Hello ! I'm glad to present you Hélympiôs, the map I recently built on the Builders Refuge public server. This map was built in 3 weeks for the open contest from the Apex events 2017. I hope you will enjoy it !
Hélympiôs is a mysterious island that was created during some unknown ages by the Sirens and the Fairies, somewhere in the Middle Ocean. The Sirens, coming from the deepest seas, and the aerial Fairies got in touch at the sea surface, as if by chance. This event gave rise to the multi-millennial civilization of the Fairy Sirens, based on the island of Hélympiôs, which expanded throughtout the ages. It's a very delicate and fragile civilization, but really untouchable because of hidden from the human knowlege. It's also defended by a really performant and complex system based on the crystal, a gift from the gods and source of energy. This artefact lies on the top of the main edifice, and gives energy to the entire island by flowing into its water, that flows in every corners of the city and beyond it, as far as the nearby ocean. This powerfull gift allows this magical haven to expand a lot, along the sea and as much skywards, in order to satisfy both the aquatics and aerials aspects of the Fairy Sirens.
Right now, seeing it, we just discovered this civilization, breaking off its perfect balance. Such an encounter involves some disorders, and it seems the Fairy Sirens are quite well defending their Resort.
The fact of reaching an utopian legend makes it accessible and usual, breaking off the myth around it. We can't have a benefit from a myth, and maybe we should stay away from it instead of rupture it.
Thanks to Iskillia, ThomasEsc, Antrelial and Lukasz for the nice renders.
Thanks to all who helped me by giving some ideas and advices !
