Forest Ruins

Era Present
You're faced with an interesting choice in the Forest Ruins, once you have powered up the Pendant. You can take the Swallow, a good sword for Crono, or the Safe Helm. Both are unique and powerful. The Swallow is Crono's best Weapon when you can first obtain it, but the Safe Helm will remain useful for longer.
