Map Wide Hidden Build Contest for Revision 32

Once again, we want the community to help bring our next map to life!

We are looking for Magical Monuments! Wizard towers, mystic monoliths, alchemist shoppes, sacred temples, fairy villages, goblin strongholds, etc! Let your imagination flow, but please make sure they can easily be accessed without elytra.

We have been doing this style event for a while now, but in case you forgot here is a quick rundown. Padmins will hide the builds around the overworld before the revision launch for players to explore and find a collectible. We are limiting the complete set at 20-27 collectibles so we may not choose all builds entered.

Creative does not yet have sulfur and cinnabar so we will allow players to build in their single player worlds and turn in a litematica schematic to be pasted into the world and judged. If you do not have litematic, please work with a padmin to talk through options such as using a filler block that can be changed into the sulfur or cinnabar blocks once the build is put on an updated version.
