While the past is all well and good, the view of the Kingdom's future was horrifying.

Adventurers were sent on a quest into the [[Seaside Town, 28 Days Later|future]] to retrieve a [[zombie pineal gland|key ingredient]] in the vaccine against the plague. Once the plague was extinct, the Council's homemade rift closed for good, and most of the others followed suit as time repaired itself.

All but one of the rifts have since closed, and the remaining one in The Nearby Plains is only visible at experience Level 4 and 5.

Adventures who follow the rift at The Nearby Plains can observe the origins of things such as the Arena, the Misspelled Cemetary or even the legendary Spectral Pickle Factory. The only area of interest, though, is The Cola Wars Battlefield, where rare and useful items such as Dyspepsi-Cola and Cloaca-Cola equipment and grenades can be found. However, there were many casualties, including the appearance of a mysterious illness...
