12,000 BC
12,000 B.C.
This is the Ice Age. But also in this time zone is the magical kingdom of Zeal, which lies high up in the clouds. You don't get any characters here, but it's still a cool place to visit. (Until Zeal falls into the ocean. Then it just becomes some lame place to go.)
In Zeal, there were 3 Gurus; The Guru of Life
, Reason
& Time
. But beacause they opposed the queen's
plan to absorb energy from Lavos, they were sucked into different time zones. The guru of life was sent to 1000 A.D. in Medina Village. The guru of reason was sent into 2300 A.D. near Death Peak. The guru of time was sent into the infinite time zone.
Janus & Alfador
Janus was also sent back into time in 600 A.D. He grew up to be a powerful sorcerer. And he gives you one heck of a time. (Hint: HE'S MAGUS!) But later he can join you on your adventure.
Schala
Schala is Janus' big sister. She is a kind princess who still treated the earthbound ones as equals. Her mother, Queen Zeal, wanted to be immortal. So she used Schala's powers to create the Mammon Machine and absorb energy from Lavos. Eventually she gets her powers zapped from her and Magus/Janus has to watch his sister leave him again. (Awwww, how sad.)
Queen Zeal
She's the stupid @#$%! who started this whole mess with the Mammon Machine and Lavos. She is one nasty opponent. When the Black Omen appears from the ruins of the Ocean Palace, she is the final boss in it. She's just as hard as Giga Gaia, and then some. She is also the mother of Schala and Janus. Some mother she is! She threatened to destroy Schala when she refused to help her.
Dalton
Dalton is Queen Zeal's aid and he is a very annoying character. When Zeal falls, Dalton tries to take over as king.
