Celestial Whispers
Celestial Whispers is a Magic mod that adds a purple Starspawn tree, a strange book with missing pages and a set of items crafted from the tree's products.
What it does
The mod is built around a story told through a strange book and a mysterious purple tree made of celestial material and flesh. Its pages are missing and reveal instructions one at a time, so the story advances as the player collects what each part asks for. A purple bed has to be slept in to progress, and the chalk and purple candles mark steps along the way.
The Starspawn Tree is grown from a sapling that drops from a wither skull, and its logs yield starspawn scrap. A reactor turns scrap and other items into starspawn-themed creations, while a muncher block lets a player feed items to an observer placed beside it. The server needs Celestial Whispers, while a client may add it. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.21.3, and is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license, so it is not open source.
