Insane Minecraft Caves! Hidden Glittering Secrets!

Heyo welcome back everybody to The Hobbit Minecraft Survival Guide guys thank you so much for making it back again I have so much in store for you guys today I have so many treats I have been building forever but I’m really proud of this one do you know the tale

Of gimly glowing son and how he became the lord of the glittering caves of Helms Deep well guess what today we’re going to talk about it we’re going to build it it’s one of my finest builds yet I cannot wait to show you guys what

I’ve got inside here you can kind of get some little Peaks I’m giving away too much here I’m giving away too much I’m giving away too much so uh let’s go ahead and run outside here I’m going to show you guys the entryway we’re going

To do a little time lapse and then I’m going to walk you guys through the glittering cave so if you like this content if you like gimly glowing sun go ahead and smash that like button smash that subscribe button just like you’re smashing a few orhe heads off with your

Finest battle axe but that’s enough for now let’s get Started in The Lord of the Rings The Two Tower in the chapter the road to Eisen guard gimly and legalists are having a conversation about all the wondrous things that they’ve seen so far but there’s a particular part of the chapter I’d like to read which really gives some

Beautiful details about the glittering Caves strange are the ways of men legalis here they have one of the marvels of the northern world and what do they say of it caves they say caves holes to fly to in a time of War or to store fodder in my good legless do you

Know that the caverns of Helms Deep are vast and Beautiful there would be an endless pilgrimage of dwarves merely to gaze at them if such things were known to be I indeed they would pay pure gold just for a brief glance and I would give gold to be excused said legalis and double to be let out if I strayed In you have not seen so I forgive your chest said gimly but you speak like a fool do you think those Halls are fair where your king dwells under the hill in merkwood and dwarves helped in their making long ago they are but hubbles compared to the caverns I have seen here

Immeasurable Halls filled with an everlasting music of water that Tinkles into pools as Fair Karam in the Starlight and legalis when the Torches are kindled and Men walk on the Sandy floors under the echoing domes ah then legalis gems and crystals and veins of precious ore glint in the polished walls

And the light glows through marbles shell likee translucent as the living hands of Queen gadriel There are columns of white and saffron and Dawn Rose like this fluted and twisted into dreamlike forms they spring up from many colored floors to meet the glistening penants of the roof Wings ropes curtains fine as Frozen clouds Spears B bers Pinnacles of suspended palaces still Lakes mirror

Them a glimmering world looks up from dark pools covered with the clear glass cities such as the mind as Duren could scarce have imagined in his Sleep [Applause] Stretch on through Avenues and pillared courts on into dark recesses where no light can come and plink a silver Drop Falls and the round wrinkles in the glass make all the towers Bend and waver like weeds and Corals in a grotto of the sea Then evening comes they fade and twinkle out the Torches pass on into another chamber and another dream there’s another chamber after chamber legless Hall opening out of the hall Dome after Dome stare Beyond stare and still the winding paths lead on into the Mountain’s heart caves the caverns of Helms Deep happy

Was the chance that drove me in there it makes me weep to leave Them Then I wish you this Fortune for your comfort gimle said the elf that you may come safe from war and return to see them again but do not tell all your Kindred there seems little left for them to do from your account maybe the men of

This land are wise to say little one family of busy dwarves hammer and chisel might Mar more than they made No you do not understand said gimy no dwarf could be unmoved by such loveliness none of Duran’s race would mine those caves for stones or ore not if diamonds and gold could be got There do you cut down Groves of blossoming trees in the springtime for firewood we would tend these glazes of flowering Stone not Quarry them with cautious skill tap by tap a small chip of rock and no more perhaps in a whole anxious day so we could work and as the

Years went by we should open up new ways and display far Chambers that are still Dark glimpsed only as void Beyond fissures in the Rock and lights legalis we should make lights such lamps as once shown in Kaza doom and when we wished we would drive away the night that has lay there since the hills were made and when we desired rest we would let the night Return Now So when I was building Helms Deep here in the first place I was looking for a location that had a really cool backdrop because I really love the idea of the glittering caves you can’t find a lot of references online there’s not a ton of pictures not

