frog's home.

Inside his home, talk to Frog and give him the Masamune. He will be surprised 
and will then tell you to wait there for the night while he thinks about the 
'events' that happened. During the night, you will see a dream/flashback of 
Glenn and Cyrus fighting Magus and Ozzie for the first time. Anyway, in the 
morning, Frog will wake you and decide to join you. He has to be in your group 
at this point, so pick one other person to use. Once your ready head back up 
the ladder to reach the woods. Here, continue south defeating the enemies, 
until you reach the World Map.

Now, there a couple things we need to do before moving on. First, head east to 
the Market and pick Frog up a Gold Suit. Once you have done that, we need to 
head back to The End of Time to teach Frog how to use magic. So, since you 
should now know the path back to The End of Time from here pretty well, I 
won't go into detail on how to get back again. Just go back through Truce 
Canyon and enter the warp.

When you reach The End of Time, move south into the room where the old guy is, 
then head into the door north of him. Inside, talk to Spekkio and he will 
grant Frog the ability to use *Water magic. You can fight Spekkio again after 
you get the magic, but it's not mandatory. So, once Frog has his magic, head 
back into the Truce Canyon 600 A.D. warp.

Upon arriving here, head through the canyon to the World Map. Once there, head 
southwest then south to pass the Zenan Bridge. Now, head east until you see 
Fiona's Villa. To the right of her Villa is a lone mountain. Walk up to it and 
it will be the Magic Cave, which is your next destination.

When you reach the cave, Frog will inspect the wall and then have another 
flashback. Once it's through, he will destroy the wall with the power of the 
Masamune (pretty cool, huh?). When your party enters, fight the group of 
enemies to the right, then head east. From there, move north and defeat the 
group of enemies blocking the path. After the battle, a group of rats will run 
east off the screen. So, follow them around the bend and destroy them all. 
Once that's through, head up the stairs to the north and inspect the fallen 
soldier at the top. He has a note written in blood warning you of the Juggler 
enemy in Magus's Lair. After reading the note move north to reach the 
overworld.

Here, I strongly suggest using a Shelter and saving your game before entering, 
because this place is tough. Whenever your ready though, head north to enter 
Magus's Lair.

============

When you get here, move north and Frog will tell you that your at Magus's 
Castle (duh). Once he's through, head north into the castle. Inside, head 
north then take a left at the intersection. Here, talk to the people standing 
around, then take the Mid Ether from the chest to the north. Once you have it, 
head north into the next room. Continue north and take the Mid Ether and 
Shelter from there chests. Once you get these items, move south through the 
rooms you came from, to reach the intersection again. Now, once you get here 
head right instead of left. 

Once you've done so, talk to the kids surronding the chest, then proceed north 
into the next room. In this room, you'll notice some familiar looking people 
walking around. Talk to them and grab the Mid Ether from its chest to the 
north, while continuing into the next room. Upon entering you'll notice there 
is nothing here, so head south and back through the rooms to reach the 
intersection at the beginning of the castle.

When you finally arrive, you'll notice there is a save point by the window. 
Move towards it and Ozzie will appear only to mock Frog. Once he leaves, he'll 
set a fair sized group of enemies to fight you. Destroy them and then move 
west into the corridor (again). Here, head north and fight the Skeletons 
circling the room. Once they're finished, move north to find another set of 
them standing around. Destroy them with ease, then go north into the next 
room.

Now, talk to the lady in the center of the room and the people around her will 
turn into Decedents. Finish them all and Slash will appear in the center of 
the room. Before talking to him, make sure everyone is fully healed and ready 
to go. When your ready talk to him to start a battle.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Slash
HP: 5200
Weakness: None
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I suggest having a party of Crono, Frog, and Robo since you should have their 
Triple Tech 'Triple Raid' by now. If you do not have this party, don't worry 
you should still be alright. Anyways, when the battle begins, use Triple Raid 
or any regular attacks to cause good damage. Heal when necessary with your 
third party member so your other members can still attack. Once you do enough 
damage he will grab his sword off the wall. This is when the real fight 
begins. Continue to pound away on him with Triple Raid, X-Strike, SwordStream, 
or any other good techs. Watch out for some of his moves though, as they can 
take over 100 HP off you. If that happens, heal immediatly with Mid Tonics, 
Aura Whirl, or anything else useful. Also, near the end of the fight he will 
start saying "yes indeed!" meaning he is going to hit you harder and faster. 
Just be ready to heal when this happens, so none of your party members die. 
Keep attacking and using techs and you should finish the battle.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once you defeat him, take the Slasher sword from the ground and equip it on 
Crono. Then, heal by using a Shelter at the save point that appeared. Remember 
to save your game also, then head south back through the rooms to reach the 
intersection near the beginning of the Lair.

