Points of interest[]

Wildlife[]

Fauna[]

  • Giant Spiders: Mystic Point is home to abnormally large spiders, significantly larger larger than the Goliath Birdeaters which are the largest spiders known to still be living. Also uniquely, these spiders spin webs to catch their prey which most large spiders (such as the Goliath Birdeater) do not do, rather using their webs to make burrows where they will drag their prey to feed.
  • Monkeys: Mystic Point seems to be home to small monkeys, possible of the Capuchin species or a relative of them. This is unique as there are no native species of monkey found within Papua New Guinea. It is possible that monkeys are not native to Mystic Point and Albert got there by other means, but as much is unknown.

History[]

Background[]

Lord Henry Mystic visited the land which would become Mystic Point around the late 1870s/early 1880s. On this expedition, he happened upon a young monkey caught in a spider's web. Mystic saved the monkey and encaged the spider before taking the monkey in as his pet, "Albert". Lord Henry Mystic and Albert would travel the world together, claiming artifacts from across the globe to add to Lord Henry Mystic's personal collection.

Mystic and Albert returned to the jungles of New Guinea in 1896 with Mystic proceeding to take the jungle as his own and colonize it into, "Mystic Point". Mystic Point would be a meeting-place for Lord Henry Mystic's contemporaries along with his nephews James and Edward Mystic. The Lord's nephews aided Lord Mystic in constructing the victorian estate of Mystic Manor where Lord Henry kept his private-collection of 7000 artifacts. Mystic Point was completed in the year 1896.

In 1908, Lord Henry Mystic began running tours within Mystic Manor using his inventions, the Magneto-Electric Carriages. Also in 1908, Mystic opened up the, "Explorers Club Restaurant" to host his contemporary explorers. By around 1936, Mystic Point hosted the Adventure Trading Company, a colonial trading company of which Lord Henry was a member. By 1938, the point also hosted one Dr. Kon Chunosuke, an entomologist from the Society of Explorers and Adventurers of which Mystic was also a member.

Trivia[]

  • New Guinea is a location that is historically affiliated with gross extents of British and German colonialism. Most notably is Terra Nullius, a form of racist propaganda used in Oceania and New Guinea in-particular where European colonists claimed the land was uninhabited due to a lack of Western agriculture (agricultural practices which traditionally would not function in said regions).
