## **The Timeline of Lore of Mountain Ridge**

**Mountain Ridge's** history spans between potentially 1119, and 510 years. Here's the timeline of events;

### **The First Settlers, the Middle Ages (Between 900s AD - 1500s)**

A group of humans settle on the south-east beach of **Mountain Ridge**. There they settle, and create **the Mountain Ridge Castle,** later called **Crumbling Castle**.

### **The Sinking of the Population (Between 1400s - 1600s)**

The residents of **Mountain Ridge** begin to die off, causing the population to reduce to zero. Sometime during this time, the first parts of **the Mountain Ridge Mine** are constructed.

### **The Resettling of Mountain Ridge (Between 1970s - 1990s)**

People begin coming to **Mountain Ridge** again, and start repopulating there, causing a stable population around 10 to 30ish people. During this time, **Cozy Cabin, the Dinghy, the Lighthouse, the Mountainside House, the Power Lines, the Two Cabins, the Watchtower,** and **the Wood Cottage** are constructed.

**The Lighthouse** is considered to have been made in the late 70s. **Cozy Cabin, the Mountainside House, the Power Lines, the Two Cabins, the Watchtower,** and **the Wood Cottage** are considered to have been made in the early 80s. **The Dinghy's** boat number was registered in 1997, and stays abandoned near what is now the **Archipelago Armory.**

### **A Military Comes In, and Becomes the Mountain Ridge Military (Sometime in the 1980s)**

During the 1980s, **a military force** begins to appear on the island, and later, through unknown means, becomes **the Mountain Ridge Military.** During this time, **the Mountain Ridge Military** constructs the **Archipelago Armory,** **Comms Construct,** and **Fort Foundation**.

The **Archipelago Armory** was constructed on a archipelago near **Mountain Ridge**, **Comms Construct** was constructed near the top of the northern mountain of **Mountain Ridge**, and **Fort Foundation** was constructed nearby the bottom of the north-eastern mountain of **Mountain Ridge**.

### **The Discovery of the Rift Energy, and the Mountain Ridge Military's First Logs (Sometime in the 2010s, Days 25 to 97)**

**The Mountain Ridge Military,** decided to start tracking their days on **Mountain Ridge** during this time. In what is logged as **Day 25, the Mountain Ridge Military** discover a rip in space-time. They name it a "Rift," and they discover it has an aura of tons of energy surrounding it. In order to use it to it's full advantage, **the Mountain Ridge Military** constructs **Tiny Town,** a **Decoy Town** that houses a bunker underneath it, that **tests the Rifts,** and experiments with it, right next to a lake.

In what is logged as **Day 29**, **the Mountain Ridge Military** decide to make a rocket powered by the Rift's energy. **Roaring Rocket,** and **Mission Control,** are constructed next to the same lake as **Tiny Town,** but is next to the eastern mountain. In what is logged as **Day 33,** **Rift Test #17,** and **Rift Test #18,** take place in **the bunker under the Decoy Town**. In what is logged as **Day 58, Rift Test #98** takes place in **the bunker under the Decoy Town.** This **Rift Test** caused other Rifts to spawn all over **Mountain Ridge.** In the Days logged as **Day 87,** and **Day 97,** the rocket begins to display problems due to the Rift's abilities.
