Coribus was originally settled by [[Crona]]n people who likely arrived on [[Heaven Ships]], forming a small population by the time of the arrival of [[Coscivian civilisation|Coscivian]] merchants, but a lack of fresh water sources on the island made permanent habitation difficult for the Coscivians outside of the rainy season. The [[McDickus family]] [standin] took possession of the island from the natives as an emergency stop for ships and later a resupply point until 1850, when it was purchased as a private resort island for the monarchs of [[Kingdom of the Fhainn|Faneria]], who built the island up at considerable personal expense. An early desalination plant was built in 1872 to better facilitate permanent residents and the needs of guests. | Coribus was originally settled by [[Crona]]n people who likely arrived on [[Heaven Ships]], forming a small population by the time of the arrival of [[Coscivian civilisation|Coscivian]] merchants, but a lack of fresh water sources on the island made permanent habitation difficult for the Coscivians outside of the rainy season.
