You know you've reached a new low when you're lorebuilding a single-player world.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

To be fair having seen side by side comparisons I would say that their recreation was pretty ugly. I've seen much better looking recreations of other RL places.

I've played a little PC Minecraft and it's way harder. However, the latest updates have made the PE a more interesting game, to be sure. I mean, what were we supposed to do without buckets?

I'm building a "hidden" sewer system, with each of my major builds/areas having its own water temple entrance thing. Problem is making pipes running tens and tens of thousands of blocks.

Recently (nearly) finished my greatest build yet. A fortress monastery/citadel set on top of a mountain with a hidden/overhung valley behind it for the monks.

To the tune of Radioactive:

I'm waking up. A beach of dust.
I need to move, it's not a choice, but I must.
Running through the birchwood trees.

And suddenly, how can it be?
A force appears right before my eyes.
He swings his sword, the end is nigh.
Whao-oh.

{Chorus}
I'm waking up.
I feel it in my veins,
going back for my remains.
Welcome to the new stage, to the new stage.
Welcome to the new stage, to the new stage.
Whao-oh-oh whao-oh

Whao-oh-oh whao-oh
Whao-oh-oh whao-oh
I'm Redstone Active, I'm Redstone Active.

I raise my pick, put on my clothes.
It's a revolution, I suppose.
I'll ping them red, the fight is on
Whao-oh.
Here I come, back from gone,
But once again, thrown back to spawn.
This is it, I've had enough.

{Chorus}

All systems up, the hope hasn't gone
Deep in my heart, revenge dwells inside.
I'm waking up.
I feel it in my bones,
Enough to make my systems glow.
Welcome to the new stage, to the new stage.
Welcome to the new stage, to the new stage.
Whao-oh-oh whao-oh
Whao-oh-oh whao-oh
I'm Redstone Active, I'm Redstone Active.
Whao-oh-oh whao-oh
Whao-oh-oh whao-oh
I'm Redstone Active, I'm Redstone Active.
