Masa and Mune are the mischievous twins that compose the spiritual side of the sword Masamune, forged by Melchior. While their exact nature is unknown, they are said to be Melchior's dreams, and thus reside in the sword. They have the ability to teleport at will, and when inside the Masamune, can make it levitate and move on its own. They have one other sibling, Doreen, whose origin is also obscured in Zealian history. They can be observed hanging around Zeal Palace in their spare time, and when the Ocean Palace was completed, they attended its christening (and sensed that Lavos would soon awaken). After the Ocean Palace Incident took place, Masa and Mune somehow came to reside in the Denadoro Mts, where they played and remained for generations while the actual sword stood firmly embedded at the summit. Soon, they became a legend, and many men seeking glory and fame attempted to defeat them for the right to wield the sword; all were turned away, until 590 A.D., when Cyrus displayed a spirit of true heroism and courage in battle with them.

He briefly was able to wield the sword before it was broken in two in the Death of Cyrus. Frog took one piece to his abode in the Cursed Woods, while Masa and Mune took the other back to the Denadoro Mts and continued to reside there. In 600 A.D., when Crono ascended the mountain and confronted them in order to secure the sword to defeat Magus, they scoffed at him but were eventually defeated. They traveled at Frog's hilt for the remainder of Crono's quest, and in the Northern Ruins, were inspired by Cyrus's exchange with Frog to enrich the strength of the Masamune. Presumably, after Lavos was defeated, they remained in Frog's possession.
