Maybe I can make a stronger one, that is more powerful, to draw out some Divine Essence.

They speak of an ancient warden who guards it...
—
Obtain a Blast Furnace obtain_blast_furnace Obtain Item Obtain 1× Blast Furnace — Stellar Core Smelting ores must be done at high temperature.

If I reinforce one, maybe it will smelt faster.
—

—

Whoever made the monuments must have a mastery over water, through natural or artificial means.
Maybe I can find an artifact that holds the key?
—
Obtain a Heavy Core obtain_heavy_core Obtain Item Obtain 1× Heavy Core — Charm of Magnetism I have heard whispers of buried chambers, designed by some unknown entity or collective to test others.
Supposedly, these chambers contain rewards for those who are capable enough to defeat their trials.

I might have a few uses for such a thing.
—
Obtain a Lightning Rod obtain_lightning_rod Obtain Item Obtain 1× any Lightning Rods — Altar of the Stormcaller, Runic Storm Arrows Lightning is an amazing natural occurrence!
Unfortunately, it seems to strike randomly during intense thunderstorms, which don't happen often.
I might not be able to make lightning occur, but perhaps I can at the very least get it where I want.
Lightning leaves a unique taste in the air, it smells like old copper. That is a good place to start.
—
Obtain a Mace obtain_mace Obtain Item Obtain 1× Mace Obtain a Heavy Core Graviton Maul This heavy core is stranger than expected.
It certainly lives up to the name, however its weight has some variation to it?
The dark core within seems to have some control over its local gravity field.

—

Soul Sand seems to have a small amount of this energy stored within it, and I have found some evidence to suggest ancient beings feared an entity comprised of this soul-harboring material.
I wish to find this entity, and study its potential.
—
Obtain a Netherite Ingot obtain_netherite_ingot Obtain Item Obtain 1× Netherite Ingot Discover the Strongest Material, Obtain a Gold Ingot Alchemical Arbalest, Arcane Singularity, Astral Gateway, Charm of Cinders, Geomantic Stele, Graviton Maul, Levitation Harness, Overflowing Quiver, Runic Bow, Shield of Fortitude, Sojourner's Boots, Soulstone, Spawner Harness, Spawner Infuser, Stellar Core, Twilight Anvil This ancient debris is certainly something!
Fire-proof, blast-proof, harder than diamond!

Maybe combining iron and redstone could work?
—

I will find a substance to treat the arrows with.
—

I wonder how similar their brain is to other creatures I have encountered in the world.
—
Obtain an Amethyst Cluster obtain_amethyst_cluster Obtain Item Obtain 1× Amethyst Cluster Obtain an Amethyst Shard, Obtain Silk Touch Runic Photonic Arrows Amethyst shards have proven to be invaluable.
However, they are very fragile and break apart when I try to collect them from their geode.
If I can get my hands on bigger chunks of them, the cluster will be capable of harnessing and focusing much greater amounts of arcane energy.
Maybe this Silk Touch enchantment can lend a hand?
—
Obtain an Amethyst Shard obtain_amethyst_shard Obtain Item Obtain 1× Amethyst Shard — Geomantic Stele, Runic Expulsion Arrows, Runic Matrix, Transmutation Altar Crystals are far more than just pretty rocks.
Their ordered structure is perfect for withstanding immense energy and even changing and channeling it.
Unfortunately, they take millennia to form naturally, and synthesizing them is beyond my capabilities.
I must find a good source of suitable crystals.
—
Obtain an Anvil obtain_anvil Obtain Item Obtain 1× Anvil — Twilight Anvil I wish I had a way to repair my equipment.
I have some scrap metal that could be used to patch up my tools and armor but if I try to hammer it on, the surface beneath caves in.
I need something sturdy to withstand my hammer.
—
Obtain an Egg obtain_egg Obtain Item Obtain 1× any Eggs — Essence Egg Some species do not perform live birth, they gestate in external eggs until they are ready to be born.