At the intersection, head east to the corridor on the other side. When you 
reach this area, once again, head north and talk to the boys guarding the 
treasure chest. Tell them you want their treasure and they will transform into 
Shadows. Defeat them all by using magic, then take the Barrier item out of the 
chest and head north into the next room. 

Here, go around talking to all the familiar faces and defeating the enemies 
that they will transform into. Once you have cleared the room, move north into 
the final room where Flea lies. Before talking to him, make sure everyone is 
healed and ready to go. When your ready, speak to him and get ready to enter 
another boss battle.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Flea
HP: 4120
Weakness: None
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Flea shouldn't be as hard as Slash was and she has less HP. Also, the first 
part of the fight you aren't fighting the real Flea yet, you're just fighting 
a fake. So, use regular attacks to kill her quickly, but be extremely careful 
because whoever delivers the final hit that will kill the fake, will lose all 
their MP. Now, once its dead, start the real battle off by using strong techs 
like Triple Raid, SwordStream, X-Strike, and anything else good. Continue 
pounding away on her with everything you have, but make sure you keep an eye 
on your HP. Another thing you should look out for, is her attack 'Waltz of 
Wind' which will put one of your characters in Chaos. When this happens, cure 
them quickly so they wont attack your party. Keep on attacking and using 
strong techs and she will eventually fall leaving you to win the battle.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When the fight is through, pick up the Magic Tab that appears on the ground 
where Flea once stood. Once you get it, head all the way south back to the 
intersection at the front of the castle.

Upon getting there, you should notice that another save point has appeared by 
the window. So, walk into it to get warped to another section of the castle. 
In this new area, head north following the basic path while defeating the 
enemies along the way. At the end of the path, take the Mist Robe from its 
chest on the right, then speak to Ozzie. He will call for reinforcements 
(which were the two bosses you just defeated) but nobody will show. He will 
then run off into the room to the north, where you should follow him to.

Here, you will see a set of conveyor belts with gullotines slamming down on 
each one. To get through, hop onto the first conveyor belt and slide under the 
gullotine. Move right then south onto the next belt and cross it. At the 
bottom, grab the Dark Mail from the chest and equip it on Frog. Now, continue 
along the belts avoiding the gullotines until you reach the end. Before you 
can talk to Ozzie, though, he will run away again. So, take the DoomFinger 
from the chest to the left of the door (which you should equip on Robo) then 
head north into the next room.

In this room, you will be in a side view, old-school Donkey Kong style, type 
room. Begin by heading north defeating the enemies in your path. Continue 
moving north defeating any Roly's or anything else in your path until you 
reach the top. At the top, head north and into the next room where you will 
see Ozzie waiting by a crank, on right side of the room. Move south and Ozzie 
will turn the crank, causing a trap door in the floor to appear, which your 
party will fall into.

At the bottom, you will be left to fight six decedents. Finish them all, then 
head to the bottom right side of the room to find a sparkling object. Inspect 
it for a Magic Tab, then head directly north to find a Shelter and Barrier 
residing in the two chests. After that, head directly west to find a Lapis and 
Mid Ether in another set of two chests. Now, you should have noticed that 
there are save points all around the room. One of them is a save point, one of 
them warps you to the next area, and the rest of them are enemies. So, find 
the correct save point and use a Shelter and save your game, then find the one 
that will warp you to the next area.

Once you find the warp, you will be back in Ozzie's 'Trap Door' room. Follow 
the path south and around the door you fell in and Ozzie will spring another 
trap door. The room that you fall into is the same room you were in before, so 
use the warp again to reach the trap door room. When your back in the room, 
carefully follow the path to Ozzie, so you don't fall down again. Once you 
reach him he will run away once again. So, head north into the next room.

You will be back in another Donkey Kong style type room filled with enemies. 
Head north defeating them all until you reach the top, where you should head 
into the next room. Here, move north and four cranes will bring up some 
enemies for you to fight. Destroy them and continue north repeating this 
process until you finally reach Ozzie. He will run away yet again, so take the 
Speed Belt out of the chest then follow him north. In this room, keep going 
north while defeating any enemies in your path. Near the end, grab the Revive 
out of the chest, then continue north into the next room.

Hear you will FINALLY reach Ozzie. Before you talk to him grab the Mist Robe 
and MagicScarf from the two chests in the room. Once you have done so, speak 
to Ozzie to enter battle with him. In battle, he will create an ice barrier 
around him causing him to counter-attack any time you attack. So, what you 
want to do is hit each of the 4 cranes around him to cause him to go falling 
down. Once he is done with, use the right save to recover and record your 
progress, then step into the left one to get warped to another area. Now, 
before you go, I STRONGLY suggest having a party of Crono, Frog, and Robo. 
Also make sure that your party is at least lvl. 23 or higher, or you might 
have some trouble with this next boss. When your ready, head into the warp on 
the right.

