Realm VI

Realm VI has been the biggest Realm as of yet, ranging from 213mb and being the one with the most detailed and intricate story, with the story having a major butterfly effect. It was also Shaniel’s first Realm experience.

Base:
The major events that happened can be ranged from the beginning all the way to the end. Spawning on an island, Aman & Fardeen were the first ones to leave the island with boats to the south. After docking the boats, they started walking all the way through the rough desert, almost dying many times in the process. After reaching the acacia and taking some loot from another village, they decided to settle near that closest village where there was also some forest present. Not too long after, Chris came online and we took him from Spawn all the way to us to help with the construction of the house, while Aman was absent. After starting with the foundation and storages, Aman discovered a small beehive behind the house and near a flower field where they took honey from. Tarun came online not too long after and we had to go all the way back to Soawn to get him here too. It’s from this moment that plans to make Spawn-travel less long and safer start to form. Tarun & Chris started the mining instantly, like always, with Fardeen also following them, so Chris came back out to start with more house constructs. Aman also build a easier way up the ravine which was right next to the house. A Nether-portal is also constructed, and this time having a lucky Nether Fortress spawn. Aman gathered the soulsand and also the magma blocks for a water elevator, so the travel from the ravine up and down would be much easier.

Nether-reconquista:
In most Realms, the Nether-spawn is mostly located near a Nether Fortress, this one was no exception. Usually, everyone goes to the Nether on the first day, and this one also. Aman went in first, and spawned, of course, near a Nether Fortress. The only big difference was that it was guarded by many, many Wither Skeletons, and because they deal a lot of damage, Aman died. Chris & Fardeen also came to assist, with both dying pretty easily due to the Wither effect. To make the task of retrieving items a bit easier and quicker, Aman built some small walls to protect one side, with torches on the walls to prevent any more from spawning. This was partially successful, and in the time that none spawned, they went exploring in the first half of the fortress. The mob-spawners found were made into quick XP-farms. For more safety, they also blocked off some portions that were open, so the Wither Skeletons wouldn’t be able to cross paths. After the first day, Aman & Chris go exploring on another side of the fortress, where a upper layer was found and they went exploring. They found more saddles and horse armor, as well as some obsidian and a few diamonds. After exploring it, Aman blocked off the dangerous parts and they returned home. This other half of the fortress would be later used as a path to the swamp-base later.

Because of the Nether-reconquista, many resources were used for the fighting and building, which drained the materials and foods alike, that is what caused the issue of not finishing the house on time, and which allowed Shaniel later to quickly take items without notice.

Shaniel’s mistake:
It’s unclear when Shaniel actually came online, but Aman went to pick him up on the second day from the Spawn Island. He came from the eastern side of the ocean with suspicious stew and gifted it to Aman. The two then went with boat to the house after walking through the desert and acacia biome. When Shaniel arrived, Aman arranged a bed and showed him around the house to get him familiar. After Aman died in a mining accident, Fardeen went to grab him from Spawn Island since his spawnpoint had been reset. Shaniel took this moment to steal all the diamonds and an emerald, as well as some other resources which they needed. When Aman came back and discovered it, Shaniel challenged him to a duel, where Aman easily beat him and took his items back. Not too long after, Chris came online and updated him on the details. This was Chris’ first encounter with Shaniel, and it wasn’t a very good start. After wasting time with this whole ordeal, the food situation was beginning to go very, very bad, and Chris recommended exploring to find some other ways of getting food. Shaniel came online later, and lied that it was his cousin who committed the act. While being still very suspicious if this was true, Shaniel revealed the truth about 1-2 weeks later.

Shaniel’s gift:
To hide the fact that he was lying, he tried something else in the meantime. Aman allowed him to set up a base near theirs, but not as close. Shaniel stayed near the river, where he stored all his items and such. He started building a port, which would later be used many times to travel through the river and reach the ocean, another way of going to the Spawn Island. The gift was gradually accepted, because we all needed to go to the ocean to get better loot from fishing.

Explorations:
After the things Shaniel had done, this prompted for some exploration so we could find an easier way of getting food. The first exploration day went southwards, where Aman & Chris discovered two or three sand villages and found out how raids worked, getting many emeralds in the process. They explored more to the southwest and found some oak villages and beehives. When they returned, not too long after that, the beehives which were kept behind the house were destroyed and made into something else. Suspicisions went to Shaniel, because he still couldn’t be trusted or Fardeen, who was unfamiliar with the beehives and could’ve possibly broken it on accident, but no one said anything. Chris & Aman decided to explore again and found some more beehives and started working on a full-on beehive honey extraction farm. They also found a tall birch forest and also a swamp, something which would be important for later. They explored even further, reaching as far an eternal snow biome, which went on and on even through exploring thousands of blocks. They decided to turn back and start making other progressions.

Fishing-era:
This Realm was called the fishing era for a good reason. Aman and Fardeen were exploring the seas to find some islands in the aftermath of Shaniel’s mistake, and they found some underwater ruins. Aman then went in and found a very powerful fishing rod, which Fardeen later used to fish up a mending book, which applied made the fishing rod unstoppable. Chris later used it to fish and this started the fishing rod advancements. When Tarun came online, Chris had already made several copies of the rod and gave one to him as well. The fishing was quite ideal, because everyone got saddles, something which was necessary for horses which would in turn be used to go to the End-portal. The fishing was also a way of getting enchanted bows and books and XP, which could be used for other enchanting. This was a key discovery which would influence all the other Realms following it. During this period, Aman with the help of Chris & Fardeen, constructed the major farm, which solved all the food problems, even overproducing food.

