What are Elements, and how do they differ from magic?
The magic used in Chrono Trigger is the biological manipulation of the four fundamental forces of the universe — fire, water, shadow, and light (or lightning). In Chrono Cross, the residents and ancestors of the El Nido archipelago were able to hone in on special power source in the planet’s crust. They forged devices that could have an effect in nature, such as manipulating water to make waves. These devices can be sold and traded on the islands. Real magic, however, is mostly absent from Chrono Cross. Belthasar notes that he used it in the future while planning Project Kid and designing Chronopolis.
