What was the start of all this? When did the cogs of fate begin to turn? Perhaps it is impossible to grasp that answer now, From deep within the flow of time... But, for a certainty, back then, We loved so many, yet hated so much, We hurt others and were hurt ourselves... Yet even then we ran like the wind, Whilst our laughter echoed, Under cerulean skies... Opening words

Let love bleed. Darker and deeper than the seas of Hell!
There are two sides to every coin. Love and hate. Life and death. They are all the same.
If the world's gonna be destroyed, then let it be destroyed! If history is gonna be changed, then let it bloody well be changed! (reference to Magus' words in Chrono Trigger)