Many have set out in search of the mysterious Enchanted Golden Apple, but few ever find one.
I assume they used to be made through a secret Arcane recipe that has been lost to time.
I wonder if I can extract some Arcana from one of these apples to create something... novel.
—
Obtain an End Crystal obtain_end_crystal Obtain Item Obtain 1× End Crystal — Exotic Matter, Fractal Sponge, Interdictor, Runic Matrix This world contains some artifacts displaying some impressive properties and craftsmanship.

—
Obtain an Eye of Ender obtain_eye_of_ender Obtain Item Obtain 1× Eye of Ender Use an Ender Pearl Ender Crate, Planeshifter, Tome of Arcana Novum Endermen are the only interdimensional travellers that I have found, despite evidence of others.
They also manage to do dimension hop without a portal.
I believe their eyes have something to do with it, but upon their death, their eyes glaze over and can only be used to teleport a short distance.
Maybe I can reawaken their natural abilities?
—
Obtain Bottles of Experience obtain_bottles_of_enchanting Obtain Item Obtain 1× Bottle o' Enchanting — Brain in a Jar, Midnight Enchanter, Twilight Anvil Experience is a strange substance, it is partly ethereal but still has some physicality to it.

The Enchanting Table sends some type of Arcana into nearby books and pulls it back after the knowledge infuses the arcane energy.
This altered arcane energy can produce any one of a vast many possible enchantment effects.
The enchantment essence is nebulous until used.
Maybe I can revert the enchantment Arcana back into this nebulous state, and isolate it.
—
Obtain Quartz obtain_quartz Obtain Item Obtain 1× Nether Quartz — Mundane Augmentation Catalyst Crystals are far more than just pretty rocks.
Their ordered structure is perfect for withstanding immense energy and even changing and channeling it.
Unfortunately, they take millennia to form naturally, and synthesizing them is beyond my capabilities.
I wonder if the Nether produces crystal formations?
—
Obtain Silk Touch obtain_silk_touch Custom — — Spawner Harness The process of destroying and re-placing blocks has proven to be too clumsy to relocate some more delicate materials like glass and grass.
Perhaps there is a way to be more careful when using my tools to break down delicate blocks.
—
Obtain Stardust obtain_stardust Obtain Item Obtain 1× Stardust Enchant an Item Arcane Singularity, Astral Gateway, Binary Blades, Celestial Altar, Starpath Altar Enchantments bind to equipment in a unique way.
Beyond the enchantment Arcana, they alter the material they bind to, to a small extent.
There may be a way to isolate and concentrate the enhanced material so that this effect can be replicated independently of enchantment.
Theoretically, this would look like a powder that exhibits some latent arcane properties.
—

I can't keep letting this happen! I am going to light up the entire area around my base!

—
Research the Exotic Matter unlock_exotic_matter Arcana Item Unlock Unlock Exotic Matter — Astral Gateway, Continuum Anchor, Interdictor This contraption requires a substance that can cause warps in the fabric of space-time.

Somehow, just hearing its name makes me sick to my stomach.
However, none of my more recent sources mention anything of Tenbrous, or a storm within the End.
Something interesting of note is the connection between Tenbrous and the green color associated with the End Portal and the color of Endermen's eyes after their demise.
I wonder what happened to this ancient force of devastation.
—
The Wings of Enderia obtain_wings_of_enderia Obtain Item Obtain 1× Armored Wings of Enderia — Armored Wings of Enderia Enderia, the fabled Empress of The End...

Use an Ender Chest use_ender_chest Statistic Ender Chests Opened: 1 Obtain an Eye of Ender Arcanist's Belt, Brain in a Jar, Chest Translocator, Containment Circlet, Ender Crate I have found a new use for Eyes of Ender.
Aside from their natural homing ability that I recently discovered, they seem to also peer through dimensions, maybe for extra navigation?
However the Endermen warp themselves, they briefly enter an interdimensional space, an astral void.
I might be able to use this place for storage.
—
