Introduction
The introduction starts with the reveal that after King Kong's demise and the unveiling of Skull Island, universities and private organizations around the world made more expeditions to the island, but only a handful made it to Skull Island with half being unprepared for what awaited them. Eventually, a properly prepared expedition team lead by Carl Denham named Project Legacy is organized. The expedition lasts for three months in 1935, but the team finds that Skull Island is too strange and dangerous to study in a short space of time, leading the expedition to be expanded to long-term study and even having a base of operations on the island itself.
