Dead Sea (Freeze)

Inquiry

Why is the Dead Sea frozen?

Answer

This question arises out of comparing the Dead Sea to Chronopolis; both reflect the same era, though one is animated time passes within it. This is a difficult question, and presently, only one theory exists. FATE, having power to destroy the Dead Sea (see farther down in this article), can possibly also freeze it via an effect similar to that of a Time Egg (as in Chrono Trigger's Time Freeze), and does so to prevent it from interfering with the present day world outside the Sea of Eden. Otherwise, perhaps the anomalistic nature simply causes it to be frozen.
