The city was abandoned after a raid by approximately 7 griefers<ref>Starting on April 1st, 2012, but currently the source closest in time to the event to be (re)discovered is this: https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/rqrh1/all_is_fair_in_hatred_and_peace_but_not_war_the/</ref>. The raids had been continuous for approximately a week, and most of the griefers had seen the insides of a Rift prison at least once. In the final raid, the griefers were able to rescue their friends and do significant damage to several large businessess. The former inhabitants followed business to other cities, leaving the city's architectual wealth to the vines from the jungle above.

Following the fall of the city many of the former inhabitants looked towards more defendable city. Rift, despite its beauty, was a hard to defend city. A group of refugees formed [[Atlantis]], a far more defendable city, submerged in a nearby sea.
