Cross into the eclipse

Kindle a Waygate and step into the Eclipsed Realm, a dimension under a black eclipse sun with the Gracetree burning on the horizon. Rest at Grace Embers, follow their golden motes to three arenas sealed by fog gates, and raise the bosses who outlived their kingdoms at the Ancient Altar. Each boss has its own bar, phases, gear and creature family, and a personal Boss Hunts journal records every hunt. Everything can be tuned in JAuml config files.

3.1 "The Realm Endures" keeps the Realm as it was built, redesigns the Grace Embers and adds two creature families: the Ashbound Constructs and the Corrupted Relics.

• Seven biomes under a permanent golden dusk: the Tarnished Fields, the Gracewood, the Gravefield Barrows, the Ashen Wastes, the Lantern Heights and the Stilled Sea, with the Ossuary Depths below them.
• The Remnants live here. The Realm's creatures spawn across its biomes and never in the overworld.
• The Realm will not change. Survival and Adventure players cannot break or place blocks, use items on the terrain or empty buckets there. Explosions still hurt but leave the terrain whole. Graces, Waygates, fog gates, doors and chests still work, and Creative players are exempt.

1. Craft an Eclipse Shard from an Amethyst Shard, an Ender Pearl and a Gold Ingot.
2. Craft a Waygate: 6 Polished Deepslate around the edge, an Eclipse Shard at the top centre and a Gold Ingot at the bottom centre.
3. Place it. The Waygate raises a stone arch 3 blocks wide and 4 tall, so keep that space clear.
4. Use a second Eclipse Shard on the arch. It kindles for six seconds, then opens onto the eclipse.
5. Walk through. You arrive at an Arrival Shrine with a Waygate home and a Grace Ember.

Grace shrines stand across the Realm's land biomes: a ring of weathered standing stones around a golden flame, with a beam of light that marks them from afar. Resting at a grace:

• heals you to full, puts out fire, clears harmful effects and sets your respawn point there;
• sends a trail of golden motes toward the nearest arena;
• opens the grace menu. It lists the grace you are at, then every other grace you have found, nearest at the top with the distance in meters. Travel to any of them, or Depart the Realm.

Use a named Name Tag on a grace to rename it.

Arena — Where it generates — Boss

Hollow Citadel — Tarnished Fields and Ashen Wastes — Hollow Sovereign, in the throne hall

Gravebound Catacombs — Deep underground, below the land biomes — Gravebound Warden, in the chain chapel

Forgotten Observatory — Lantern Heights — Forgotten Watcher, under the dome

• A fog gate seals each boss room. Players walk through it. Bosses and creatures cannot.
• Each arena's Ancient Altar already holds the default offerings, so you just need to bring the summon item.
• The Hollow Legion guards the Citadel, a Burial Guardian holds the Catacombs' burial vault and a Soul Collector waits in the Observatory's memory vault.

Every boss has its own boss bar, GeckoLib animations, readable windups and phases that change the fight. Each has a spawn egg in the Remnant Bosses creative tab.

The Hollow Sovereign waits to be raised in the throne hall of the Hollow Citadel.

• Phase one: three-hit sword combos, a throne slam and a guard stance. An axe breaks his guard.
• Phase two (66%): his pauldrons tear loose and dive on their own, and spectral royal guards answer his call.
• Phase three (33%): spectral crescents and a soul lunge join his kit.
• The Last Command: at 10% he kneels and rains marked spectral blades across the hall.
• Drops: Sovereign's Ruin, Sovereign's Sigil, the Hollow Crown (the Regalia helm) and Royal Soul Fragments.

The Gravebound Warden keeps the chain chapel deep in the Gravebound Catacombs.

• Wide executioner sweeps, and an execution chop that wedges his blade so you can punish it.
• Chain grabs that drag you in, rows of grave eruptions, and Gravebound Soldiers rising from the floor.
• Phase two (50%): he attacks faster
