Land Of Mirador



The photos above are in no way a representation of everything that's been done.


**************************

This has been a large, ongoing project. In this world, every detail matters, from the snow on a frozen peak, to a cobwebbed corner in an attic. At first, I was just going to just make a public RPG server where everyone who wanted to could log in, quest, and explore. Although this dream will still happen eventually, a much different idea presented itself about 1 month into the world's creation. Now my goal is to make one of the best Minecraft movies there has been, using many, many mods and plugins along with 'emotional' voice actors to step out of the boundaries and create a project previously thought impossible.

When done, this world will take up around 50 normal Minecraft maps. Each map will represent a different continent. In other words, there's still a billions of blocks to go!

A Prologue of Sorts:


It is a normal day in the capital city of Abengal. King David Greenwell glances out over the city from his bedroom window. The day is bright and clear, and the sounds of people laughing and dogs barking float to him from over the horizon. David smiles and his eyes twinkle with a hidden joy deep inside. He feels like laughing; going into the streets and dancing with his citizens. The world is a good place to be.

David Greenwell ambles downstairs and sits at the great table with all the colorful lords and ladies, chatting amongst themselves with pleasure. Then the food is brought. Fruit is piled high in delicate patterns; eggs and bacon are cooked until golden brown; and hot, sugary pastries shine in the soft light. The feast begins. But, no later than it does, the big oak doors of the great hall are slammed open. A lone figure stumbles in, dressed in rags. His feet are bare and bleeding. The man's eyes search the hall with madness.

"My king!" He rasps, " H-ho-horrible news!"

Darius, the golden knight stands from his seat and runs to the man, catching him as he falls. "Whoa there. Slow down and talk plainly. What is this horrible news you speak of?"

The man's thin, trembling fingers reach inside his cloak and pull out a note. "Sh-sh-she-sheping f-f-fell... Help...." Then the man was silent.


"He has traveled for days on foot," says Darius. "He must be attended to immediately." He pauses and hands the note to King Greenwell before carrying the limp man to the infirmary. "My king; I fear what message may be hidden here."

Darius exits the hall and the doors close behind him with a thud. The banquet hall is silent. Slowly, David Greenwell unfolds the yellow parchment, then reads what has been written there.

My king,

Please help us. At the time I write this great peril has befallen us. The forest has always given us what we need until now. A few weeks ago, little Mary Ginley went missing. We went looking for her but could not find any trace of her. Then others started disappearing also. One of them was my wife. I fear that HE has returned to finish what he started so long ago. We cannot protect it from him forever... and... if he gets hold of it, the heavens shall be doomed and the Earth destroyed. Please, we need you, fast.

David Greenwell's skin has turned white and his body trembles. He can't have returned. Impossible! He thinks. At that moment, Darius opens the doors of the hall once again.


"Darius!" King Greenwell yells, leaping up from the table. Our fears from all those years ago have once again come to pass. Take your best men to Sheping Fell at once! This time, he doesn't escape."

**************************

The Rite of Dark:
O dark lord of terror, gift us with an artifact to bring us salvation for ourselves and everyone around us. Let the darkness wash down around the world, so that all may soon wish to perish. We will stand ever watchful over your shrine, dark one, in wait of your coming. And the judgement of all; those faithful and those not, so that the world may be purged by fire and cast into the great pit of Reyva'Zel. May all worship the ground you walk on, dark one, when you come and bestow your gifts upon the faithful and exact revenge on the wicked.

The Rite of Sacrifice:


O dark one, father of all of your sons, and keeper of the shadows, accept our gift of blood and visit upon us, so we may look upon your glory in all of its majesty, and reap the rewards of faith.

Reaching the Cathedral:



The sun barely peeks over the Mountains of green as I walk the well-trodden path. My mind searches and my heart feels uneasy. The path before me curves and winds around hills and valleys. My feet grow tired and I think to myself that it is about time to take a rest. Then, before me a monumental sight greets my eyes. It stretches out of the ground like a great tree; sturdy and yet beautiful. Its towers gleam in the sunrise light and I catch glimpses of gold within reflecting windows. A river is near, and the water is pure and clean. I see gems sparkling as I draw near. My legs begin to shake and I can no longer move. I grab my face as I watch the eternally strong. It stares at me whispering, "Come now little one. Do not be afraid. Your journey is now at an end." It draws me closer and closer and I begin to weep tears of joy. I am finally at peace.

Where are the Schematics or World Save Files?

I will release different towns, structures, or terrain that I feel comfortable releasing when they're done.

When they are released, feel free to use them for public servers as long as you give credit where credit is due. However, if you want to film one, please ask permission beforehand. Thanks!

All other schematics shall be released as seperate projects but will most likely be involved with this one.

Pretty much every other project I release is a part of this one. Check them out!



Consider checking out my Youtube channel for cinematic videos of different parts of this project.



If you like this project, please leave a diamond, favorite, or comment. Thanks!
