Chronology
*** by a point means that a footnote is provided at the end of the timeline. '-' means that an event succeeds everything above it, while a series of '*'s mean that it is unknown which event occurred before the other. '-U-' means that this event is dated according to Ultimania, a flawed guide for Chrono Cross written in Japan that may nonetheless have some credibility. =>Pre-65000000 B.C. -Nu mysteriously exist. *Two sentient races evolve -- Reptites and Humans. *Ioka and Laruba are established; Tyran Fortress is also built. *Reptites begin to wage war on humans for control of the planet. -Kino appears on Mystic Mountain. =>65000000 B.C. -Nu reside at the Hunting Grounds. -The Ioka tribe chiefly fights the reptites; the Laruba clan hides. -Crono's party warps in from 1000 A.D. to find Dreamstone. -Crono's party meets Ayla, who throws a celebration for them. -Crono receives Dreamstone by defeating Ayla in a soup-eating contest. -Dreamstone is stolen by Kino, then Reptites; it is retrieved in their forest maze lair along with the Gate key. -Reptite attacks subside. -Crono's party warps back to 1000 A.D. to have Melchior repair the Masamune. -Crono's party warps in from the Magus battle in 600 A.D. to Mystic Mountain. -Laruba village is burned to the ground, and Kino is taken hostage. -Crono's party goes to the Tyrano lair and defeats Azala, while freeing Kino. -Azala predicts the fall of Lavos, though clearly does not summon him. -Lavos lands on the planet. -A piece of Lavos splinters off during the crash; this comes to be known as the Frozen Flame. -Lavos is named by Ayla. La means fire, Vos means big. -Lavos burrows and begins absorbing the planet's energy. -Crono's party warps to 12000 B.C. through a gate created by Lavos' impact. -Crono's party returns from 12000 B.C. after the prophet seals the gate. -Crono's party warps to 2300 A.D. to the Keeper's Dome. -Crono's party warps in from 2300 A.D. and places the Sun stone in Sun Keep. -Crono's party warps to different time periods, and determines the Stone was stolen in or before 1000 A.D. -Crono's party warps to 1000 A.D. to recover the Sun stone. =>65000000 B.C. To 12000 B.C. -An Ice Age sets in due to the impact of Lavos. -Reptites die from the Ice Age; humans retreat underground, while some use and cultivate elemental magic to create Zeal. -Plots of ground are raised to form Zeal; the Sun Palace is built to house the Sun Stone. Elemental weapons are sealed in a blue pyramid. -Humans that are not innate magic users as evolved by Lavos are able to use magic through the Sun Stone and/or other elemental powers. =>3000000 B.C. -Humans presumably come into contact with the Frozen Flame, sparking evolution and most likely the ability of humans to employ magic. =>Pre-12000 B.C. *Belthasar, or perhaps, if they exist, his guru predecessors, creates secret rooms in Enhasa and Kajar. *Schala is born. -Janus is born. -The Mammon Machine is built out of Dreamstone by the gurus, and possibly uses the Frozen Flame. -The pendant that controls sealed doors and the Mammon Machine is created out of dreamstone by the gurus either before or after the construction of the Mammon Machine. *Sealed doors are forged, and controlled only by the power of Lavos channeled through the pendant. *The Sun Stone is discontinued as Zeal's primary power source. *Belthasar designs the Ocean Palace and Blackbird. *King Zeal dies; the Queen takes the throne. *Magic tabs are invented by a resident of Zeal living in Kajar. -Dalton is placed in charge of the completion of the Ocean Palace. -Slave labor by the Earthbound is used at the Ocean Palace. =>12000 B.C. -The Guardia line is first seen here in the Elder of Algetty, the Earthbound cave. *Masamune is forged out of Dreamstone and Melchior's dreams. *The Seed of Life is given to a woman by Melchior. -Magus warps in from 600 A.D. and becomes a false prophet, hoping to gain revenge on Lavos once more.

Note that this accident could be an explosion set by Norris to destroy Grobyc's level seven tech, the StrongArm. However, this may have taken place in either dimension as well, which would explain how an intact arm resides at Chronopolis. =>1010 A.D. -Wazuki attempts to kill Serge, thus totally losing it in the process and becoming Lynx. -The dimensions split depending on the outcome (see Home, Another timelines). -Home/Another splitting is possibly caused by Kid's time traveling and the gravity of Serge's life/death on the continued existence of reality, which is threatened by the Time Devourer.
