1: [🏝️ The Natural Islands: A New Era Begins]
The Contemporary Era takes place during modern times and encompasses the first My Singing Monsters game. The remnants of the Continent, known as the Natural Islands—Plant Island, Cold Island, Air Island, Water Island, and Earth Island—became the homes of the Natural Monsters. Although the Fire Monsters had yet to reunite with the other Naturals, their presence was still manifested through the Magical Wishing Torches on these Islands.

2: [✨ Gold Island: A Higher Plane]
During this era, Gold Island, an ethereal paradise in the Higher Plane, was discovered. Only the most experienced Monsters could ascend to this realm. Gold Island became a place of celebration for the most accomplished Monsters, standing as a beacon in this new era. Later, the Seasonal Shanty was constructed, serving as the home for the Seasonal Monsters who would celebrate the Seasonal Events like Spooktacle, Festival of Yay, Season of Love, Eggs-Travaganza, and SummerSong.

3: [🛠️ The Wubbox Awakens]
While replacing the old Mines with Mini-Mines, the Monsters uncovered a mysterious machine, the Wubbox. By shrinking technology, the Monsters entered the Wubbox and powered it up, finding the inside of this contraption to be a playful realm. Over time, Wubbox was discovered on other Natural Islands and Ethereal Island, marking an important discovery for the Monsters of this era.

4: [🌌 The Ethereals Leave the Pocket Dimension]
Not long after, the single-Element Ethereal Monsters emerged from the Pocket Dimension, traveling to the Natural Islands. This marked the first time the Monsters from the main dimension encountered the Ethereals. Eventually, Ethereal Island was discovered, a haven where these beings resided, further bridging the gap between dimensions.

5: [🎸 The Shugabush and the Human Connection]
The Shugabush’s appearance on Plant Island came as a result of interactions with the Human World, leading to the creation of Shugabush Island along The Seam. The Seam represents the boundary between the Monster World and the Human World. The Shugabush, along with the Shugafam and the later-discovered Werdos, helped establish an important link between humans and Monsters, creating a unique form of collaboration.

6: [🏰 The Paradise Castle and Growing Populations]
The Paradise Castle was built to accommodate the expanding population on the Islands. This grand structure drew its inspiration from Gold Island’s infinite-bedded Crystal Castle. Around this time, new variants of Monsters, known as ‘Rares,’ were discovered. These variations of existing Monsters continued to be found well into the modern day.

7: [🌟 Glowbes and the Prism Dimension]
The Glowbes, along with their leader the Optiglowbe, came to the Monster World from the Prism Dimension. These glowing beings brought their luminescence to the Natural Islands, but the Optiglowbe remained hidden until later. Many speculate that there are even more hidden subspecies of Glowbes that remain undiscovered in the Monster World.

8: [🎶 Rediscovering the Fire Element: Tribal Island’s Revelation]
Eventually, the Fire Element, which had long been forgotten by the other Natural Monsters, made its resurgence on Tribal Island. There, the Kayna, encased in Amber, was released when the Monsters sang together at the resonant frequency of the Amber, awakening memories of the long-lost Fire Monsters from the Dawn of Fire era.

9: [🔋 The Wubbox’s Evolution]
The Wubboxes, powerful mechanical beings, were not finished with their transformations. After hurtling through time and space during the 1980s, these machines modified themselves using technology they found in the Human World, becoming Rare Wubboxes. They returned to the Monster World, integrating their newly acquired upgrades into their songs and personas.

10: [⚡ Wublin Island and the Spark of Life]
Then, the Wubbox revealed its creation of Wublin Island, where the Wublins—creatures born from stone—were brought to life using the mysterious Spark of Life. This new Island was an exciting addition to the Monster World, where the Wubbox continued to create more Wublins until finally joining their song.
