Crowhollow SMP Lore Explained

It all began… with a cake.

A cake that started a war between Hanna and Jboy in CubeCity. Hanna lost the war and was forced to flee through a portal that took her to a new land. She then built a city there with her allies called Crowhollow.

Everything’s fine until one day Watermuffin tells Hanna that he saw Jboy near the spruce forest. Fearing that Jboy knows about Crowhollow, Hanna goes to visit Glow in prison to ask him about it since he was a spy for Jboy. Glow denies everything and Hanna leaves. While she prepares to investigate, she hears an explosion and sees Glow escaping from the prison and Jboy with him. She tries to follow them but they get away, so she begins to search around for them. While doing so she stumbles upon some strange ruins, and sees Percy being attacked by pillagers. She helps Percy and they retreat to Percy’s house. Hanna tells Percy to come with her back to Crowhollow where it’s safer, and Percy reluctantly agrees. They head back to Crowhollow and Hanna prepares to search for Jboy and Glow again. Hanna lets Percy come with her since Percy didn’t want to be alone in a new place. Hanna finds a compass on the ground leading to Jboy’s base and finds him and Glow there. Jboy then challenges her to a duel, and if he wins then he is allowed to stay in Crowhollow. Hanna accepts but loses the duel. Glow kills Jboy, steals his items, and runs off, and Jboy and Hanna agree to team up to get revenge on Glow.

A few days later… Hanna, Jboy, and Percy have returned to Crowhollow. Hanna hears a strange voice calling her, and goes to investigate. She finds that the pavilion has been taken over by a Wither Skull. The Skull demands that she give it gold or else it will destroy Crowhollow. Hanna goes to get gold from her vault and finds that it is missing. She asks Watermuffin about it since he built the vault and he admits that he confiscated it from her because she’s addicted to it, but will give it back if she brings him a Heart of the Sea from a buried treasure chest. Hanna, Jboy, and Percy go to look for the buried treasure and find a seaside village. They go into the inn where they are ambushed by a group of pirates. Hanna tells them that she knows where to find treasure and will let them have everything left in the treasure chest as long as she gets the Heart of the Sea.

The group sets off to look for the treasure. Hanna soon finds it and takes the Heart of the Sea, but then notices gold in the chest. She takes that too and lies to the pirates.

That night, Hanna returns to Crowhollow alone, leaving Percy and Jboy in the pirate village. Glow suddenly appears and tells her that he knows what she did and won’t tell anyone as long as she gives him the Heart of the Sea so that he can safely touch water since he is an enderman. Hanna crafts a fake one and gives it to Glow, who then jumps into the water. Glow gets badly injured and teleports away. Hanna continues home, contemplating what she’s done, and gets her gold back. She makes a deal with the Skull and promises to bring it gold every week.

A week later, Jboy and Percy have still not returned to Crowhollow. Hanna brings more gold to the Skull. When she leaves, she finds a book on the ground and discovers that it is from Glow. She goes to the end of the river as instructed by him and falls into an underground base where Percy and Jboy are being held as hostages. Hanna tries to help them escape, but is cornered by Glow and one of the pirates. Glow tells her that he’ll only let them live if she agrees to help him.

Hanna and Glow go to Oakheart and steal the Heart of the Sea from Watermuffin. They head back to the underground base and Glow asks for one final thing before he releases Percy and Jboy: all of the gold in Hanna’s inventory. Hanna very reluctantly hands over the one gold ingot in her inventory. Glow then breaks his promise and puts Hanna in prison with the others. Glow leaves, and then a prison guard appears. She helps them escape through a secret passage and to a strange, destroyed land. They explore the ruins of a village, then find a small being that they call “Lil’ Glow” amidst the rubble. Percy then announces that he is leaving, and heads back to Crowhollow.

Hanna questions Lil’ Glow about what happened, but he avoids saying anything useful. Hanna and Jboy have an argument and split up. Hanna goes to look for shelter and finds a strange sorcerer named Lumen’s house. Lu gets her to help him save Shroomoo who is stuck at the bottom of a pit full of traps. Lu explains that he created the pit to store “magicky stuff” in. Hanna and Lu navigate the pit and rescue Shroomoo, who was Lu’s husband who got turned into a mooshroom.

Lu invites Hanna to stay for dinner and asks her about herself. She tells him everything that happened to her lately, but purposefully avoids mentioning the Skull. A chicken then falls from the sky, and Lu says that it is a sign that she is hiding something. She finally tells him about the Skull and how much stress she’s been under. Lu suddenly grows serious, and says that she must give him the gold she mined from the nether and the pit back. He says that he can help her but she mustn’t give the Skull anymore gold. Lu explains that the skull isn’t what she thinks it is, that there are actually 3 of them, and that they got  locked away for a reason. He demands that she give him the gold back again, but she refuses and runs away. He throws a trident at her as she leaves, but doesn’t chase her.

Hanna finds Jboy in the jungle. A storm starts and they try to find shelter. Jboy explains that Lil’ Glow teleported away because he felt rain coming.

They find a shack, and inside of it a secret door that leads into a basement that happens to be Glow’s bunker. They find several strange rooms inside of the bunker, including one that contains a book on someone called simply “Master” with some creepy text inside.

Suddenly they see a death message that says PercyVerance fell into lava.

Hanna returns to Crowhollow with JBoy to look for answers and clues on Percy’s death. There appears to be no one there. She sees that the palace has been burned down and JBoy goes to look for Glow so that he can get revenge on him. Hanna burns some gold to the Skull, even though she knows what Lumen told her. Hanna goes to Oakheart to get more gold from her vault and discovers that it all has been replaced with yellow concrete. She tries to think of who could have taken her gold, then she remembers that Watermuffin did it once before and could have taken it again. Hanna searches for Watermuffin and finds him about to start working on windows for the Muffin Tower. Hanna, in her anger, pushes him off the skyscraper. She then burns the tower. Hanna goes to Watermuffin’s vault in Oakheart and finds the rest of her gold, along with a note from Watermuffin saying that he can no longer stay in Crowhollow. Hanna returns to Crowhollow to burn more gold to the Wither Skull. As she passes by a building, she passes by Glow, entering back into Crowhollow, seemingly distressed by a conversation he just had. Glow sees her and she starts to run away, but he promises that he’s not trying to kill her and that he knows that she killed Watermuffin. He says that he’s been sent on a mission by someone to go to the place the compass leads to and offers to let her come with him. Glow and Hanna follow the compass to Melon City. There is a festival going on, and they meet Tobb who is sacrificing gold to the Sacred Melon. Hanna explores a little, and suddenly sees a strange figure wandering around who looks a bit like Percy.
