Although I spend most of my time working on portraits when I'm active on furcadia, I also like to explore.

Zefiroth is the kingdom in the sky, you can get there through the Vinca but only if you have wings. If not, you can have a friend "fly" you up there by summoning. Once you're up there you will be able to walk across the clouds from island to island (if you have wings). These platforms float freely in the sky. Every six hours, the sky changes from bright and cloudy to dark and starry. There are a few secrets about this map that make it unique.

The "secret" caves

They aren't so much of a secret anymore, but Felorin intended them to be. It's actually very close to the entrance, walk across the entrance path until you reach the stone altar, then southeast through the grass where you'll reach the island's end. Walk across the clouds for a bit until you see a lake and waterfall, then a series of caves. Go into the dark hole facing the sky until you teleport into the caves. From there you can reach the top of a waterfall by climbing ladders. And when the dream reloads, you can find three fur rugs and a big yellow dragon that can be picked up and carried/placed throughout the dream.

Magic pillows, Magic flowers.

You'll find a bunch of pillows and flowers in Zefiroth that you can pick up and carry with you or place in other areas if you feel decorative ;)

If you stand/sit/lay down over them without picking them up, and press F3, you can shuffle through different colors and patterns until you find one that suits you.The color of that flower or pillow won't change unless you F3 over it again, or someone else does.

The Secret Island

At some point after exploring awhile, you'll come to the ends of the map, blocked by unwalkable clouds. In a northeast area of Zefiroth, you'll also find an area that seems somewhat walkable but you can't get very far. This is the maze to the secret island, and if you don't know the way chances are you won't be able to get through. It's an invisible maze, which makes it extremely difficult (unless you've been through it many times before). The secret island isn't all that spectacular, there's some neat pillars, a rainbow and...a couch! The couch sometimes causes a bit of drama. Everyone wants to sit on it, because it's like a two person throne of sorts. Also, because the secret island is so hard to get to, this area is valued for its added privacy. Just be warned, if you can get here, that means other people will be able to do the same so if you decide to stay for extended periods of time (like I have) be prepared for visitors. Want to check it out yourself? I composed a map of the maze, using tables to show the path and how many times you need to move and in which directions. The yellow line is where you need to go to get to the end, at the very top. Good luck!
