The Ocean Palace, the culminating engineering achievement of the kingdom of Zeal, is the staging ground for an event that spread influence aross all eras of time. Conceived after Lavos had been discovered as a power source to the people of Zeal, it was masterminded by the Guru of Reason, Belthasar, who envisioned constructing a palace on the ocean floor to get closer to Lavos. Belthasar and his fellow Gurus soon expressed doubts about this plan, and feared a possible reaction from the sleeping giant. Regardless, assembly continued as Dalton was made the foreman of the project. He duly recruited Earthbound slaves for the physical handiwork; meanwhile, the people of Zeal, particularly those in Kajar, felt growing anticipation for the completion of the project. Hailed as the power conduit that would bestow immortality upon humanity, it was viewed as a final solution and the ultimate achievement of the magical kingdom. Eventually, the Mammon Machine, housed at Zeal Palace, was transferred down to the incomplete undersea complex and sealed with the power of the Pendant. The dreams of Melchior, Masa, Mune, and Doreen, began fearing the activation of the Machine there along with the Gurus; however, plans continued until the day of its completion arrived.

The entire royal family assembled to christen the event, as did the Gurus and many citizens from Zeal. The Nu staffing the palace became fretful as the power of the Mammon Machine was raised to its limit; Queen Zeal scoffed at the worries of the Gurus, while Dalton eagerly awaited immortality. However, Lavos was awakened by the draining force of the machine, and a temporal distortion erupted in the heart of the palace. Lavos appeared, and before the Gurus or others could react, they fell into temporal distortions themselves and were spread across the eras. Schala alone remained with her mother, as her brother Janus too had traveled through time. It is unknown what happened after these events in the Lavos timeline; Schala possibly had the power to transport herself and her mother out of the palace. Regardless, Lavos exacted total destruction on the kingdom of Zeal, which fell to the planet. A few citizens survived, and afterwards mingled with the Earthbound. The Ocean Palace had been destroyed.

When Crono traveled through time to save the world, he visited the Ocean Palace; control of the structure's completion had been transferred to the Prophet in this new timeline. Lavos once again appeared as the Mammon Machine was raised to its limit; while Magus attempted to stop the beast and save Schala, he failed, and the Ocean Palace Incident repeated itself. However, Schala and Queen Zeal were left behind, and the latter took advantage of her newfound bond with Lavos and raised the Ocean Palace as the Black Omen. Belthasar's engineering achievement had been transformed into a nightmarish vessel; the Ocean Palace was once more doomed to a sorrowful fate.

Chrono Cross

When the Ocean Palace Incident occurred in the new timeline Crono created, Schala was left behind and engulfed in a dimensional distortion that took her to the Darkness Beyond Time. The Mammon Machine was also temporarily shifted with her, though apparently returned to the normal world.

Radical Dreamers

After Schala was left alone in the palace, she grew indescribably sorrowful, causing the Frozen Flame (presumably interred in the Mammon Machine nearby) to reincarnate her as a child far in the future and give her a second chance.