In this area, make a mad dash to the left running all the way down the stairs 
into the room at the bottom (if you run fast enough the Vamps, or bats, won't 
have time to catch you). In the room, you will hear voices of some sort. Head 
north along the flame-lit path and you will find Magus at the end. After some 
talk, he will challenge your party to a fight.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Magus
HP: 6666
Weakness: None
Charm: N/A
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Be ready for a battle, because this fight is by far the hardest you've been in 
yet! Before you start fighting him, you need to know that he has a magic 
barrier up. This barrier will only let a certain type of magic hit him at a 
time (lightning, fire, water, etc.). For him to change it, you will have to 
attack him. Also, every time Frog attacks, Magus's defense will lower because 
of the Masamune. With that said, start out by having everyone attack the first 
round so you can see what barrier he has up. Once you know, use the magic type 
you need to, and continue attacking him. Keep a close eye on your Hit Points 
too, since he counter-attacks everytime you attack him. If you need to heal 
use Mid Tonics, *Heal (Frog's Tech), Heal Beam (Robo's Tech), or Aura Whirl. 
Watch out for some of his nastier moves also, like Dark Matter which can take 
huge amounts of HP off your whole party. Just continue pounding on him with 
Triple Raid, Spire, *Lightning2 (if the barrier permits),or any other good 
techs. Once you cause enough damage, he will fall and your party will win.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After this tough battle, the flames around you will go out and Magus will 
kneel in defeat. He will speak a little, but before long the huge monster he 
summoned, named Lavos, will send your party flying into a gravitational warp.

When your party enters the warp, after the fight with Magus, you will see a 
dream sequence with Crono and Marle. Once it's through, you'll be awoken by 
Ayla inside the Cheif's Hut. She will then tell you that she found you guys by 
Mystic Mountain and carried you all back to the hut. After some more talk, she 
will tell you to rest and then leave the room.

In the morning, Kino will come and speak to your party. In the middle of 
talking he will be interrupted by somebody, saying that the woods are on fire. 
Once you gain control of Crono, head outside and to the trading hut to buy the 
best equipment for your party. When your through, head in a northwest 
direction (you will have to pass through the Meeting Site) to reach your next 
destination, the Laruba Ruins.

Here, head to the back to see Ayla talking to the Old Man. The Old Man is mad 
that the Reptites destroyed the village and will yell at Ayla. Once they are 
finished talking and Ayla leaves, follow her out of here to the south.

On the World Map again, head south and around the bend to find the Dactyl's 
Nest.

When you enter this area, defeat the nearby enemies and continue north until 
you reach two Avian Rex's. Destroy them and climb the wall that is north of 
you. Take the Mid Ether out of the chest to the right, then proceed south 
until you confront a set of Shist's. Quickly finish them and take the Mid 
Tonic from its chest which lies southeast of you. Once you've done so, 
continue north and up the wall to reach the next area.

Here, defeat the enemies next to you, then head directly north and up the  
sets of walls. After reaching the top of the second wall, head around the bend 
and to the south to find yet another group of enemies waiting to ambush you. 
Finish them and head east, grabbing the Meso Mail out of the chest, then going 
north up the nearby wall. At the top, move north a little ways to get ambushed 
by a set of Avian Rex's. Destroy them with ease then head north into the next 
area.

Upon entering here, you will see a scene where Ayla calls a Dactyl down. Once 
it's through, head north and speak to her. She will be surprised to see you 
and then she will call another set of Dactyl's down, so your party can get to 
the Tyrano Lair. Choose your third party member wisely, then, once you gain 
control of the Dactyl's, head southeast to find a tower lying on a hill. Land 
the birds, then save your game and heal. When your ready, enter the Tyrano 
Lair.

When you enter the Lair, begin by defeating the Cave Apes and the Reptite, 
then proceed into the right 'opened skull'. Follow the path until you reach 
two Reptites guarding an entrance to a jail cell. Finish them both, then hit 
the switch next to the door to free the prisoners. Afterwards, head east then 
north to find another set of Reptites guarding a stairwell. Finish them both 
with ease, then head down the stairs and into the next room.

When you reach this room, head south and find the group of Reptites standing 
near the cell. Confront and defeat them, then, head near the cell door to find 
Kino trapped behind it. Ayla will then jump in the cell and the two will have 
a little conversation. Once it's through, Kino will tell you that he wants to 
show you something, then he will run off. Before you follow him though, take 
the Mid Ether from its chest in the cell, then exit the room.

Follow Kino all the way back to the first room with the two skulls. Here, Kino 
will open the left skull allowing you to pass through. After he has left, 
proceed pass the skull and up the staircase to the north. Now, when you reach 
the top of the stairs, start by heading east then south (hit the switch if you 
don't want to fight the nearby enemies). On the balcony, defeat the Volcano's 
and the Avian Rex that attack (more enemies will attack after the fight). When 
they're finished, head into the room on the right. 