A lot of people talk about them because there’s just not a lot of content from toking himself about it we get some beautiful ideas and words written but really the picture is just the whole picture was just left to my imagination so this is kind of my interpretation of

It I found this really cool Mountain here in the background and I found out that it was a dripstone cave so I decided to just forge my way through here make a really cool cave entrance and let’s just go ahead enough of my Javin let’s just go ahead and take a

Look so I worked on a cool entrance here a little detail there to show you like hey there’s some dripstone in here entryway here the glittering case of agaron actually this area was originally known as agaron by The Elves and it wasn’t later named Helms Deep till the humans took over

Later so cool little entryway here I’m so proud of this place I just dug a big hole and then I just kind of went with themes lots of barrels the M shaft uh feel with all of the beams and stuff each different section I tried to uh incorporate specific types of ores you

Know and make them look cool so we start off with like a little lapis corner here sorry I’m kind of making myself dizzy there and as we head up this way a little bit you get a redstone cave entrance here uh I did had to go out and

Find a ton of dripstone cuz I didn’t want to mine the dripstone that was inside cuz I wanted that to be available still I did cool little veins of of the amethyst just kind of running through here hit a nice little gold pocket down here this is all well lit I haven’t seen

Anything spawn in here since I made it but that doesn’t mean anything I really like this gold corner here some of the deep slate and some of the normal stone gold in there some of the uh polished GR It On The Ground there with the dripstone oh great Textures and as we head further down here I try to throw little ideas like little glimpses like oh what are we coming up on here oh there’s a lot of copper Cool Copper corner you know some of it’s already changed the colors cuz it’s been discolored we keep heading down here

More veins and now this one took a little bit of time because as you know this these emeralds are tough to find they are super rare I have not found any deep slate ones yet which is a bummer but for now this is just one of my

Stashes head down this way a little bit further and then kind of a uh little quartz corner with a sea lantern some of the quartz blocks turned into quartz bricks for a little bit more texture there and then an awesome iron section running through here it was so

Much fun just being creative and decorating make sure to hit that like And subscribe button baby come on now I know you want to kazad doom and if we turn immediately to a side here oh mama look at this room oh it’s beautiful oh I love it it was hard not

To forch in all these diamonds but it was definitely worth it oh don’t look at that corner hold on do not look at that corner got much better okay let’s get here before I find something else and so as we head through this last part here we finally started heading

Into the actual Cavern here which you guys saw me build in the Tim laps but I’ll kind of explain things as I go oh I did a lot of terraforming in here when I first got in it was kind of empty I built a bunch I try to fill out

Every corner so as you’re walking through and you look through directions you’re seeing stuff you’re seeing different colors pop you know it’s a lot of brown it’s a lot of gray I found a cool design a line for these amethyst um trees oh so neat I wish I had some more

End rods I would have made this pop a little bit more little basic vegetation here around the sides I built kind of like a gang plank walkway you look over the corner there’s more trees if you guys saw there I built a river down through this whole

Thing oh I’m so proud of this place the drip Stone looks really good coming around the corner here I love that this little Valley is out here kind of a a really neat little look but I’m thinking about covering it up with uh some glass maybe some tinted glass

Later as we kep keep heading down we see another one of the trees a lot more dripstone and then over here on the left side you see my one of my little handmade uh amethyst geod I used some of the green accents around the outside

With a sea lantern in the middle there I really fell in love with that I might do another one on the other side there see if I can do some parkour parkour oh fail round two maybe higher parkour super higher Park oh no double fail okay okay we’re back we’re back

I love this big tree down here some Greenery just to add some extra pop you can see over there a huge copper section there just top to bottom so much copper and then as you turn the corner here bushes a little bit wide but I really

Made this should make this a little bit taller too but I love this last little amethyst tree here kind of just finishes the gang the gang way the walkway here and and it just gives you just a cool little Lookout space here to just take a look I love this Redstone

Section really proud of all this guys if you guys have any more ideas please let me know I wish I was trying to find some shaders to make all this stuff pop the last minute but I just ran out of time and I think it looks a pretty good

Without them what do you guys think more amethyst more amethyst more more you guys thank you so much for hanging out with us for another episode of The Hobbit Minecraft Survival Guide I had so much fun making this build I had so much fun rereading the story getting
