'''Turtle Grove''' is a settlement in [[Bankrekka]], the current survival world of the Ravenkraft Network. Located at −1441, 83, −141 in region r.-3.-1, approximately 1,441 blocks west and 141 blocks north of spawn, it is one of the more feature-rich near-spawn settlements in the western corridor. The same region contains the [[Aquarius (Bankrekka)|Aquarius Aquarium]], a large community build imported from the Diaspora world era.

== Settlement Layout ==

Turtle Grove sits at y=83 with significant vertical range — surrounding features extend from deep underground (y=7, TrainCarts) to high terrain (y=121+, mine and mushroom house). Named areas include:

=== Brickleberry Hill ===
An elevated district at approximately (−1478, 105, −379) named '''Brickleberry Hill'''. Two signs mark its boundary, and a third at (−1468, 106, −376) carries the unofficial tagline:

<blockquote>'''Made with 100% all-natural, locally-sourced ingredients.'''</blockquote>

=== Southeast Gate ===
A gated entrance structure at approximately (−1508, 106, −298 to −306) at y=106, confirming Turtle Grove has a defined perimeter with a named entry point.

=== Storage Complex ===
A row of community storage chests at (−1452, 71, −154 to −165), labeled across 12 categories:
Tools · ~Food~ · ~Mob Drops~ · ~Nether Stuffs~ · ~Minerals~ · ~Orgasmic Materials~ · ~Wood~ · ~Dirt~ · ~Sand/Gravel~ · ~Diorite/Granite/Andesite~ · ~Stone~ · ~Cobble~

=== Mine Complex ===
A mountain mine entrance at (−1528, 121, −393) with mine storage at y=127–128 (Copper, Brick, Dirt, Stone, Wood, Deepslate, Organic, Misc. Blocks). A '''Mushroom House Escape Hatch''' at (−1515, 121, −397) provides an alternate exit.

=== Park / Overlook ===
A named "Park / Overlook" at (−1211, 103, −128), elevated at y=103. The back of the sign reads "Hi!" — a greeting for approaching visitors.

== Infrastructure ==

=== Underground TrainCarts ===
A TrainCarts rail runs at the extreme depth of '''y=7''' (near bedrock) under the settlement at approximately (−1415–1416, 7, −117): slowgravity False, maxspeed 1.5. This is the deepest confirmed TrainCarts installation in the regions scanned to date.

=== Oasis Mining Co. Fireworks Machinery ===
A named automated fireworks launcher at (−1218, 74, −20) operated by '''Oasis Mining Co.''', with sign-controlled settings:
* Encore Burst — ON / OFF
* Fireworks — ON / OFF

The '''Red Dripstone Apparatus''' at (−1253, 70, −3) is a named redstone/dripstone mechanism in the same area.

== Historical Site — Server Meeting (August 13, 2016) ==

At approximately (−1252–1254, 105, −40), three signs document an old gathering site:

* "Server Meeting 8/13/16" — dated '''August 13, 2016'''
* "Git Gud"
* "Artifacts of the first fire pit gladitorial battles"

The 2016 date predates Bankrekka's 2022 founding by six years, indicating this is an import from [[Alpha Centauri IV]] or an earlier world. It likely marks the site of an old server event — a community meeting followed by gladiatorial combat at a fire pit arena. Among the oldest documented player-built artefacts in Bankrekka.

== Aquarius Aquarium ==

Region r.-3.-1 contains the [[Aquarius (Bankrekka)|Aquarius Aquarium]] at approximately (−1130, 70, −90), a large interactive community aquarium imported from the '''Diaspora''' world era. Originally a mining outpost built March 2020, it was expanded into a full aquarium complex with fish exhibits, a coral reef section, dolphin and turtle tanks, a gift shop, and a fish taxonomy display. Operated by player '''theoubre'''. See [[Aquarius (Bankrekka)]] for full details.
