Reading everyone's comments sounds great and Gem's intro to her Kingdom inspired a little story from me maybe as background. I post it here, whether it's used or not, just some of my thoughts: The Kingdom of Dusk was once a beautiful place that started underground in a vast open cave, with beautiful hanging gardens, rich moss and glow berries & lichen to light the area. Dusk prospered and excelled in technological redstone wonders. But when they tried to build a new experimental portal system in the middle of the city to the End using new building materials, it opened up to a new unexpected dimension instead. The Warden came through and everything became dark and gloomy. The plants died and the once mossy surface became skulk. Light faded and thus started the eternal night for what now became The Deep Dark City. Everyone had to flee to the surface to escape the Warden as they could not kill nor defeat it. The people of Dusk were now scattered and living across the above lands. One of these people, a young baby girl who lost her family and was rescued and taken to safety, and now grown, returns to the area to reclaim her destiny as she struggles to remember her family and who she was. Thus a new Kingdom was formed up above on the surface beneath the sun and a new age was begun as Dawn, the Kingdom of Sun & Light, was established by Princess Gem of the former King of Dusk, working to bring a new twilight age and hope back to the former Kingdom and all the surrounding lands.
i think the ancient city is going to be like gem’s dark side like in a way she commands both the light and the dark but maybe struggles controlling the darker side but i could be totally off base lol
The Dawn Empire houses an evil organization named Dusk. After all the brighter the light the darker the shadow. The Dusk organization does all the dirty work to keep the Dawn empire clean and pretty.
My brain in the first episode: I can't see Gem being much of a princess maybe Merida from Brave This episode: Gem is using Brave as her story like the will O' the wisps and everything
Gemini I got tragic news to share with you about the Sky Empires! You see the Sky God Joel is keeping Bees trap in a cave with no sunlight and not all lot of flowers, it also extremely cramped in the cave. The bees are basecly being abuse by the Sky God, please save the bees! P.S if you need help with this rescue mission, may I suggest asking the Animal kingdom Queen? A.k.a Lizzy?
lol, he gonna get burned!! honestly, anything with fire aspect would work with gem... maybe a fire bow called the sun glare? either way, Joel is screwed.
Cool idea: as you build things throughout the series, you use different themes based off of the different times of day the sun experiences For example, a sunrise district with the light oranges and reds and yellows that you have been using, a noon, or midday district, where it has more yellows and some blues for the sky, and a sunset district with darker reds and purples and oranges
i know nobody asked, but i love that gem is doing a lighthouse. my grandpa passed away in september and loved lighthouses so much. this makes me think of him. thank you
I love the editing on this video, the intro and outro had very cinematic vibes. The lighthouse is a nice addition that just looks gorgeous and makes a ton of sense based on your location. You could build a shipyard over on the other side of the island which would complement your future docks. Loving the way Dawn is turning out and the Sun Princess character.
The scene where Gem follows the willow wisps brought back Brave memories when Merida follows the wisps as a child!! Love the theme and loving the medieval aesthetic! 🧡💛
Gem's videos are always so interesting and entertaining that just really take your attention. I have an essay due in roughly 6-7 hours. Have i started? no.. am I gonna still watch the video? yes.
*Me being very excited for the lore* *Sees the soul fire* Me: the lore has started! Gem: this is my lore Me: called it Also Hi Princess Gem! Love the series!
I love how gem's uploading her videos so fast without making us wait that much from both empires and hermitcraft. But no pressure gem. We love you so much.
Your empire is so cool! I also love the name for the Empire, "Dawn". Also, my brother needs to see this series and this channel in general, he loves bees (and so do I)! I tried starting SMPs a ton of times, but it always ends in anarchy and destruction the day after starting.
Idea: Kingdom twin suns Reason: all the cool dandelions and sunny themes = sun And reason 2: Twins because Gemini the “Twins” Edit: Just realized tatooine from Star Wars but uhm
Gem on hermitcraft: MOON BIG MOON SCARY Gem on empires: The sun is my god and my guardian angel i love them with all my heart for i am their beloved child
I love the vibe of “sunny, regal empire on top of a dark and spooky ancient city” Gives everything the dark past vibe. And the name Dawn even gives the connotation that it’s light coming after something darker. Very cool.
