A Wild Start | Ep. 1 | Minecraft Empires 1.19

[UPBEAT INTRO MUSIC] Hey guys, what’s up? LDShadow Lady here and welcome to Empires season two. In this smp, my friends and I are back with brand new characters to each build our own empire. So we all gathered here at spawn in the friendship circle,

But then everyone ran off to claim their biomes and the chaos began. I managed to make it out of there alive without losing my head. I did, however, managed to grab somebody else’s head though. So now, I have smallish beans’ disguise. This will come in handy. I’m sure.

I plan to collect many disguises but for now, I will use this one because I’m not really to reveal my identity just yet. But first, I need to found my empire and I’d like to settle in a birch biome. So let’s have a little snoop around and find a nice spot.

This is it. This is where I will found my empire. This place has everything, a beautiful mountain view with some spruce trees up there. A dark oak forest, a birch forest, and an oak forest. So now I will place my first crafting table to claim the land.

Now I’ve gathered some of the basics, but if I want my empire to survive, nay thrive. I’m gonna need a few more things. Shelter and food. And to help me on my quest, I’m going to enlist the help of some animals.

So let’s start with the first one and build ourselves a shelter because my campsite is currently very open to the elements. So I think a little tent would be cute, which means I need to find a sheep.

Well hello there sir. Can I interest you in becoming the founding member of a brand new empire? I can see you’re intrigued. Follow me, I’ll tell you more. Now unfortunately the position does come with a few conditions. You will have to live in a cage for now.

But don’t worry, I will build you a home very soon. Now, I hope you don’t mind being sheered. Thank you for your contributions to my tent. So while I was waiting for our fluffy friend to regrow his wool, I constructed the tent.

It might not look like much but every empire has to start somewhere. Now I have this lovely cozy home to sleep away the nights. And when I wake up in the morning, I have the most amazing view. But don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about you.

I told you I’d build your home too and that is what I’ll do next. You can have your own little tent over here. So I spent all day constructing a miniature tent for my favourite fluffy founding father. Tada. Do you love it? He loves it.

Now you might think it’s a little strange that I made a whole tent just for my sheep. But what you don’t know is that animals are the secret to my empire’s success. This sheep has already provided me with the necessary shelter I needed to survive.

And now it’s time to take care of my next need, food. And what I’m about to do next may come as a shock to you, but I need to find a fox. Luckily, there’s a spruce biome just north of my camp. So let’s see if we can back one down. A fox.

Come here, come here. Gotcha. Now we have two foxes, we just need to breed them. Perfect. My baby fox. It’s so cute. Look at him. Okay. Come on then. Let’s go. Little fox child. Come on. We have important work to do. I have a very important job for you.

Do not be alarmed. I’m not going to eat the fox. But he is going to help me make some food. So why don’t you stay here, while I make you a little tent. Now this might be a little ambitious, but I wanna try and build a diagonal tent

Because I want something special for my special little boy. And there we have it, a diagonal tent. My boy. You’ve grown. What a majestic young man you’ve turned into. And just in time for your new career in Chicken Life Management.

So now all I have to do is build a contraption to create a never ending supply of chickens, and my new adorable companion will do all the butchering for me. However, to build this chicken contraption, I’m gonna need some advanced machinery. Just a slight oversight on my part.

Which means I’m now gonna have to go and get some redstone and quartz. And my plan is to descend down this very deep hole. There’s got to be some redstone at the bottom of there. It’s a lush cave. Oh no. Help me. What a lovely place to die.

Let’s just make a run for it. This is embarrassing, but I am hiding in a hole right now. Maybe I’ll just mine my way out. Some armour would probably be a good idea. I don’t know what I was thinking coming down here without it. Whoa. Cool. Oh my gosh.

Maybe I shouldn’t be here. Goodbye. Yeah, I’m not going down there. No, siree. Not today. We’re taking a diversion boys. I will not be warden lunch today. Diamond? My first diamond. But really I’m looking for Redstone. Where is it? Oh no. No. No. No.

I don’t think I should be here, but there might be Redstone. Actually, I should leave. How do I… Redstone. Okay? Okay, let’s get out of here. I got what I came for. I do not want to die today. I think that was rather masterfully handled if I may say so myself.

[LIZZIE GASPS] Alright. That’s enough of that scary cave. Now, I can only take so much exciting in one day, so I will not be going to the nether to go and get my quartz. I have another plan instead. I’m going to open up a new trade route, In an eastanly direction.

