History, Locations, and Artifacts / The enlightened = the mystics?
« on: April 12, 2006, 09:26:05 pm »
From what we see there is no signs of the mystics before 600AD, but they are at roughly the same technological level. This means that they developed along side Humans some, but evolved soon after... they seem to share the one quality that the enlightened ones have over humans as well...Magic.

This leads me to believe one conclusion...mystics are the descendants of the enlightened ones.

Characters, Plot, and Themes / Lucca and the Gurus
« on: April 12, 2006, 09:01:44 pm »
It occurs to me that Lucca is not only too far advance for her time, but also acts in a way that seems to make it appear that she knows more than she lets on.

She not only grasps the situation almost imediately, she creates the gate key in a very short amount of time. She also is obviously responable for buildng the first robots, which is Gato, and later we see this model only appear in Black Omen that was designed and built by the Gurus. She has amazingly high levels of technology considering the computers are in no way shape or form even close to being invented.

Further more she starts off with elemental magic, unlike any others. Not only that but a gate opens convienently to her mother's accident when she thinks about it. Some may say this is because of "the entity" over hearing what's happening, but then it's got to be asked why Lucca and why such an insignificant event?

Strangely enough this also happens one other time in the game, during the Reunion ending when Gespar opens a portal to give them the time egg, showing that he has power over the gates.

Lucca shows almost uncanny lack of reaction to a lot of the things that happen when she would be one of the most likely to be getting giddy as she would have the chance to explore the thing she loves, technology and science, but instead she seems to know exactly how to and when to do things.

We also know that Balthasar influenced, nay, triggered the events of CC, and he had long finished the epoch and would have had more than ample time to go back and set up certain events, but him not beng a warrior would not have been able to change things by himself. He and Gespar both show 2 things which lead me to believe that they influenced CT as well. They show a knowledge of things that they, even if they did time travel and watch time, would never know and also they were the only ones that were capable of setting up the sealed items.

Given this, Lucca seems to be working with the Gurus, and she is in a great position to relay information and trigger certain events. This seems to be proven simply by the sheer technology level of Lucca which is on par with Zeal and far more advanced than 2400AD which is just impossable given that Lucca's inventions would have been all throughout that era and much more advanced.

Another thing that may be just a coincidence is that Lucca, Crono, and Glenn. All of which seem to have been pretty much hand picked for this adventure have Purple, Red, and Green hair which none of the other characters in the game have those colors. This could be due to genetic alterations done to them by Gespar and Balthasar to make them stronger. Note that Crono is the strongest and balanced, Glenn is the only person to be able to wield the masamune from what we understand, and lucca is not only super intelligent but also xtremely magically powerful.

Balthasar had the oportunity and the reason to do it as did Gespar. Lucca could have been Balthasar's protegee, and it's just kept secret..She afterall later helps with the Kid project with could very well be an extension of this project. It even makes sense with the title. these events trigger CC events.

Time, Space, and Dimensions / Marle's dissapearance...
« on: April 12, 2006, 07:47:40 pm »
After a few days of reading all this information and such... I noticed that noone mentioned the obviousness of why might Marle be shunted out temporarily.

There is Time Error Protection answer...

Let's say Marle goes into the past...She is there for at least 1/2 a day the way that she looks and everyone acts before Crono gets there. In that time an order sent throughout the kingdom to stop the search. It obviously takes a bit of time for the message to reach them. The search is not called off and Leene still has a chance at being rescued until everyone knows she is back. This is why Leene doesn't disapear right away. That explains that...but why does she dissapear in the first place? and why isn't Crono and Lucca effected?

It's simple when you look at it from preserving a stable timeline (one that doesn't destroy itself) It is because time does not change because marle is there but rather that time will be destroyed if she is. If marle dissapears, the search is restored and Leene is found and time goes on as if it never happened, but also if it doesn't happen Nadia is born and it does happen. This in effect is why Marle needs to be temporarily deleted or placed in a different place for time being. This would in effect show Temporal Protection of the universe. This is also why Marle reappears after Leene is found because then both can exist without problems.

Crono and Lucca are ineffected because they are not causing instabilities in the timeline and so no reason for it.

It has nothing to do with the "grandfather" paradox per say, but rather fixes it.
