Do you like those beautiful Northern Lights? Well FEAR NOT!
This mod adds Aurora Borealis items! When a player joins, a timer starts. After 15 minutes, a message will appear saying that an Aurora Borealis has formed. Quickly! Find it! When you get to the location, you'll see an item. That item is the "Aurora Borealis Shard"! You can smelt it to get a "Purified Aurora Borealis Shard". You need to collect 9 of these purified shards to get a Block of Aurora Borealis. This is a powerful light block that can be used to light up any area.
Why would you choose this mod?
Well, if you're looking for pretty visuals, then you're in the wrong place, but if you want some functionality, this mod is just right for you!
Have a good game!
