The Cartographer's Grief

The Cartographer's Grief

The world remembers your deaths.

Every time you die, a glowing Grief Skull block is placed at your exact death location. Right-click it to read who died there and how. After 7 in-game days (168,000 ticks), it silently upgrades into a taller, brighter Obelisk — a permanent monument to that moment.

Break a Grief Skull to collect Memory Shards, the currency of this mod.

Items

Memory Shard — drops from Grief Skulls and Obelisks. Used in all crafting recipes.

Memory Orb (Memory Shard + Ender Pearl) — right-click once to save your current position. Right-click again anywhere to see the exact coordinates and distance back. Works across dimensions with a warning.

Wanderer's Compass (Compass + 4 Memory Shards) — points toward the nearest uncharted structure: villages, ruins, outposts, shipwrecks, and more. Prints the direction and distance in chat.

Wanderlust HUD

A slim bar at the top of your screen fills as you explore new chunks, up to 500 unique chunks tracked. It pulses with a soft glow when full. Persisted per world and server.

Required on both sides

This mod registers custom blocks and world data, so both client and server need it installed.
