Queen Lizzie | Ep. 1 | Minecraft Empires 1.17

[UPBEAT INTRO MUSIC] Hey guys, what’s up? LDShadowLady here and welcome to Empires A new Minecraft series with some of my friends where each of us will be building our very own empire First we all gathered at spawn in the friendship circle and each of us chose a biome

And I decided to rule over an ocean biome [AWKWARD CRICKET NOISES] Which may have been a mistake Then suddenly everyone sprinted away to claim their lands and start their empires Now all I have to do is find my ocean biome Well here it is! [GASP]

Wait. This is perfect! I will tame this little guy This parrot will be my companion and my first loyal subject of my ocean empire I feel a bit like a pirate now All I need is a ship But this boat will do

Ahem. Sorry to interrupt but I have an announcement to make I’m very excited to say that I now have my own Youtooz figure! and I love her so much, she’s so precious and she’s available on June 18th at 3pm EST For more information go to ldshadowlady.youtooz.com OK now back to the video

OK Let’s find a nice big area of ocean to settle down [GASP] Dolphins! I love it here already Here it is my vast ocean kingdom…. Which is completely empty and devoid of life… I think I’ve made a terrible mistake choosing this biome… But oh well! This is where I live now

Now I’m just gonna check the area to make sure there are no scary hazards nearby What is that? Is that an axolotl? Oh my gosh it’s so cute! It’s GOLDEN! What do I do with it? Come here! [MINECRAFT DAMAGE SOUNDS] no no no no no Oh no The ocean is a cruel mistress

Where was I? Now I need to get back there OK this time I’m staying in the boat Here it is, the scene of the tragedy and the axolotl has fled the scene Now since I’m obviously not a fish person capable of breathing underwater I should probably situate my empire on some land

So here the sea is quite shallow and there’s even a little 10 block island for me to live on This is perfect Wait, this is actually SO perfect There’s grass here We don’t have to bring our own grass here!

This is the most precious thing in my empire so far and it is in fact the only thing in my empire so far So we should probably get building a little something I think to start out it would be really cute to live on a giant lilypad

So I’m going to deposit my parrot here and go looking for dirt, my first important resource Nobody lives in this Taiga biome so I don’t feel bad stealing from it [MINECRAFT DIGGING SOUNDS] [MINECRAFT LLAMA GRUNTING] [LIZZIE SCREAMS] Mate, you can’t just do that to people! He’s got dirt but I don’t have coin

OK well thanks for nothing Wait, I could get a lead from this guy Yeah I think I’ll try and do that [VILLAGER PAIN NOISES] [LLAMAS SPITTING] [LIZZIE YELLING] Oh no! I just want the lead Just wanted the lead I’m so sorry… oh no OK [GASP]

I got his head Oh my god I got his head OH GOSH! That was really horrifc I’m so sorry Wait a second Am I the bad guy? Ah home sweet home You won’t believe the day I’ve had Mr Parrot I murdered someone BUT I got some leads!

Now let’s expand this empire Because I want to rule more than 10 blocks Ta-daa! Ok I know it looks really ugly right now But just you wait for this grass to grow! It’s gonna look really cute [MINECRAFT DROWNED GURGLES] [LIZZIE YELLS] What was that? It’s the Parrot The Parrot is doing that

[PARROT MIMICS DROWNED GURGLE] That’s gross, don’t scare me like that … or I’ll have to kill my first loyal subject Now let’s make this place cute [PARROT MIMICS DROWNED GURGLE] Final Warning. The first thing I’m gonna collect is a little bit of clay from Joel’s Mesa biome

I’d like to take a specimen from somewhere that he won’t notice because I’m not trying to make any enemies in episode one I think this will go undetected [MINECRAFT PICKAXE BREAKS] And now I want some cacti but… Oh there’s some Can I harvest this? Yes yes I can

Now I want to go home before I die This biome is making me thirsty Get me back in the ocean where I belong Now where do I live again? So I want to turn this terracotta green And now to really make this lilypad pop I’m gonna add a border

Ta-daa! Now I think we also need some grass here so let’s bonemeal and get rid of the tall boys OK Final finishing touch, a campfire Right in the middle Now that is what I call a survival island This has everything I need to survive

