The songs at the top of each box aligns with the playlist. The timeline was created as a synopisis of a story already told and the songs that fit with the themes. The timeline will be kept updated as the game moves forward and plot unfolds. Currently this page does not work with mobile, I am trying to fix this but as of now I am sorry it is not mobile friendly.

EARLY 18th CENTURY
THE FIRST PACT
Water Witch • Kingdom Come • Boy with a Coin • Willow Tree March
It began by the waterfall, where a witch sang and the wolves howled behind her. The
air itself bent to listen. Her song braided magic with the wolves’ voices and the hearts
of watching humans — a covenant of balance: witches to guide, wolves to guard,
humans to tend. The cryptids blinked from the trees, curious. Water shimmered with
promise. Between was born not of conquest, but chorus.
THE BREAKING
Danger and Dread • Deep Green • Daffodil
Time passed. The humans forgot the song. They built over rivers, tore the mountains
open for ore, and drained the hollers that had once sung back to them. The witches
warned. The wolves howled. But industry is a kind of blindness. When the rain began,
no one believed it would last. It did. It fell until the sky itself wept mud and memory,
and Between was swallowed whole.
THE FLOOD & NEW PACT
Monolith • Mama Werewolf • Hypothermic
The river rose higher than the church spire. Wolves swam beside witches. The gifted
children of humankind begged forgiveness for the sins they hadn’t yet committed.
Under lightning, they gathered at the falls again, their blood mingling with the rain. The
Guardian awoke — the living water, vast and merciful. When the storm broke,
Between remained, smaller but wiser. A pact remade in grief, kept in blood and bone
THE ORAL YEARS
Let This Remain • Some Dreams You Never Wake Up From • Dead Stars
For generations, the story was told in whispers: how the river loved them enough to
destroy them. Between rebuilt slowly, curving with the mountains instead of against
them. Children grew up knowing the songs. Old women taught them how to listen to
water. A bruise of light hung in the sky, soft and unhealed. The Whistler’s tune
wandered through the streets like fog — a reminder that peace in Between is never
silence, only balance
THE LIVING WATER
Running with the Wolves • Nothing Else Matters • Bad Moon Rising
Now, Between breathes. Cryptids drift through the holler like half-remembered
dreams. The waterfall hums with a pulse older than language. Visitors think they’ve
stumbled into a strange fairytale — and perhaps they have. But the townsfolk know
better. They guard the memory of the pact in stories, in songs, in the rhythm of the
rain. For in Between, every drop of water carries the voice of the Guardian, still
singing the promise that began it all.
PROLOGUE - CURRENT
December was quiet. Friendships made, partners gained, familial bonds kept and some new blood poured into town.
CHAPTER I: ASH & SONG
12.31.25 rolled over into 01.01.26 with a rumble and a bang. Before the sun could rise ash was raining down in Ruin and those not at The Nest felt the ground shudder. In less than 72 hours Ruin was gone, Between's guardian rose to enact their sacred pact and create a new promise with warning that The Rot Queen has awoken and The Dealer is not done following The Stag's orders.
To Come...
Begins 02.01.2026

Between is a neo-Appalachian horror-mystery about survival, secrecy, and the thin line between myth and memory. The town’s magic runs deep—but it’s watching who you let in.
