[HOTW] Ruins of Wraeclast (Enlightened hideout)

Hello,

This hideout is my reimagining of what would happen if we rebuilt Pompeii or Babylon from its ruins. I like the idea of caves forming from the lava, trapping some plant life, etc. in awkward places. I also wanted to play with the idea of different environments giving off different types of atmosphere, I also wanted to play around with the idea of making a hideout where the outside and inside interacts hence plant-life meets buildings.

So when anyone enters the hideout, they will be welcomed with torrents of rain.



And on the side, there are glowing wisps that would make people curious as to what it is.



(Too bad the wisps aren't very clear, I stacked like 3 there). And then when the exile moves for shelter; no one likes to be in a wet suit of armour, it is frankly uncomfortable. They can find shelter in a cave opening that was surprisingly a refurbished ruins. One room held the miniscule treasures that the exiles managed to gather (guarded by Leo), another room was turned into a workshop and the last room held the mapping device. The mapping room is sort of a design that I wanted to go on where the plant life have eaten up part of the old site so they just built over it.
(Mapping room updated)






There's a little area as well top side of the layout where Elreon holds his purification ceremony and also where he teaches his new disciples. The ruins can be seen clearly engulfed by the rocks (once lava).



And near Elreon's brainwashing alcove, lies the masters meeting room. They discuss war tactics, etc. and argue over who is the best master and why their craft is more valuable than the crafts of the other masters. Catarina is also around to take shelter from the rain.



Hope you enjoy!

Update #1: Okay so I have re-done my mapping room since I felt that my idea wasn't conveyed in the "rebuilding a room over the ruins" so it hasn't been remade in a steampunk style where the mapping device is powered by fiery devices, pipes and gears. You can also see the older parts of the room since unfortunately I can't block it out with my pipe wall.



There are also a slight update on the pathway towards my masters meeting room where I added archways.

Hey man! Very nice h.o. build! I really like that you have taken the Enlightened Hideout, and completely re-purposed it to bring a completely different theme (this being ancient ruins). I have always loved hideout's like this, good job!

Hi, thanks a lot. My hideout has been updated recently (I'm still looking to update the crafting room but haven't gotten an inspiration yet) so have a look :3.

I don't actually think my theme is all that different from the original tileset since elreon's hideout is pretty much a ruin of an old library that seems to be really high up in the sky or given how dark it is, its probably in a cave or something.
