Greater Space


Again, Hyde's Tower's wall has been expanded, now almost spanning the peninsula the city is on. It is unclear what the new space is going to be utilized for, but there is a lot of it. The whole of Castle Wells could fit inside the new space that's been opened up.

Also, the Treasure Hunt is over. Xyvaz located the wreck, and send me screenshots to prove it. The redacted tale of his hunt:

The first attempt to find the sunken treasure yielded nothing. I searched all the major bodies of water within the 1km radius finding nothing. I even searched the other side of the south east sea. At the other end I found a tree on a cliff which I was gravitated to. I was drawing on night so I build a home out of dirt on the cliff side to hole up the night. in the morning I found I was besought by a creeper. so I build a land bridge out from the cliff and watched as the creeper plummeted to his demise.

After that I looked south, I heard rumors of deep lakes in the south. Since the only clue I had was it had sunk in 15m of water (which it was more like 10m) I went south. I searched until I had found fort beta, on foot!

I hadn't searched in a few days, building my grass tower, hollowing out a tunnel to an under water castle, extending the causeway to beta. Then there were more clues so I headed out again.

The clues said it was beyond 1km from spawn, which I had already determined, and that it was withing 500m of the causeway. This is where I started my search at the ends of the causeway. At the end I chose I had found a trail of torches, following it to a shed and mine that emc and made when he got lost in the wild. I used this as a way station as I searched the surround wilderness for large bodies of water. I also found a cliff side safe house above the clouds. Unfortunately as I tried to escape a creep destroyed the entrance (sorry Bronzite I tried to repair it.)

As I searched I started to head north and I found many things to the north, mushrooms, flowers and my first pumpkin patch! After a while I found a glass cottage from where I could steal a few winks before I headed further north. I followed the XXXXX road, checking to the west since one clue said also to check to the west.

Then I found the shadow of a ship in the deep and I dived to explore it, carrying my trusty Jack-O-Lantern with me to light the way as I carefully found my way into the hull, where I found my treasure.
