Salvation

Captures the smallest Faith island containing it into the archive, keyed by signature, then erases the island from the world.

Pattern​

Hover a tile to name it. Reading pattern diagrams explains the symbols.

5 × 5, one layer. Drawn flat on the ground, facing any compass direction.

AAAAA↑AAA←B→AAA↓AAAAA
  • Signature block × 4
    Each arm holds a Tier 1+ block other than the Tier block, or stays empty (air or Tier 0). Read by compass direction, the arms spell the rune’s signature.
  • Air or a Tier 0 block × 4
    Leave these as air, or fill them with Tier 0 blocks such as dirt or stone.
  • Activation block
    The glowing cell is the one to click.
  • Spent
    Cells with a corner mark are used up when the rune wakes.

Keys

  • Bedrock × 16
    stays after use
  • Diamond Block × 1
    spent when the rune wakes

How it works​

Salvation stores a Faith island and erases it from the world. Build it on the island, set its four signature blocks, and right-click the diamond heart. Salvation sealed the island — 1342 blocks, 12 creatures. The island and its creatures are gone, and the archive holds them under the signature. The diamond heart is spent, and the bedrock ring stays where it stood.

Raise the island again with Redemption, built with the same signature.

Good to know​

  • Salvation takes the smallest island that holds the whole rune.
  • Each signature holds one island. A Salvation seal already holds this signature; nothing was changed.
  • It stores up to 60,000 blocks and 2,048 creatures. Players stay behind.
  • A block of diamond on the island stops it, except for the rune's own heart.
  • Protected land on the island stops it too. Every refusal leaves the island untouched.

See Faith islands.

Configuration​

These are the defaults in plugins/Runic/runes/salvation.yml. Every rune file also carries the shared settings described in Rune files.

Salvation has no settings of its own beyond the shared ones.
