So Lavos manipulates how the "world" evolves and such, but does he ever communicate directly? Or do we solely assume his intentions based on his actions? (I mean, Crono doesn't really let us know how he's feeling, but we can surmise that he wants to save the world...)
In a related question, did Lavos influence Queen Zeal somehow? Lavos is one topic about Chrono Trigger that always confused the hell out of me, especially after the release of Chrono Cross.
