[So its maybe looks strange]
[Author Introduction]
Hello everyone, I’m player mycoffee1749
A few years ago, I was inspired by Game of Thrones and wanted to create my own Minecraft story with war elements. That’s how the Villagers and Battles series was born.
At first, I recorded the story alone in Minecraft, but later I realized my technical skills were lacking, and the results were far from what I envisioned.
(In other words, it was pretty bad. Please don’t search for it on YouTube, or I’ll die of embarrassment.)
So, I stopped updating for quite a while.
Recently, I got a sudden burst of inspiration and started working on a map for this story.
By the way, there was a one-year gap between making Chapter 1 and Chapter 2, so starting from Chapter 2, the maps are much better.
(Chapter 1’s monsters and plot might feel a bit weird.)
Also, this map isn’t fully complete yet.
Things like wild mobs, side quests, story polish, and some systems are still in progress, so there will be updates in the future.
[Story]
You are a Minecraft player who one day arrives in this world.
In this world, your story is as follows:
As a child, you heard the legend of the "Emerald Sword."
According to the legend, it once defeated some incredibly powerful beings.
Now grown up, you decide to set out to find it.
[Building Showcase]
Since I’m not particularly skilled at building, most of the structures might look boxy.
However, I’ve tried my best to add as much content as possible.

[Map Features]
Magic
There are magic books scattered across the map that allow you to use magic once obtained.
Some can only be used in specific areas (I think there’s only one, which is grass-related).
Others can be used anywhere.
However, magic books and magic don’t have many uses yet. I’ll find ways to improve their role in the future.
War
In the wars in the later two chapters, "players" will assist you, or you’ll team up with pillagers to raid villages.
You can get a glimpse of this in the promotional video.
Respawn Anchors and Mysterious Blocks
In the first two chapters, there are respawn points and command blocks for quick travel between the two kingdoms.
Later chapters don’t have these, but respawn points are mostly set automatically, and there’s no plot that requires running long distances.
Difficulty
Some of the regular mobs in this map are even harder than bosses!
And since they’re just like vanilla mobs, they’re not particularly special. Even if you’re skilled, you might lose to them.
So, if you’re someone with no skills but enjoys getting wrecked by mobs, give it a try!
Story Recap Videos
After completing the main storyline, there are story videos you can watch.
They’re text-only, but they let you take a break and fill in parts of the story not seen in the map.
These are available on YouTube.
Story Display Cases
Starting from Chapter 2, some plot points feature display cases.
Through interactions and dialogue with armor stands in these cases, you can…
waste even more time on this map!
Others
There are also weapon and equipment upgrade systems, commission quests, witty NPC dialogue, and different currencies for each kingdom.
Since these are common in many maps, I won’t call them unique features.
[Notes]
Player Count
This map is for single-player only.
I didn’t plan thoroughly when I made it, so many settings are designed for solo play, and multiplayer has bugs.
However, after dying in boss fights, you’ll usually respawn nearby, so you won’t get stuck.
Version
Please use Java Edition 1.16.5.
Other versions may cause issues with commands or other settings.
Map Warnings
Since this was made by one person, it might not meet your expectations.
If you encounter bugs or have suggestions, please report them below. I’ll check them all.
Mode
This map is cursed, which is why you’ll be stuck in Adventure Mode after entering.
You cannot switch to Creative Mode on your own.
Server
Please don’t put the map file on a server.
It can cause issues with spawn points.
I’ve tested it multiple times privately, and single-player should be fine.
Shaders and Other Mods
Please don’t play with shaders or other mods.
Vanilla is guaranteed to work.
During testing, I found that some shaders cause the screen to go almost completely black.
Unless you want to play a horror game, don’t try it.
LAN Settings
This is very, very important.
After opening a single-player world, go to the LAN settings and enable cheats.
Otherwise, magic books won’t work.
Of course, if you don’t want to use them, you can ignore this.
Weird Plot
Some of the plot dialogue in this map is very strange and might feel illogical.
For example, in Chapter 1, the protagonist meets an adventurer who tells them to explore a pyramid because the Emerald Sword might be there.
When the protagonist asks why, the adventurer says:
"Because it feels like the Pharaoh is really strong."
Protagonist:

Yes, it’s just me.
I made this not-so-great map all by myself.
I feel like I’m not that impressive, but also kind of impressive at the same time.

Just take a look. It gives you a rough idea of the gameplay content.