Progressions:
During the middle of the Realm, Elijah joined and made the basement much fresher than it used to be, but due to personal reasons, he wouldn’t be invited to any other Realms in the future. After the Nether was finally solved and everything there was put into place, two XP-farms were put into place. One of the villages was looking awfully suspicious and Chris tried investigating it, when he made a few villagers become traders, and started trading with them for items, specifically books. Fardeen had been doing some strange things in the recent events, with Chris having discovered his secret chest on the first day, and Shaniel being very quiet, but still not trustworthy after what he did. Chris & Aman hid some items behind a small opening, which was found, so they moved it to the other side of the hill, but somehow that was also partially found. Because Tarun had trust-issues with Fardeen since before, because of some of his items going missing and previous events, he decided to build a secret base somewhere, but not knowing where.

Since he needed slime, Aman suggested building it in the swamp itself, which they easily accessed through Nether-portals, although on the other side. They made it underneath the river close to the portal, and there they made a small little strip-mine, with an enchanting table later put there as well. This was kept a secret from Fardeen & Shaniel, because they’d been doing rather strange activities, with Tarun claiming that they’ve been secretly working together and using x-ray. Chris was also invited to the secret base, and he also stayed quiet. This was basically the situation of the Realm in the second half. Chris & Aman later discovered the jungle biome through chunkbase, even though it took about 35-minutes.

Ender Dragon:
In the final days, everyone decided to prepare for the Ender Dragon and later the Wither. The portal was located in the same village where Chris had previously layed his suspicions on. The path down to the portal was quite rough, and it made it harder to come back if someone died. This fight was one of the more chaotic, but also succesful. Even though it took awhile for Aman & Chris to prepare, they made it to the portal later. Due to impatience, Fardeen, Shaniel & Tarun already jumped in, with Chris following not too long after and Aman later. The slow-falling potion made a very big difference, and is what caused this fight to succeed, because the coordination was bad. They requested to make more, but Aman died in the process, so he took the time to make the items. His items despawned, but Chris’ items were saved by Tarun & Aman. Fardeen also lost his items, but it’s unknown how. Since Chris obtained most of the XP, he decided to make Aman some newer armor, with better enchantments.

The second fight, however, went much smoother and faster, with Fardeen easily surviving because there were no Endermen near him and Aman destroying most of the towers. This fight was very unfortunate for Chris, because he died and most of his armor despawned. To repay the favor, Aman decided to make new ones for him. During this time, Aman accidentally discovered an XP-glitch, which led to the easy creation of Chris’ armor. Aman showed the glitch to Tarun, who also discovered how to do it on command, while Aman still struggled to do it. This would cause the whole issue in the next Realm. After getting all their items back and such, the group planned what to do next.

Tarun ventured off into the End-islands to find his elytra, but he almost fell to his death if Aman didn’t intervene and build him his own little water platform, which made it easier for him to come back, but the return journey was horrifying and terrible to experience.

Seatemple-raid:
'*Much of the things which are listed here are said in a way that is remembered, not official. That is because of the fact that most of these things happened very quick and because of the constant thinking most were forgotten.*'

It was said that they would still raid the Seatemple and defeat the Wither, but the latter never came, because of simple events that followed. The whole group went with boat to the location, but Tarun used his elytra, which made the others envious and Aman started to get annoyed that he saved him. When they arrived, it was difficult to break blocks because of the mining-fatigue, and the buckets of milk were quickly gone for some reason. When Chris found the sponge, Tarun died due to drowning and the same for Aman not too long afterwards. Aman’s stuff was found by Shaniel and Tarun’s was found partially by Fardeen. Shaniel was responding slow and that’s what cut the string for Aman. Fardeen had all of Tarun’s items besides his elytra, but after a inventory check, it was proven that he didn’t steal it, but it despawned after checking another time. Tarun was mad that his elytra was gone, and Aman was still annoyed that Shaniel was giving him items with the pace of a snail and Chris finally came back up with a few items. That’s when the game-changer happened.

The reset happened, it was already happening before, where you would be reset in a stage of the Realm you had just been before starting the game. This time, we were reset to the point where we were when we started the raid, Chris managed to get his sponge and other items, Tarun and his elytra back, but another issue occurred. Because of his internet at that time, Aman was unable to join, which caused him to rage. It was decided that fighting the Wither tomorrow would be a waste of time and to start the Realm at morning the next day. When everyone was gone, about an hour later, Aman managed to join the Realm, retreating to the base and saving the Realm.

Aftermath

After this Realm, many things changed, the opinion and reputation of Shaniel were rooted inside of the other members because this was his first impression with them, noted by Fardeen. It was realized that Fardeen liked hiding his items somewhere else and had many secrets. And Tarun always wanting the elytra first. This influenced the decision to make teams in the next Realm. This Realm was the biggest one (213.4mb), because of much exploring and the expansion of resources. The next Realm would be the seventh.
