CHAPTER 08 / THE VOIDED SMP

Check before you enter

Read End status in the Travel menu. Bring your own supplies and return plan; /find does not locate End destinations.

Watch the countdown

The current dragon defeat starts a six-hour countdown with the End still open. Leave before reset: the dimension regenerates. The credited killer has a separate 24-hour lockout after the new cycle is prepared. Trust the live Travel status.

Bring the trophy home

Numbered eggs and dragon titles celebrate eligible kills. End terrain and old coordinates are temporary; your important builds belong elsewhere.
