The Darkness Beyond Time is the void beyond time and existence themselves. I have originally planned to insert this in the Main Cosmology section, but given how complex this part is, I've decided to put it at the end, after explaining what the Cosmology and Dreams are. So in short, dreams are the basis of reality itself, from where all timelines, time itself and even concepts as love and hate originate from, and destroying them essentially means ending existence. Last proof is the Dream Devourer being said to be able to destroy all the existence, and its first attack is literally of devouring dreams, enforcing once again dreams being what makes existence. If you have read the "Space-Time" section of this blog, which is the one on the top, in the part where is talked about the size of the cosmology and its infinite timelines you would have noticed that Orlha's sister has seen all the timelines in her dream, and that Radical Dreams Serge has seen all the timelines, all the dreams and the beginning and end of time itself in a huge sea, which would obviously be Zurvan. Turnip, a dream being, after Schala's speech about dreams, says about "seeing you back in Dreamland", which quite of leads as well that the whole of Chrono Cross was always just in a dream. Other proofs are that truth ( or even the universe as said in the Japanese version) is contained in dreams, Nightmares are monsters without substance which can't be interacted with and viceversa and that the Dreamseeker, the strongest weapon Crono can get in the game, is forged out of dreams. It should be noted that the Dreamstone has existed before mankind, as it doesn't exist anymore in any era which isn't the prehistoric one, with Ayla describing it as a powerful object, other than it being known already from the ancestors of men. The Dreamstone holds dreams, and has created concepts such as love and hate. Going back to Chrono Trigger, Earth is confirmed to be indeed alive, as it was the one sending the aforementioned Dinopolis back in time to counter Chronopolis. However, that was also the beginning of a new nightmare… The time-transcending final battle between dragons, humans, and destiny that surrounding the legendary treasure, the Frozen Flame, had begun… The dream of the planet is not yet over… The dream of the planet repelled the darkness and birthed a new future. It doesn't appear in the prehistory, which is 65'000'000 B.C., as it's when Lavos has first approached the Earth, thus the Black Omen can't access said era. and 600 A.C through time travel, with the Black Omen always remaining at the same position. This explains why the Black Omen can be accessed from the 1000 A.C., 12000 B.C., 2300 A.C.

This proves that the amount of timelines in the Chrono series cosmology is infinite due to infinite possibilities existing and universes existing for each of them, giving a reason on why endings in Chrono Trigger exist as alternate timelines, and this reflects on Radical Dreamers and Chrono Cross various endings for the same reason as result.Īdditional information on the space-time nature of the Chrono series is that multiple temporal dimensions were mentioned in the Raw Japanese, with the Black Omen flowing across them and different time periods, existing also outside time itself. this world is not one.Just like our own thoughts, sister, so are the infinite possibilities. Starting with one of the endings of Chrono Trigger, especially the most recent ports which started from the DS version, Magus of another timeline said that there are as many world as potentialities. It's necessary to know that in the Chrono series, each possibility and alternate event is its own timeline. The first and most important part of what's being discussed here are the timelines. Credits also to the Chrono Compendium website as it's the source of a lot of scans and translations I'll be using here.
