Diamonds in The Void

First horror series that I'll be upload :P Let's have some words-from-author thingy first XD

*********************************************************************************
Words from author
I would say that my English proficiency is considered as fair, not really good, but I have trouble with grammars for some reasons (lazy to improve). So maybe you guys that read what I wrote could help me correct what I did wrong and help me improve myself, maybe.. (Nobody reads my blog anyway ._. as of the time I update this story, there's total 0 people know how to get to this blog.) Anyway, I like writing these kind of stuff so I'll continue update the horror story series when I have more to write, but don't expect much though, I don't have those writers brain, me no able to think fastz 
*********************************************************************************

  Once upon a time, there's a young, smart, gorgeous, and kind merchant, his name was Unidentify91, he is a travelling merchant, he travels wherever he like and stop by any villages that he came to on his way. Unidentify91 wears a neat black suit with a white collared T and a black tie, he is easy to recognise due to not having a face, but how he looks like never scared anyone because he is gorgeous (IDK where i get this logic), other than facial feature, he also have a mule that helps him carry his stuff, 

and the last feature that helps identify him is that, he only sells iron blocks, gold blocks, and diamond blocks. 

Today, he travelled into a dessert, it has been awhile since he entered the dessert, being Unidentify91, he travels any direction he like without making any plan, as he thinks he had gotten lost in the dessert, he saw a village not far away from him.

He visited and looked around the village, and found the village worth staying, so he rent a plot from the village head and built a very simple house to store his stuff.

He then open up a booth in the town to sell his ore blocks, due to his gorgeousness and kindness and relatively affordable price, his ores sold out almost instantaneously after he open up his store.

He made a right decision stopping by this village, now he sold off all his stuff, he could live a decent living for around 2 or 3 years without working, but Unidentify91 is a travelling merchant, and he knows he can't stay in one place for long, so he decided to mine for some ores around the village mine and continues his journey to another town or village that he'll find next. 

He went around to look for an open mine, but couldn't find any, so he gave up for today and went back to the village to ask some villagers for mining location. The villagers are acting weird when Unidentify91 approaches them, he noticed it the other day when those villagers bought his ores too, non of the villagers seem to be friendly enough to talk to him, and the same happened today, everyone ignoring him, Unidentify91 do not understand what is going on, he is too tired from looking for an open mine the whole day.

  The next day, Unidentify91 woke up early and went out to look for open mine once again, he did not bother asking any villagers for clue because of what happened previously.
"They might just ignore me again, I don't really enjoy getting ignored, better find some mine and mine some ores and get the hell out of this town."
Having the thought in mind, Unidentify91 went out and look for open mine.

  After few hours of searching, he came to a small ruin just outside the town.

"Great, I was looking for the whole day to find this ruin on the other side of the town, just great..."
Unidentify91 complaint, but the grumpy mood didn't last long, simple minded Unidentify91 gets excited as he enters the ruin.

He noticed the blue cube as he approaches the entrance, he went close to the blue cube and examine it for a few minutes.

He decided to simply destroy the blue cube without having much thought about it, and happen to found a stair leads to deep down below.

The adrenaline clouded Unidentify91's common sense, he was too excited to think of what will be waiting at the end of the ladder, and his curiosity makes it worst, so he climbed down the ladder, climbing down and down and down until he reaches the bottom.


The ladder touches the ground at the bottom most part of the world, the ground was called "bedrock", and not a single record on earth shows that something is able to break the bedrock. Unidentify91 care less about what that is, he was searching for some ores to begin with. So he looked around at the small space around him. He found a weird looking room just beside the wall where the ladder ends.

He went into the room to check out what is in there. As he approaches the room, a chilly wind blows onto his face, and out of a sudden, he heard a weird moaning sound. A sound that sounded like someone unable to speak, not dumb, but can't speak, as if the person was trying to escape a hell. But most probably that was just Unidentify91's head playing with his mind. When he reached the room, he looked around and found out that the room is connected to "the void", or whatever other people would call the place.

It's a bottomless pit where no man had ever explored, and there was an urban legend said that where the void is visible, the will be unrest souls trying to escape from hell and go back to the surface of the earth. But no such thing is visible around the void, it was an urban legend after all.

That's all for the urban legend, Unidentify91 found out something that is far worth than verifying an urban legend, it was some diamond blocks that are hanging on the ceiling right beside the entrance.

"This must be my lucky day! 6 diamond blocks without using my pickaxe!"
Unidentify91 was in a very good mood, but somehow, his common sense was back, maybe because of the eerie feeling he had earlier. With his sense coming back, he took precaution before mining the diamond, he built some fences beside the empty space of the room to make sure the diamond would not fell into void, it would be a waste to let the precious diamond blocks to fall into void because of carelessness.

Now he can mine those blocks with ease. After he finish mining, he felt that the diamond blocks are slightly heavier than usual, most probably he was still disturbed by what happened when he enter this room. Now Unidentify91 finished mining the ores, he went back home to have a good rest.

  The second day, Unidentify91 somehow felt that there are something missing from the void room, he has a strong feeling that he needed to go back there to check out something, even though there is nothing amiss. So he went back to the void room right after he had some breakfast. 
 On the way to the ruin, Unidentify91 noticed that there are no villagers walking around, he don't really understand what is with the villagers here, maybe the villagers are not woken up yet, it is 5:00 AM in the morning after all. Unidentify91 did not think too much about the villagers and after few minutes of walking and climbing, he reached the void room again. 
"WOW! Lucky I came back here to check things out!"
Unidentify91 shouted as he found out a delightful thing, the diamonds he mined yesterday are spawning back by themselves!

