Thousands of years ago, before the meteorite fell.
At the very center of the island where the Lanyu Kingdom now stands, there was a massive mountain range that covered one-tenth of the island's total area.
After the meteorite fell from the sky, the mountain range shattered, becoming what is now the Chaotic Star Rock.
In the distant era of colonial corporations, the Chaotic Star Rock was once the island's largest source of mineral wealth.
It was home to savage and brutal native tribes and gave birth to the enigmatic Black Death Prison.
One could say that the Chaotic Star Rock has always dictated the rise and fall of the entire island.
This remains true even now, with the Black Death Prison gone.
The Lanyu Kingdom's most recently discovered motherlode of mineral deposits is located right where the Black Death Prison once stood.
