Summary
Maybe this is why Crono never had a voice - maybe this moment, beyond all time, burned it out of him forever with a single decisive strike. Maybe he never had a voice because if he managed to push sound out beyond his aching angry throat, all that would come out would be a horrible, groaning, divine, thundercrack boom.
(Crono gets magic.)

Summary
People tell stories about the destruction of fire, and they're right, of course. You've cast flare often enough to know just how ruinous flames can be. But remember, Lucca; that you cannot make steel without first destroying carbon and oxygen. The jungle around the base of a volcano is so vibrant, so rich. Old mast on the forest floor burns away to bring a spring of new life. Your parents sat over the table late at night as they heard the strike of your hammer down below and they worried, worried, worried, as they loved you, as they forgot that fire is what made mankind.
(Lucca and fire and love.)
