*'''June 4''' [[Niall]] delivers a message from [[King Cloudius]] to the players. The message is a call to help to players, as the crimson dragon [[Ralnthar, the Soul Eater]] has been spotted en route to [[The Kingdom of the Sky]]. He asks players to assist him in moving is wealth from his [[palace]] to [[Midas’s Well]] in [[Parallel Prime Spawn Town]]. After doing this, [[Cloudius]] asks players to prepare for battle as the arrival of [[Ralnthar]] was imminent. Upon the dragon’s appearance in [[The Kingdom of the Sky]] the [[Siege of the Sky Kingdom]] event occurs, leading to the defeat of the players and the total destruction and occupation of [[The Kingdom of the Sky]]. During the siege, new mobs such as [[Fire Wisps]] and [[Juvenile Crimson Dragons]] were observed, as well as the new item [[Unstable Soul Shard]]. In the aftermath of the siege [[Niall]], [[Jess]], and [[Cloudius]] discuss how to cope with the reckoning of [[The Kingdom of the Sky]]. In order to rebuild, it is concluded that interdimensional technology from [[Red]] must be procured to transport the necessary amount of materials from [[Parallel Prime]] to [[The Sky Dimension]].

*'''June 30''' The [[Monthly Top Voter Reward]] system is established. Included in the reward chests are [[monthly top voter winner map arts]] [[Mr_PresidingDent]] and [[KingDeDeDeVII]] win top voter prizes of June 2021.
*'''July 5''' [[Parallel]] updates to [[Java 1.17]]. [[Parallel Prime]] underwent a border expansion from ±5000 x 5000 blocks to ±8000 x 8000 blocks (from a total of 100,000 to 256,000 square blocks in area, more than double its previous size). [[Parallel Prime Spawn Town]] has undergone some changes, where NPCs from [[The Kingdom of the Sky]] fled to various buildings in the town. [[Rudy]] established a smithy and [[Gino]] established a bakery as [[NPC shops]]. Additionally, three [[portal pads]] from the [[Parallel Prime Spawn Town]] opened, each to a newly discovered [[Biome Town]]: [[Mountain Town]], [[Savannah Town]], and [[Jungle Town]]. These towns were abandoned and decrepit upon entry, so it was the task of the players to rebuild and resettle these towns. All three of these biome towns were outside of the previous world border.

Revision as of 06:21, 22 July 2022

A day-by-day history of major events on Parallel.

2019

  • August (Presumed): Jess recovers from a successful surgical operation (gaining one year to live) on another unknown dimension and begins writing Post-Op Log.

2020

A spherical rift begins to form over Spawn Town
  • March 30: The server opening is teased on YouTube.
  • April 1:
  • April ?: Four purple parallel lines (later identified as linear rifts) are spotted in the sky over Spawn Town.
  • April 9:
    • The four tears in the sky expand into a sphere.
    • Niall first appears, identifying himself as a traveler with an intent to "keep an eye" on the anomaly.
  • April 18: The sphere expands and develops an outer layer. Niall deems this a normal occurrence, though occurring sooner than expected.
  • April 29: The sphere seemingly collapses into a small 5-block area consisting of end portal blocks surrounded by barriers.
  • May 12: A neutral mob, identified by Niall as a wisp, is first observed in the settlement Heiwa Kame; more wisps are later found elsewhere. Niall forbids players from provoking the Wisps by killing them.
  • May 15 Construction begins on the Shopping District in Parallel Prime.
  • May 28: The sphere in the sky once again expands.
  • June 1:
  • June 8: The Volatile Science event occurs. The spherical anomaly continues to expand. A team of players towers toward it and encounters unusual effects, such as levitation and glowing. Wisps are spotted at its base. Niall warns that it is growing unstable.
A purple tear in the night sky
Teaser sent to Diamondback88 from Niall of a Rift forming.
  • June 12: Diamondback88 posts this teaser image sent by Niall in #announcements
  • June 14 (presumed): Red writes Captain’s Log 23 while in space, scanning Sector 47-B.
  • June 18: The Crash Site Dungeon Event occurs. Niall requests the help of players for investigating scattered debris across Quadrant IV of Parallel Prime, which results in players finding a distress beacon and various space ship parts. The search culminated in the discovery of the Crash Site Crater Dungeon, where players found the bridge of a ship originally belonging to Red. The impact crater from the bridge component was deep enough to unearth a large dungeon directly below the ship remnant, which players explored accordingly.
  • July 12: Parallel updates to Java 1.16. Nether Prime is completely regenerated for 1.16 terrain and features.
  • July 26: The End opens. The Commune (now The Commonwealth) opens its borders. Players take The Ender Express from The Commune to a stronghold in Parallel Prime and fight the First Ender Dragon Battle in the End. After defeating The Ender Dragon players explore the End and discover a plethora of new structures scattering the End, including the apparent remains of Eetles containing Eetle Wings.
  • August 16 Jess makes her second appearance to Parallel Prime. She notices a lot of people online and says she has to wait. Although unknown at the time, the thing she was waiting for was to open the spherical rift on Parallel Prime.
  • August 20 Jess returns to Parallel Prime for the third time, saying that in a few days she will have “harnessed the power of the rift.”
A message from Jess saying “I warned you.”
Jess’s message to players when she caused the server to close on August 21, 2020.
A man dressed in royal garb looks through the picture. There are islands in the sky in the background.
