Today using inspirations from serveral of my personal minecraft builds submitted and not submitted. This is the second build competition that I am entering, I am going to use a few of my personal builds and build style as an inspiration to populate the sky world that Steve must live in. This is a large project and I will keep you updated daily as I work on this build.

Part A- Kuro Village Progress
Kuro Village is heavily inspired from my Akatsuki Village project as well as Asian style builds. Kuro Village has a mysterious history behind it, there's no worship shrine nor is there seemingly any inhabitants. The legend behind Kuro Village goes to say that the village is neither cursed nor blessed, but people who live in the village for a long time begin to lose their mind and think that the village is populated. The village maintains the aura of being lived in, but the truth is, Kuro Village is not of the world that Steve knows, and while it is beautiful it's also very dangerous to anyone who stays for too long.

Part B- Lake Kuro Hana
Lake Kuro Hana translates to Lake Black Flower from the Japanese wording of Kuro meaning 'black' and Hana meaning 'flower'. The lake is a large deep lake that lies away from the village with a single gravel path leading to the lake. Surrounding the lake is lushious grass and flowers with acacia trees to give plenty of shade. Glowstone lies below the water to provide some beautiful light from the lake at night time.

Part C- Chest Room and Dark Oak Forest path
Leading on from the bridge that lies across from Lake Kuro Hana lies a gravely path surrounded by sparce open dark oak trees with a lot of grassland area. It leads to the Chest Room, a room that contains many chests and a safe haven for the night. It's protected by a piston door entrance, the Forest path used to be a place where bandits preyed on weary travellers coming from Kuro Village.

Part D- Grandeous Bridge
Between the lake and the Dark Oak Forest path lies a grand bridge that opens out to the clouds, it appears suspended over the clouds, no one knows who created this bridge but this bridge does not show any sign of age, as if it were from another dimension unknown to humanity. Many historians have linked this bridge to the creation of Kuro Village. While the Lake has shown some signs of age, neither has the bridge nor Kuro Village which leaves historians to believe that the two are interlinked through some sort of historical conntection

Part E- Mysterious Cementary
Outside the Dark Oak Forest lies a strange cementary, the bodies of the dead do not linger in their graves, as though they were ghosted away or their ghastly residents. I've added some subtle references to video game characters as well as movie references.

Part F- The Nomadic Warrior House
The Nomadic Warrior lives in a house far away from Kuro Village, they live by the code of the Ninjari and the Katana, swearing their lives to learn their arts.