Inside, take only the chest on the left to receive a Full Tonic. Opening the 
other chest will result in a 'pit' trap where you will have to fight some 
enemies. So, once you get the Tonic, head back to the room with the switches. 
Now, this time you will want to go west and into the next area. When there, 
defeat the Reptites walking around and the Avian Rex that will attack 
afterwards. Once they're all defeated, head into the room on the left.

In this room, you will see a tile walkway. Just to let you know, this room is 
very aggrevating. You are going to have to warp around the room to find the 
exit and you might have to fight enemies along the way. There are also four 
items in this room, which are a Tonic, Revive, Meso Mail, and a CeraTopper. 
So, since there is no real way for me to describe this room in detail and for 
you to understand it, just try your best to get the items and to reach the 
exit.

Once you exit the tile room, head south to reach another balcony. Here, follow 
the path east defeating any enemies that attack you along the way. At the end 
of the path to the very east, head north and into the room. Inside, you will 
see two switches and a skull in the back. Step on the right one to open the 
skull (stepping on the left one will result in the skull opening, but you will 
also have to fight a group of enemies). Once it's open, head north and press 
the switch on the wall. Now, head back onto the balcony (defeat any attacking 
enemies) and enter the center room that was once blocked off.

In this area, talk to the creature blocking the path, and he will let you 
through. Pass him, then save/heal at the savepoint. When your healed and 
ready, head north and up the stairs, but before you can go, Nizbel II will 
stop you and want to fight!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: Nizbel II
HP: 4200
Weakness: Lightning
Charm: Third Eye
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The fight against this guy should'nt be too hard at all. Have Crono start out 
by casting *Lightning2 on him to greatly lower his defense. Once it is 
lowered, pound away on him with regular attacks and Crono and Ayla's dual 
tech, Volt Bite. Doing this will cause a good amount of damage. Careful 
though, because he might release his 'electrical energy' to cause big damage 
to your entire party. If that happens use Frog's *Heal tech. Just continue to 
attack and use *Lightning magic to defeat him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once you have defeated Nizbel II, heal and save again at the savepoint, then 
head north and up the stairs. Here, head south to reach yet another balcony. 
Outside on the balcony, head all the way to the east while defeating any 
enemies in your way. At the end, enter the room to the north. Inside, hit the 
top most switch to make a savepoint appear. Once you have done that, approach 
the skull and hit A to open it. Now, head north and hit the switch ahead, take 
the Full Ether from it's chest, then save your game and exit the room.

Back on the balcony, enter the center room that was once blocked (again, 
defeat any enemies that confront you). Inside this area, head north to find 
Azala sitting in his King's chair. He'll begin to talk to you, but will be 
interupted by a huge roaring sound. He will then leave the room to the north, 
but before you follow him, take the two nearby chests that contain a 
CeraTopper and a Mid Ether.

Now, make sure you're fully healed and ready, then follow the path that Azala 
took to the north to find the Black Tyrano.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Boss: BlackTyrano, Azala
HP: BlackTyrano - 10500, Azala - 2700
Weakness: None
Charm: Magic Tab
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Start out this battle by taking out Azala first. Doing so will allow you to 
focus all your attention on the BlackTyrano. To easily destroy him, use Crono 
and Frog's Spire dual tech, about 2-3 times. Once he is done with, he will 
use an HP Break attack on your characters, which will slowly wittle away at 
your HP (like poison). Now, do not attack the Tyrano with everything you have 
just yet. Use only your regular attacks on him until a message says that he 
has lowered his defense to power up for an attack. When this happens, unload 
on him with everything you have. *Lightning2, Spire, Volt Bite, and anything 
else will all do good amounts of damage. Careful though, because when his 
countdown reaches zero, he will use a strong fire attack on your whole party. 
Heal immediatly after he uses this attack so none of your characters die. So, 
just repeat this wait, attack, and heal process until he is defeated.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After this battle is over, the BlackTyrano will fall and Azala will crawl out. 
He will speak to you for a little bit, then it will show a scene where Lavos 
is coming towards earth. Once it's done, Kino will land on the bridge with 
some Dactyl's, and your party will board them as Lavos comes crahing down. 
After a huge explosion and another short scene, your party will be outside the 
Lair Ruins. Save and heal, then enter the ruins to find a warp leading to 
12,000 B.C.

============

You actually don't start out in the Skyway, but rather in a cave. Exit the 
cave to the south to reach the World Map. You'll be in an icy, frozen over 
world. Anyways, head southeast to find a multi-colored building, which is the 
Skyway.

Enter the building and then step onto the futuristic looking circle to get 
transported to a city high above the clouds. Here, move east onto the building 
to find Enhasa.
