## Act II - Aftermath and The Gift (Meteor)

* May 1, 2022 - Nearly all oceans in almost every spot have turned into solid ice. It is no longer snowing due to the ocean's water solidifying (no more evaporation = no precipitation). Wind currents all begin to violently blow eastward in the opposite direction of Earth's rotation. Fine snow is constantly blown from close to the ground and up to 30 ft in the air, making visibility almost zero all the time.
* June 14, 2022 - The Gift (meteor) lands in the center of the Atlantic Ocean.
* June 15, 2022 - Islands begin to form where The Gift landed, volcanic activity occurs.
* June 20, 2023 - Like as if it was a timebomb, The Gift begins to emit a strange energy (mana). People begin to notice the effects it produced. Radioactive dust was slowly neutralized by mana was one of the things observed by researchers using geiger-counter instruments.
* June 21, 2023 - The surviving researchers across the globe began to experiment with mana. They took a lot of notes and tried to share the basic fundamentals with as much people as possible to help humanity survive.
* July 1, 2023 - Survivors began to notice that the oceans began to slowly melt and the climate becoming warmer.
* June 14, 2024 - The climate worldwide returns back to "normal" and all but the very northern and southern poles remain frozen. All radioactive dust seemed to have been neutralized from the air and ground. People noticed that living land mammals seemed to still be affected though. Surviving marine life did not exhibit any form of radioactive poisoning or effects of radiation.
* September 8, 2024 - The islands in the Atlantic Ocean finally settle, volcanoes become semi-dormant, and plant life begins to quickly grow from the strange barren earth. It was unknown at the time, but the mana emitted from The Gift sped up plant growth by a significant amount.
* September 10, 2024 - Researchers and people keeping tabs on the islands took note and quickly spread word about the ceasing of the volcanoes and that someone should go take a look at the island formations.
* September 15, 2024 - The first researchers and survivors wanting to go on a adventure finally start travelling to the islands after first carefully planning and preparing.
* September 29, 2024 - It is announced and declared that the islands were safe, and it seemed that radiation was completely absent from the islands. Because of this news, people began to escape from their desolate wastelands and head to the islands.
* October 5, 2024 - Settlers began to call the island formations ODIN, which stood for Otherworldly Dimension In Nature. They also began to notice some strange things in ODIN, such as unknown creatures sprawling from random places.
* October 7, 2024 - After visual confirmation, settlers issue an emergency warning to everyone else that there are monsters on the islands. Bones began to clump together and become skeleton soldiers; green lizard-like bipods that exploded if one got too close; spiders the size of humans. People began to prepare their weapons and fought off the monsters as they built up their settlements.
* October 15, 2024 - Settlers who began to mine into the mountains or underground in Odin found an interesting new type of gemstone/crystal pinkish-purple in color.
* October 17, 2024 - Large dragons showed up near The Gift that miners were harvesting the new crystals from, and began to attack all humans in sight.
* October 19, 2024 - After a fierce two-day battle, humans managed to kill one dragon with firearms and heavy explosives. This then drove off the other dragons away which was caused by fear from one of their kind being slain.
* October 20, 2024 - Settlers began to call the new crystals Dragon Ore as a result from the battle; the dragons seemed to have been guarding the crystals so they were named as such.
* October 20, 2024 - Researchers finally were able to begin experimenting on the newfound Dragon Ore after safely sending some samples back to their laboratories overseas.
* January 2025 - Research on mana, magic, and Dragon Ore quickly sped up, and new innovations and technology came to fruition.