Unidentify91 fell in love with the village at that moment, he did not care how the villagers act, because he found himself an infinite diamond mine! Day after day, Unidentify91 went back to mine the ores happily, and he couldn't wait for another day to come by, for the diamonds would only spawn the next day.



With all the diamonds he get, he did not keep the diamonds for himself, he put them up on sale in town, with relatively lower price than he tagged before, but no on seems to be visiting his shop any more, even if he went to the nearest town to sell his diamonds, nobody would go near to his shop, and people would chase him away of the town.


One day, Unidentify91 went missing, he never visits any other town anymore, and there were no news heard about Unidentify91. His room was left without a sign of escaping or leaving, his shop was abandoned.




Some say Unidentify91 went insane, some say Unidentify91 involved in an accident, but one thing we all know, the last time anyone saw Unidentify91 was when he was in the dessert town where he claimed in his diary that he found a infinite diamond mine.

Years later, investigation were held and a search party was organized, dedicated to search for the missing Unidentify91. From the clues that Unidentify91 left with his diary, the search party was able to find some disturbing results. The village was abandoned for at least 5 decades, old news reported that the village was haunted, but nobody actually believe that, the mystery was left unsolved. There was no diamonds mine, but an empty portal-look-a-like structure hanging on the ceiling discribed by Unidentify91. More disturbing findings were found after seeing some self portrait that Unidentify91 took. Unidentify91 clearly did not mine out any diamond block, but some weird looking block that nobody can identify.

Diamond blocks that I mined from infinite diamond mine is on sell!


The infinite diamond mine

The empty portal-look-a-like structure, stays empty, unlike what is found on Unidentify91's self portrait. Weeks later, another disturbing findings was found, it was reported that the weird looking things that Unidentify91 mined out appeared on the empty portal-look-a-like structure again.


Nobody can really identify what that is, but to some people, it looked like some unrest souls trying to escape the hell through the portal, into the earth...
Some says that Unidentify91 is one of the souls that are trying to escape, but nobody know for sure.

--The End--

Project Progress - Town spawn

Was thinking of designing a town spawn that can be used in a server, my creativity is limited tho xD so I had to refer on a lot of stuff and come out with some of my own, so this is what I planned. BTW, this is my first time building big projects, all the stuff below, other than outlining a circle are my first experience, I hope I could get better and be like a professional mincrafter :P.

Floor Plan
The floor plan was based on what GodsFire from Omega X gave me. Was building this for Omega X server after all. I redraw the floor plan according to what I had in mind, but I never plan on how the buildings would look like... As a result, this oversized tree and out of scale hallway were born XD

The Big Tree

-Texture pack : OzoCraft
I didn't even build the tree with proper size in mind, just felt like building a big trees, and as a result, the branches are wayyyy to long and they messed with my floor planning.

The Hallway

Took lot of efforts on this one, the roof was confusing, again I'll repeat, I did not plan on how these would look like, so I just built and modify however I like, as a result, making a second replica was a headache, had to kept on referring to the first structure. BTW, it's incomplete XD

The Hallway II
This is how it looks like from the inside, notice the pillars are all different on the left side, that was because I never plan how the thing would look like when it's done XD so I had to try making it with different style and pick one that I think the best. 

But everything is not really according to my floor plan, and I don feel like continuing this map anymore, so I decided to build in a new map, so I started with a super flat map and built some basic stuff first.

The Base
You might notice I used black and white wools on previous picture and this one, that's a new habit that I pick up, it's for measuring the distance :P anyway, here's what I had in mind, I wanted to build some good looking garden around the big trees before making the hallway, I try to lay out the base of each structures before I proceed on building. For the pic above, I decided to make the tree house inside the circle, I'm not sure it'll look good when I'm done with it, but I'll do my best :P

Middle Base
I was thinking of building a small room which will be implemented on the root of the big tree, but turned out that the little house is a big too tall for the tree roots to look more natural, so I'll remove the house when I'm going to continue the project next time. 

Below are two pictures of what it'll look like standing in front of the entrance

Entrance from outside
Not fancy? I know :( We'll see how it'll look like when The tree is built and the garden is decorated more, I hope it'll be amazing.

Entrance from inside
Not fancy again x.x man... I hope everything'll be okay.

Introduction

This is a boring introduction that you should probably skip this before you raged and demand some ransom for wasting few minutes of your life! XD


So.. This' the first post for the blog.. Let's make a simple introduction then XD
I'm writing this blog to record interesting stuff happens around me in minecraft, other than that, I would like to update stuff like some short story I would wrote, and some random stuff bout the games. Speaking of random, here's a potato for anyone that'll happen to read this.

anyway, I've been having Minecraft with me for years, but I just get premium account recently (25th July 2013) 'cause I felt this game is worth it, in my place, the game is not cheap, but I consider it's worth the money in long run. there were some active periods but mostly inactive, I even remove the game once 'cause it's eating up space on my laptop XD Well, I'm running on a crappy laptop which is at least 5 years old by the time I post this out, and the graphic card is probably dead, my laptop screen went crazy, there're many lines running up and down. I'm not in condition to support a new laptop though, so what I did was that, I plug in an old monitor to my laptop and yea, you could imagine how I'm doing right now, the laptop is acting like a CPU, crappy CPU XD Don't get me wrong though, I'm not too poor to afford a new laptop, just that I had a little bit of teeth issue that costed me quite a fortune, namely root canal treatment, and a trolling wisdom that needed to be extract through little surgery. But the main reason I can't afford is that I'm too lazy to get a job XD opss.. Anyway I'm looking forward to maintain this blog! Even though there'll be no followers or readers here. AHAHAHahahaha.... Well that's sad.... oh well, happy blogging to me
