Dacian Legends

New adventure 0.3.0

Added burial cairns to suitable newly generated Overworld terrain, with a side-chamber chest, central altar and two stair exits. Added Q06: The Sealed Cairn, offered by a Keeper after completing the first five quests. Recover a personal funerary seal and prepare the altar to earn 8 trust. Added Q07: The Cairn Warden. Right-click the prepared altar to summon or join the encounter. Extended the Keeper's Journal with cairn quest instructions and directions to the nearest recorded cairn. Added the cairns configuration setting to enable or disable cairn generation. Cairn Warden Added a 120-health guardian with a boss health bar, warning sounds, attack messages and ground particles. Added a frontal sweep and a delayed ground strike, giving players time to block or dodge. Added two ancestor reinforcement waves, capped at four living encounter adds. These adds provide no normal item loot, experience or ancestor quest-kill credit. Supports up to four players enrolled at the altar. Each player must damage the Warden to qualify for a personal story reward. Added free retries: when no enrolled player remains alive in the loaded arena for ten seconds, the encounter resets and its enemies are removed. Saves encounter identity, boss state, participants and contribution records across server restarts. Peaceful difficulty prevents summoning without consuming quest permission. Rewards and equipment First qualifying victory grants the saved Memory Seal unlock, 12 trust and 6 pending ancestral fragments. Total trust from Q01–Q07 is now 62. Defeating the Warden restores its altar as the Sanctuary of Memory. Right-click it for replacement journals and Memory Seal display items. Losing the display item does not remove the saved unlock. Sneak-right-click the restored altar to begin a rematch; story rewards are awarded only once. Added a Wolf Guard Chestplate commission at the Smith after earning Memory. Cost: 8 iron ingots, 4 leather and 2 wool, plus one free inventory slot. Added the chestplate and Memory Seal display item to the mod's creative tab. Fixes and safeguards Corrected the Warden model's texture layout so its full body renders properly. Added protection against repeated victory rewards and damage from players who have not enrolled in the encounter. Added cleanup for abandoned encounters and unbound Wardens. Updated the journal's post-victory pages and Smith actions for the new commission. Updating and starting Replace the previous Dacia JAR with dacia-echoes-0.3.0-alpha.1.jar and keep only one Dacia version installed. Existing Q05-complete characters can accept the cairn expedition from a Keeper. Cairns require new chunks, structures enabled and suitable terrain. Back up worlds before upgrading. Campaign data now uses schema 2; do not reopen upgraded saves with an older mod version. /locate continues to offer only DacianVillage and CourierWatchpost. Use the journal to discover cairns. Verification and current limits Clean release build passed all 30 unit tests and 41 dedicated-server encounter checks. Verified active-encounter saving and recovery across two separate server runs. Verified natural generation on one DEFAULT Overworld seed, and visually checked the Warden and new journal pages. Multiplayer checks use simulated player identities. Several connected clients, reconnect behavior, human combat balance and a complete Q01–Q07 playthrough still need qualification. The Warden currently reuses the ancestor skin, the chestplate reuses Dacian armour artwork, and the display seal uses a vanilla icon. The chestplate has iron-tier protection; a complete Wolf Guard set and set bonus remain planned.