But it would be nice to have more resources so I’m going to go looking for some of the basics And now we must visit land for that is where we shall find all the resources In this ravine perhaps Now to make this easier for myself I will harness the power of the sea

This is kinda something only the Queen of the Ocean could do There! It’s kind of like a magic power I have I’m just so in tune with nature Is this iron? Eww what I’m not leaving this cave until I have a full set of iron armour

I need some protection for my fragile little body [LIZZIE YELLS] What on earth is going on in there? Somebody explain [MINECRAFT ZOMBIES DYING] Oh no.. I keep beheading things I’m so sorry He looks so cool though [SPIDER PAIN NOISES] [LIZZIE STRAINED NOISES] I need armour Ah that’s much better

Now that I don’t feel as weak and pathetic anymore It’s time to do some work on my island to make it cuter I want to find some normal-sized lily pads to decorate around here so I just need to find a swamp Ah goodie A swamp

Oh, where are all the lily pads? Am I too late? Did somebody else take all the lily pads? Thank goodness I’m taking them all Ah, an entire stack of lily pads and they’re all mine And now I just need to place some of these around

Cute! This is gonna look so adorable when we add more islands but first I’m curious to see what this looks like on a map So I just need to make a map now but I haven’t yet found any Redstone

So I’m just gonna shimmy on down into this cave again but this time we’re going deeper What is that? Cobbled Deepslate? What on earth is Cobbled Deepslate? I just came down here for some Redstone I wasn’t expecting to make any scientific discoveries

[GASP] Oh my gosh I was not expecting to find diamonds today.. but I’ll take them [GASP] Yes Redstone! and it is beautiful That’s actually so cute I’ll take it all [MINECRAFT PICKAXE BREAKS] Oh, OK I guess I won’t take it all

Thank you very much cave I have all I need and I shall not be greedy today because Karma will push me in the lava Ta-daa! OK moment of truth [MAP SCRIBBLES] Oh. God. NO! I can’t believe it I was … on TV!

This is fine… Oh who am I kidding? This is not fine I need to fix this There! A detailed map of my…. …slightly underwhelming empire I think we need to take things up a notch So I collected more dirt and I built myself another lily pad island

But this lily pad is for my farm So I’m planting all the seeds I have and… this is it So to speed things up I thought we could somehow get a bee over here to join my empire So first I need to find a bee

Oh I see a bee! Where’d he go? Where’d he go? You there! Take me to your leader [GASP] I found the hive OK, let’s smoke this out [BEEHIVE POPS] [LIZZIE GASPS] [DRAMATIC MUSIC STARTS] OH NO! Oh my gosh what happened? Did I not do it right? OH NO THEY’RE ANGRY!

KILLER BEES! Uh oh. [LIZZIE YELLS] Oh my gosh, NO! I didn’t know that they could swim… oh I thought I did it right Did I not? Oh my gosh, that’s what went wrong Ah ha! This time I’ll do it right Like this…

And now I steal the bees, come on boys Careful bees They look like tiny balloons Oh they look terrified, I’m so sorry Almost there OK here you go and I’ll plant some flowers around for them too ’cause I know that makes them happy and soon this place will be full of crops

There. Isn’t that just glorious? Now the final thing I did was clear out my starter island leaving only a campfire on the surface and I moved all my strategic operations underground to keep them a secret from all the other empires

I don’t want them to know how advanced I am yet Not to brag or anything but check out this composter and I thought it would be really cute if we made it look like the parrot is sitting on a log at the campfire

Now please believe me when I tell you what happened next was a complete accident [PARROT PAIN NOISES] Surely this is a bad omen for my empire I’m concerned that I might have angered the gods of the sea already and it’s only episode one

So to appease the gods I’m gonna build another tiny lily pad island to make a small graveyard [MINECRAFT DIRT SOUNDS] So now I just need to put down a little tombstone for my dear deceased parrot I even saved his little head to put on top

And his tombstone reads…. Parrot Loyal Subject Number One Episode one to episode one

So that’s where I’m gonna end this episode of Empires Next time I’m gonna go wild adding lots more lily pad islands [So if you have any ideas for what to build on the islands please let me know in the comments Don’t forget to leave a like and I will see you next time
