The book in the center must be a Hell-Bound Book.[1] The crafted item is named "Blessing", with "Elegy of Hyacinthus" as a dark gray lore line.

Usage

The Elegy of Hyacinthus is applied to equipment in an anvil, like an enchanted book. Zephyr applies to boots. At level I, sneaking gives Jump Boost VII. Levels II and III, which add Slow Falling and a charged updraft, have no source in survival: no recipe, trade or loot gives them.

History

0.5-alpha Texture added.[2]
1.12.2 Zephyr reworked into three levels; the elegy stores level I, the sneak jump.[3]

Trivia

  • In Greek myth, Hyacinthus was loved by Apollo and by Zephyrus, the west wind, and the hyacinth flower grew from his blood when he died. The recipe uses a hyacinth (the pack's name for the allium) and wind charges.
  • The developer chose the myth of Apollo, Hyacinthus and Zephyrus as a personal reference: hearing it at about age 11 was the first time they had encountered queer men in any story.[4]
