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

This is just a straight-up walkthrough 
guide for Chrono Cross. You will not 
find any boss stratagies, item lists, 
or anything of that sort. I want to 
help you beat the game, but at the same 
time allow you to explore it for yourself.
I have broken everything down into 50
easy to follow sections. Enjoy.

This guide is completely spoiler-free

- Method Two: Save ?????? from Time Devourer! 
- You must cast spells, make the balls appear in order of the Lunar Dragon
- The song is: Earth, Fire, Tree, Water, Gravity, Sky, and Chrono Cross
- It helps if you build everyone to Slot 8 and have each element in Slot 1
- Use healing spells so Time Devourer won't counter and screw up your ball order

That's it, you're done. This shouldn't take more than 17 hours max, and that's
if you don't have a lot of time to play (Like I did).

THE END
