The Lost City of Geraptiku[edit]

It was discovered by curious archaeologists on August 6, 2005, and has been abandoned for so long the jungle has been reclaiming the land originally taken by the city. Mystery Island natives are fearful of Geraptiku, and are so superstitious about even mentioning its name or looking in its direction. It's believed Geraptiku fell into decline due to it's peoples' excessive pride and claims of greatness, and were struck down in one night by the spirits they angered.
All that remains of the once great city is a collection of rotted huts, a Geraptiku Petpet shop owned my a mystery shopkeeper, and a Desert Temple. Geraptiku is also the location of the game Goparokko, after a Yurble discovered that putting special coloured blocks together made them disappear.