So, I have armed myself with several spades and I will make a path this way. Mostly so I can find my way back home, but it doesn’t hurt to have a nice established pathway between the empire. It makes my empire seem very sophisticated. The other rulers are probably really busy right now,

Working on some important business. And here I am building a cute path. There it is. Another civilization. Greetings fellow ruler. Joel: Hello there. Joel: Where did you come from? I’ve opened up a trade route from my empire to yours. Joel: What have you got to trade?

I would like some of your quartz, please. Joel: And in return, I get? How about a diamond? Joel: What? Okay, yeah sure, take the quartz. Here have it all. Thank you. Thank you. I’ll be going now. Alright. I’ve got my quartz. Let’s head home.

I don’t wanna stray too far from my empire. Home, sweet home. Now, I can make my machinery and put it all together. Okay. The contraption is set. So now the machine works. Baby chickens spawn underneath the fox and then when they grow up he attacks them

And then I collect all of the food. So now that I have an unlimited supply of chicken, it’s time to focus on my next important task, getting more citizens to join the empire. And I have decided to travel to some very distant lands to find some unique citizens, from the jungle.

The only problem is I don’t actually live near a jungle. The nearest jungle is thousands of blocks away. So this will be a very long journey. Finally, the sweet, sweet jungle. And I have already got sights on my first target. A parrot. Yay. Another parrot. This is perfect.

Now, you wait here for me. I have to go deeper into the jungle. Bamboo. The creature I’m looking for should be nearby. And there it is in all its majesty, the elusive panda in its natural habitat. And now, I will snatch away the baby from its mother’s arms.

Yes. I am kidnapping the baby. I’m so sorry, but now he’s part of the squad and we’re rolling out. Actually, we’re gonna need to abandon the boat. And since you can’t put pandas on leads, I’m gonna have to lure him with bamboo the whole two thousand blocks home.

This is so painfully slow. Oh my gosh. Where did these parrots learn how to mimic creepers? This is not the time for mischief. My panda has actually aged into a snotty nose teenager. Come with me if you want to live in a prospering society full of animals.

Leading Miss Panda back to my camp was a painfully slow process. And to make things even worse, just as I was a mere hundred blocks away from my camp this happened. I can’t really explain it. I haven’t got the words. The panda is dead now. And all that’s left is dirt. No.

This is the worst day of my empire. I was so close to my camp. After traveling thousands of blocks, the panda dies on my doorstep. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. This is supposed to be a utopia for animals. They weren’t supposed to die on the way here.

I think we need to make the path safer. I will not allow this to happen again. I have been a very busy beaver working on this little path through the dark oak forest and I have made it completely secure and very well lit so that we don’t have any more accidents.

And it goes all the way through the forest and out to the Birch forest on the other side. And in loving memory of my beloved dead panda, I hereby declare this The Lost Panda Trail, a safe passage through the deadly Dark Oak Forest.

And I’m debating whether I should replace these torches with lanterns. It’s definitely not the most intelligent use of resources at this time. However, the Panda Trail is very important to me. So I will be diverting all of my iron towards this project. My empire is already corrupt. Tada. It’s almost perfect.

There’s just one thing I want to add to make this place even more magical. I just need to take a quick trip back to the jungle. I have returned with many colorful parrots. They were much more cooperative than the panda,

And I’m gonna place them around the trail to welcome travelers to my empire. And one of these days, they’ll be welcoming a panda, but not today. [HORN SOUND] It’s the emergency horn. FWhips in trouble. My little goblin neighbour needs me. FWhip: Welcome to the goblin cave empire.

Fwhip: I found the end stronghold… erm… it’s open. FWhipe: The portal’s been opened. Sausage: Does anybody know what happened there? I didn’t do it. [CONFUSION NOISES FROM ALL] FWhip: You wanna go investigate with me? See what the heck’s going on in there? Jimmy: No, should we go? Is this safe?

Katherine: Yeah, this could be a trap. Joey: This sounds like a Lizzie trap. I promise, this time it wasn’t me. I’m hiding nothing. There’s absolutely nothing secretive about me whatsoever. Joey: You have a very large head ma’am. FWhip: Okay. Well, It’s in the mines this way. Let’s go. [VARIOUS CHATTER]

Fwhip: Look! The portals open. Sausage: No way. Shubble: Who could’ve done that? FWhip: I didn’t do it. Joel: Let’s go. Joey: You pushed me. Let’s take on the dragon. Joel: Alright. Jimmy: Get your weapons out. Sausage: The dragon… is gone. Shubble: What? Where’s the dragon?

It seems that somebody has been to the end and killed the dragon, but it wasn’t any of us. This world holds more history than I had realized and all this uncertainty was making the fur on the back of my neck stand… I mean hair, the hair on the back of my neck,

Was standing up. Who had opened the portal and killed the dragon. The mystery remains.
