Revision 22: The Meandering Maze

[Guest]

 

Archaeologist Bobbins was up late one night, reading through the poems of Revision 22 when another book fell into the pile. This book was different in that while it seemed like a poem, the words resonated and came to life as they were read out loud. Something was stirring at the Archaeologists' Guild...

 

A portal, created from ancient words carved itself into the wall and Archaeologist Bobbins stepped through to find a familiar world. The light coming through the glass ceiling illuminated the decay of the event hub. The vines hung downwards and the leaves reached upwards, both trying to escape from the event hub.

 

Despite the manner of disrepair, there was something new in the event hub.

 

"I have been waiting a long time for the right people to pass through this portal. To endure my trials. Escaping through this portal before the zombie hordes attacked that castle was my only hope. The last of my magic is within the Meandering Maze. Send word to your best adventurers. Tell them that Nilrem needs them."

 

=====================================================================

 

The padmins are introducing a gigantic maze as the next event on P! Help Nilrem to recover his power by finding 20 Shards of Power around the Meandering Maze.

PRIZES

Anyone who finds all 20 Shards of Power will receive:

 

This includes:

• 192 x Glowstone
• 64 x Gunpowder
• 32 x Diamonds
• 32 x Fragment of Amber
• 2 x Potion of Strength (8 minutes)
• 1 x Creeper Skull
• 1 x Map (as shown on the Shards of Power signs)
• 1 x Nilrem’s Focusing Crystal - Enchanted Flint
• 1 x Nilrem’s Power Pants - Diamond Leggings with:
  • Protection V
  • Unbreaking V
  • Mending
• 1 x Shulker Skull.

 

The first to find all 20 Shards of Power will receive the above and:

 

A creeper spawner. This will be placed at a location of your choosing in the overworld, provided it is within an area you have permission to place blocks at.

Padmins will actively be monitoring for 1st place and will reach out to coordinate the prize to the person who first finds all 20 unique Shards of Power. Should the creeper spawner not be placed within 2 weeks of the 1st place participant being contacted, we will contact the next person who found all 20, and so on until the spawner is placed.
 

The second to find all 20 Shards of Power will receive the above (not the creeper spawner) and:

 

A shulker spawner. This will be placed at a location of your choosing in the overworld, provided it is within an area you have permission to place blocks at.

 

Padmins will actively be monitoring for 2nd place too and will reach out to coordinate the prize to the person who first finds all 20 unique Shards of Power. Should the shulker spawner not be placed within 2 weeks of the 2nd place participant being contacted, we will contact the next person who found all 20, and so on until the spawner is placed.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

1) Head to spawn, at /place A_Guild

2) Head through the portal as shown here.

3) Click the sign near Nilrem in the purple section of the event hub.

4) Search through the Meandering Maze for 20 Shards of Power. These are demarcated by a sign and a map in an item frame such as this.

4a) We recommend storing all Shards of Power in the enderchests in the event hub so that they don't get lost!

5) If you want to exit the Meandering Maze at any time, click one of the 900+ exit signs that are littered throughout. They look like this.

6) Once you have found all 20 Shards of Power, return back to Nilrem, who is waiting near the warp sign to the Meandering Maze.

Do we have chests to store items in, or is there no risk of death? Or do we just take what we aren't afraid to lose?

There are lockable chests in the event area at spawn to store your items. There's no risk of death, but you can't bring items anyways.

Thanks!

Congratulations to Trooprm32 who was first to find all the Shards of Power and complete the maze, and to PPGOME who was in second place. They win the Creeper Spawner and the Shulker Spawner respectively.

A lot of people have persevered since the maze was released and quite a few are either recently finished or very close to finding all the shards. If you haven't quite finished yet, or have only just started - keep going! Nilrem's Power Box is on offer to everyone who manages to find all the shards, no matter how long it takes!

Well done to all winners so far, and good luck to everyone else!