When Gem said wisps I immediately thought of the movie Brave and I think that her character is going to be based off of the princess in that movie named Merida PS : if you haven’t watched that movie you definitely should

Why do i think that fwhip and gem should be enemies? Or is it just me? You know what ill tell you why: Gem is a princess of the sun and she loves the sun very very much. But fwhip doesnt see sun light. And fwhip lives in the darkness and gems enemy is darkness (and the moon) so i think fwhip and gem should be enemies. But what do u you think?
Keep up your good work gem! Your empire is so cute and I love your building style! Also here is a empire name suggestion, you should call it “Sunny grove” or “sunts”
Yay! I needed an Empires episode today, and The Dawn's Princess was most gracious in delivery.🙌🏽😁 1:04 It would've been hilarious if she just slid in a clip of them both screaming in panic from last time. 😂😂
Wow! Absolutely amazing love your empire! Wait, something just dawned on me. The Dawn Empire works SO well with what you’ve been doing! Love your builds, love your vids!
I freaking LOVE your building style!! I have name suggestions for your empire! Sunfall Hills, Sunrise Bay, SunStar Feilds, SunFall/Sunrise Grotto/Grove. I hope you like the names and consider using one of them!
Is anyone else thinking Gem is similar to Meridia from Brave? I mean the wisps, the red hair, the bow she got from fishing. Just something I noticed, I love it. Brave is a movie I really think people hate a bit too much, love seeing the inspiration
I think Luminem is a nice name idea! Like luminus and gem put together. No offence I just am not a fan of the basic name “Dawn”. Also gem I love this new you and these builds are insane
Gem: Gotta Sleep!!! Bdubs: So proud! Oh, my child, u have grown up so fast! Gem, I think you're turning into Bdubs for Empires Hey Gem! With the logs underwater on your bridge, why don't you replace the ones under the water for dark oak? That way, the look like they have been dampened by the water.
tbh the deep dark RIGHT UNDER her kingdom kinda reminds me of the upside down is stranger things and since pix is kinda the DM for this season maybe a project could be like building your empire in the deep dark (obvi not THIS EARLY) i just think it is a cool idea
Gem! I have a build idea! You can build a building/structure or maybe your castle aligned with the sun at a certain time and place of the sun. Example: A statue holding its hand up to hold the sun at a certain point! 🥰 I think it would look amazing! Btw I love your vids ❤🧡💛🧡❤
Gem you’ve taught me so much about building!! One lesson I took away today is it’s okay to be sparing with the lanterns. You only used one in a library where I would’ve put a ton and the simplicity of the interior is honestly so much cleaner and nicer. Thank you for teaching me and the rest of your viewers/subscribers Gem!!! You’re a wonderful creator and builder ☺️
Hi gem I’m a RU-vidr and I love your content so so so much! You inspire me to create. When I first started watching you I was a Terri all builder but now I’m even better! I’m really grateful for my friend Bella who is the biggest fan because without her I wouldn’t have found out about you. Just now I started a world that is mainly inspired by you! Thank you so much
you’re from newfoundland?! i love there. there’s a musical i love called “Come From Away”. it’s about 9/11 up in canada and how they had to adapt to have these planes come through their airport and all these people, from all over. it’s really amazing.
Empires is one of my favorite Minecraft series because the environmental storytelling is so cool! It’s so much fun and utterly fascinating to see all the little details people put into their builds, like Gem deciding which way the wind blows. I’m not much of a builder, but it really inspires me to add details like that to the other kinds of art/world building I do!
Ahaha the fact theres a dark kingdom underneath the light (basically) kingdom is quite funny, like the moon and sun, light dark, yin and yang eh just thought it was funny how bout you? Edit: or a deceased old sun Empire like that being why the area called to her and the banner. Or just a deceased empire that will be the enemy of this empire.
