Rio Grande - Age Timeline

Description

I was imagining some stuff that may had happened in Rio's past and this... came along. Anywho, some stuff about each age:

⏩ 5 years: Rio was a bubbly and easy going little fella who never seems to stop smiling. His skeleton face was unlike other skeletons in where he could express more emotions than most people. He lives in a farm with his parents and often loved helping out whenever he could. And when he's not helping, he is playing hard.

⏩ 10 years: He believes in working hard and watching his parents really cemented this into his mind. He keeps the farm tidy and his siblings in line whenever winter was coming. He takes time to grow some flowers at least to sell with his parents. As they are selling their crops and livestock, he was off to the side selling flowers and honey. It became a small business to him. To award him for his hard work, he was gifted a foal which he named Boneita.

⏩ 15 years: Rio was a hit with his neighbors due to his generous and upbeat personality. He enjoys the outdoors and never seems to find a day where he was bored. His part in the farm was climbing trees to pick the apples at the top, growing beautiful flowers and cooking for long hours in the kitchen. He was not that great of a chef but could create jams, pies and whatever could be sold in town. 

⏩ 20 years: Part of Rio's farm was destroyed in the process of commotion from a threat. This was when the great war between Humans and Monsters uprose, causing many monsters to be holed into the ground. Many took refuge in Rio's farm and his family did their best to keep everyone fed and alive. Rio then decided to join the Royal Guard, as he could not bear to watch his family suffer from this. All it gave him in return were jagged scars that could not be healed and memories of injury to other people. He learned to handle a rifle and pistol as well as a sword during this time. Rio's self esteem and joyful personality suffered  from this war and he keeps his mouth shut about it.

⏩ 25 years: After five years of serving, Rio decided to leave. The monsters were already underground and sealed off and it's been half a decade. He mentioned the excuse that he was bored and need to explore a bit more as his lifespan allows, but in reality, was trying to get away from the memories of war. Asgore offered a goodbye present and Rio asked for magic that will conceal the scars on his face, as it was his biggest insecurity. He turned his ragged Royal Guard cape into a bandanna for keepsake. He took his leave and returned home and was welcomed warmly. He took Boneita and a few equipment, going off to explore the rest of the Underground. He is more happier and is letting his joyfulness seep through, though a bit more mellow than before. After all, he barely survived the war and wants to see what life has to offer him.

⏩ 30 years: Old habits die hard as Rio was still selling things -- but this time was bullet casings and honey (for health). He decided to rid the magic on his face and let his scars show as a sign of his now more confident personality. He goes from town to town, meeting everyone and exploring knickknack shacks. Rio isn't as upbeat as when he was young or as reserved during his Royal Guard days, but more wise and sophisticated. He begins light drinking to forget his woes, but is still the well kempt man he always was. He decides to be a sort of protector for anyone that needs it, patrolling around on his horse and keeping an eye out for mischief.

I have 2 questions
Both related to Rio's family
1. In which part of the underground do they live? 
2. Have you made a concept art of them or something?
