||
| ⚫ | Prior to the year [[Prehistory|65,000,000 B.C.]], Ayla became chief of Ioka village due to her strength and fearlessness, acquiring a Piece of the [[Dreamstone]] as a symbol of that office. She led her people in the war against the Reptites, assumedly since the beginning of her time as chief. When the mysterious time-travelers from the Future arrived, Ayla temporarily relinquished her post to join them in their quest to stop [[Lavos]]. Kino, her mate, probably served as chief in her place. Outside the Forest Maze, right before the defeat of [[Nizbel]] in the [[Reptite Lair]], she mentions that upon falling terminally ill or upon dying, [[Kino]] will become chief of the Ioka Village. Because of this, it seems that the title of chief does not necessarily travel to the strongest or most courageous of the Iokan Tribe, but rather, progresses to the spouse or the next genetic heir, much like the [[Guardia#Government|monarchy]] that exists in following eras. |
||
| ⚫ | After Lavos hits the planet, dust blasts into the atmosphere and blocks out the sun. This causes an ice age and the extinction of the Reptites; Ayla subsequently retires from her duties as chief; and after the defeat of Lavos, Ayla returned to the time era 65,000,000 B.C. and then she married Kino with a Dreamstone ring. As she is the distant ancestor of Marle and the Guardia Royal Family, she and he produced a lineage that survived the Ice Age and even survived the [[Zeal#Destruction and Legacy|Fall of Zeal]]. |

The broken pieces of the Masamune are acquired after the party defeats [[Masa & Mune|Masa and Mune]], guardians of the blade.

Upon their arrival in [[Mystic Mountains|Mystic Mountain]], they are ambushed by a seemingly ceaseless swarm of [[Reptite]]s. Ayla shows up to fight them off and invites the time-travelers to her village for a party. Ayla, as chieftain due to her strength and will, is the keeper of the Dreamstone, and during the party, if Crono beats Ayla at an alcohol-chugging competition (censored in the English version as "soup"), she willingly forks it over. However, when the sun rises the next day, they find the camp has been ransacked by Reptites and the [[Gate Key]] stolen. Tracking the reptilian marauders to [[Forest Maze]], Ayla convinces[[ Kino]] to admit he had stolen the Gate Key out of jealousy, after which point the Reptites stole it from him. Ayla, Crono, and the others invade the [[Reptite Lair]], defeat [[Nizbel]], and take the Gate Key from [[Azala]] so they can return to the present and repair the sword. |

It is at this point that Ayla names "Lavos", a word she made up from the root words "''La''" meaning "''fire''" and "''Vos''" "''big''" in the Iokan language. |

Ayla (エイラ Eira?, Eira in Japanese media[1]) is a character in Chrono Trigger and is the chief of the Ioka Tribe in Prehistory. Her people are in constant war against the Reptites, an evolved, intelligent race of reptiles. She is characterized as fiercely courageous, decisively confident, and morally pure. BiographyPrior to the year 65,000,000 B.C., Ayla became chief of Ioka village due to her strength and fearlessness, acquiring a Piece of the Dreamstone as a symbol of that office. She led her people in the war against the Reptites, assumedly since the beginning of her time as chief. When the mysterious time-travelers from the Future arrived, Ayla temporarily relinquished her post to join them in their quest to stop Lavos. Kino, her mate, probably served as chief in her place. Outside the Forest Maze, right before the defeat of Nizbel in the Reptite Lair, she mentions that upon falling terminally ill or upon dying, Kino will become chief of the Ioka Village. Because of this, it seems that the title of chief does not necessarily travel to the strongest or most courageous of the Iokan Tribe, but rather, progresses to the spouse or the next genetic heir, much like the monarchy that exists in following eras. After Lavos hits the planet, dust blasts into the atmosphere and blocks out the sun. This causes an ice age and the extinction of the Reptites; Ayla subsequently retires from her duties as chief; and after the defeat of Lavos, Ayla returned to the time era 65,000,000 B.C. and then she married Kino with a Dreamstone ring. As she is the distant ancestor of Marle and the Guardia Royal Family, she and he produced a lineage that survived the Ice Age and even survived the Fall of Zeal. It is unknown whether Ayla re-assumes her role as chief after pregnancy. Upon her death, likely one of her children took her place as chief. A Female child would be more likely to fill this position. StorylineAyla is first introduced to the party when Crono and his friends visit the prehistoric era to repair Frog's sword, The Masamune, to assist in their battle against Magus, leader of the Mystics and murderer of Frog's best friend Cyrus.
