Date played: November 12th
Platform: Vita
After picking up the broken half of the Masamune, I tried talking to Tata, but it didn't really lead anywhere. When I went to visit Frog though, we found a clue. He had the other half of the Masamune, and Melchior's name was written down on it. We went back to 1000 A.D. near Medina village and spoke with him, and he revealed that he could fix the sword, but needed a rare red stone called Dreamstone. The only hint is that it was common a VERY long time ago...
This led our team to 65 million B.C.! This time period is easily my favorite in the game. There's something about dinosaurs and cavemen that I just love. As soon as we got out of the portal, we were confronted by a bunch of reptile people called Reptite. There were too many for us to handle alone, but thankfully, a buff, blonde cave-woman appeared and saved our asses!
Ayla is a great character. She's got big muscles and a heart of gold, but she's also pretty dumb, being a cave-woman and all. We talked to her about Dreamstone an she led us to her village. The cavemen are very friendly, so much that they had a huge party for us! We drank soup, we danced and we had a great time. The soup must have been special though, because we got knocked out until morning...
In the morning, Lucca was horrified to discover that her time travel wand had disappeared! We followed some footprints, which led us to a forest maze full of dangerous dinosaurs. Ayla joined the party, so I've been rolling with Crono, Robo and Ayla for this dungeon. Dinosaurs are all vulnerable to lightning, so I ended up using Crono's lightning skill a lot. It turns out, Ayla's friend Kino had stolen the wand because he was jealous of the attention the time travelers were getting. However, he was ambushed in the forest and the wand was taken by the reptites.
After fighting dozens of reptites and dinosaurs, we fought a boss. Azala is a high ranking Reptite, and he sends his bodyguard, Nizbel, after us. Nizbel is a giant triceratops-like dinosaur. He was one of my favorite looking bosses yet, with great artwork, animation and sound effects. He has huge defense, so Crono's lightning tech was important to use, it lowers Nizbel's defense.
After the battle, Azala conceded and gave us the wand, and Ayla left to go back to her village. My team went back to 1000 A.D. to see Melchior and repair the sword. We then presented it to Frog, in 600 A.D., who agreed to join our team, but refuses to wield the legendary sword. We must now stop Magus and his army!
