Old-School Medieval Survival Lands PvP

Halcyon is a Lands PvP server made to feel like an immersive medieval world. It was founded by a postgraduate medievalist and it aims for that old school survival feeling while staying on the latest vanilla Minecraft version 1.21.11. It plans to update to 1.26.1 as soon as possible.
The server is based in Australia but people play from Europe the Americas and Asia too. It usually has around 10 to 30 players online and peaks around 40 to 60 each day.
The world is handmade and the rules are there to make things harder and slow down progress. It tries to make meta play and heavy automation feel less important. The big wins come from teamwork smart deals research exploring and building huge cities churches groves and forts.
There is no teleportation so travel really matters. Players end up building roads waystations and even hidden underground railways. Crops and saplings are limited to certain biomes so trading becomes necessary and regions start to feel different.
Halcyon also keeps a lot of mystery. There is no big wiki guide beyond a basic handbook at spawn. Most knowledge comes from in game books written by players and from talking to scholars elders and mystics around the realm.
