In this entry, we fight Azala and find out how Lavos ended up on the earth. We also find a Gate leading to the Ice Age...but why?

When you head past where you fought Nizbel, you'll be back outside. There will be a locked gate to the right and the switch you need to hit (and a Full Ether) further to the right. You'll have to fight three Terrasarus (one in the first battle, two in the second) before you can finally face Azala.
When you meet Azala, he will have you following him to the final battle between the humans and the Reptites, which is really just you and the team of Azala and Black Tyrano. Azala will tell the nearby moving red star - the one you've seen at the Dactyl Nest - to fall and stain the earth red.
Azala has a lot less HP than Black Tyrano (who has over 10,000), so take care of him first so he doesn't throw rocks at you or puts you to sleep. You'll want to hit him with very powerful strikes, such as Crono and Ayla's Falcon Hit (which does the job wonderfully and also hits Black Tyrano). When you defeat Azala, he will hit the party with Azala Break, which will slowly lower the party's HP one hit point at a time.
That leaves Black Tyrano. When you see the message stating that defense is being lowered and that power is being stored, start hitting Black Tyrano with your most powerful attacks. Black Tyrano will count down from five, and when he hits zero, he will hit everyone in the party with a powerful fire breath attack. If that happens, heal up your party, preferably with Ayla and Frog's Slurp Kiss. Black Tyrano's defense will then get back to normal until he lowers his defense and stores power again.
Believe it or not, charming Azala gives you a Magic Tab, while charming the Black Tyrano will net you a Power Tab. I didn't find this out until after making this video.
After winning the boss battle, Azala will mention in his last moments that an ice age is coming and that the Reptites are doomed to die, anyway. Kino shows up with the pterodactyls and rescues everyone, but Azala refuses rescuing, resigning himself to being hit by the red star - which ends up being a meteor - that completely destroys the Tyrano Lair and leaves a crater in its wake. This meteor is named "Lavos" - "big fire" - by Ayla, and it becomes very apparent that Magus was telling the truth about summoning Lavos and that Lavos was, in fact, the meteor that crashed into the earth 65 million years ago. Afterwards, Crono and company will discuss what they have learned before the game switches back to the overworld.
From here, enter the crater. You'll find that there is a Gate, and when you enter it, it will take you to 12,000 B.C., which is in the middle of the ice age.
If you party is above Level 30, Spekkio will take the form of an Omnicrone at The End of Time.
