The Nearby Plains in the Distant Past

Having travelled through a mysterious temporal rift in The Nearby Plains, adventurers found themselves in a strange old world. Vaguely resembling where the adventurers were just standing, it was decided the rift must have flung them far into the past.

(Note that not all of these areas are the same distance in the past. Clown Rock appears to be ancient prehistory: the Cola Wars Battlefield is perhaps some 80-100 years ago, as is the Perfectly Ordinary Pickle Factory: but Fernswarthy's Hut and Susie's Cupcake Stand obviously are of more recent vintage, perhaps only 20-30 years ago. The same is quite possibly true of Cobb's Lump, Degrassi Book Depository and the Bat Divot - indeed, these may be even more recent. The Cemetery most likely dates back to this time as well, as it appears to be peaceful, rather than in the process of being rather rapidly filled by the awful body-count of an ongoing war.)

Areas in the Plains:

• Cobb's Lump
• Fernswarthy's Hut
• Susie's Cupcake Stand
• Degrassi Book Depository
• Clown Rock
• The Cemetery
• A Battlefield (The Cola Wars Battlefield)
• The Bat Divot
• The Perfectly Ordinary Pickle Factory

Notes

• On November 21, 2005, the temporal rift leading to this area disappeared for players over level 5. Attempts to adventure there via the "Last Adventure" link gave the message:

The temporal rift in the plains has closed.

• On future ascensions, this area becomes available again to players only while they are at level 4 or 5. However, due to the strength of the monsters, it is difficult for any unbuffed users without stat-boosting accessories to come out successfully from combat.
