Arbor Waters

History
Arbor Waters was the first main town that markaus77 created. The town was eventually abandoned and unclaimed, but it still remained east of Athesne's Wreck. It is currently under the leadership of SpaghettiClown. Previously under the nation of Caony, it has since 53 become the capital of its own nation, Iethela.

The Panda Angle of Arbor Waters
In the year 46 A.C. (March 24th, 2021 in EST) the great Panda Angle appeared to RGTThiefs in their home colony of Arbor Waters. Below are the transcripts of the discussion in the server Discord of that day with the Anglear Pinnacle, MrShelbyBlue, and markaus77 of Sylva.

RGTThiefs: i just needed to leave and go back RGTThiefs: dude there is an angel right above me markaus77: ? markaus77: you need to post a photo MrShelbyBlue: yeah you have to be outside of the town to claim the plot you're in lol markaus77: ha!

RGTThiefs: it is respected nowhere markaus77: they are nowhere to be found RGTThiefs: they are hidden deep underground RGTThiefs: yes RGTThiefs: some say they are in infested silver fish blocks

The Diving Board controversy
In the year of 59 A.C., EpicSnailFox2 (a resident of the town) and mjsully (the deputy mayor of Athesne's Wreck) both tragically fell to their deaths after jumping from the nearby diving board and synchronically crashing into LazyGrape's (another resident of the town) boat. The incident brought up various questions about the validity of safety regulations. In the end, it was not decided who should be held responsible for the physical and psychological damage resulted from the accident.

Geography
The town is located in the swamp biome, in a short distance from Athesne's Wreck in the west and Habeas Bay in the south-east. Arbor Waters connects to the Arbor Waters bridge, which leads to the now abandoned North Shore.

Economy
Although Arbor Waters contains fewer chest shops than it used to, there are still a few of them operated by the current residents (including, but not limited to: Arcalyte's Pumpkin Pie stand, EpicSnailFox2's Potion Shop and a miscellaneous shop at the LazyMail headquarters). The town also houses a number of villagers underground.

Transportation
Arbor Waters is connected to the Nether (and, by extension, to the Nether Highway) with two Nether Portals - one located at the top of the tower created by aikidored, near the Arbor Waters bridge, and the second under the main house. Apart from the Nether Highway, the residents of Arbor Waters tend to use boats for transportation, especially when travelling to Athesne's Wreck or farther the nearby swamp area.
