Antsylvania (Zothique)
Antsylvania is a player settlement in the northern reaches of Zothique, situated along the Purpur Line corridor. The settlement is the overworld destination referenced in nether r.0.−1 as "Avignon & Zerzura (Antsylvania)," confirming it as the city built by player antnachos.
Layout[edit]
The settlement occupies a hillside area at roughly X:1050–1270, Z:−3000 to −2910. It is organised around several distinct districts:
- Village Transport Hub — a villager-powered transport system at X:1055, Z:−3046, signed "Villagers only, please"
- Shrine of the Two — a named shrine at X:1060, Z:−2999
- Villager Commune — a community building at X:1084, Z:−3000
- Market Row — a dense commercial strip at roughly X:1200–1255, Z:−2950 to −2975, including:
- Bakery — selling bread, carrots, baked potato
- Ant's Flowers & Dyes — flower and dye shop operated by antnachos
- General Store & Sign Shop — signs, banners (alphabetically sorted A–Z), and bulk materials
- Resource Complex — a large underground sorting facility at X:1135–1151, Z:−2946, with labelled bays for Misc, Wood, Weapons & Armor, Tools, and Smelting. Holds reserves of cobblestone, stone, redstone, bone, cactus, netherrack, and other materials.
- Two FOR RENT plots at X:1223 and X:1233 — undeveloped; accepting applications at time of archiving.
Scavenger Hunt Connection[edit]
A chest in the resource complex (X:1144, Z:−2942) contained 13 of the 16 clues from RyanPhantom's cross-world scavenger hunt, including a contribution from _Dexter_Grif_ (Clue #7). Locations referenced across the hunt include Rushmore, Aradia, Wysteria, Britlands, the nether dome, a wheat farm, and PumpkinDog in Aradia.
The chest was discovered by archivists in 2026, intact, representing the most complete surviving physical record of the hunt.
Transit[edit]
Antsylvania is served by the Purpur Line, accessible via the villager transport hub at the northern entrance. Estimated nether portal: X:132, Z:−375 (nether r.0.−1 region).
