PROJECT: ATLANTIS
Listen here, mateys, I gots a story te tell.
I heard once, from a strange man at the harbor, a man with a hairlip and three pegged legs, that off in yonder eastern ocean, there be a deeep chasm. And in that there chasm, filled to th' brim with all manner o' evil seabeasties, be an underground aquifer. It be a treacherous swim t'make, fer sure, and you'd best be needin' flippers, and prolly a divin' helmet fer good measure!
But should ye successfully swim th' angry channel t' it's end, ye'll find a MASSIVE underground lake, the likes ye've never seen! An' in th' air pocket jus' above, there be PRIME REAL ESTATE fer th' most MAJESTIC BUILDIN' th't anyone could ever see! HEE HEE!

ANYWAY, there is, in fact, a giant underwater channel and lake leading away from the eastern ocean.
If we work together, we could make the underground lake there an amazing spectacle of architectural achievement.
If you'd like to help on this grand undertaking, we'll need a LOT of supplies added to the commons!:
+ Flippers (found in chests, esp underwater ones)
+ Diving Helmets (dropped from sharks, in the ocean)
+ Breathing Reeds (found in chests, esp underwater ones)
+ Silver Bricks (1 silver ore + 1 stone)
+ Blue & Green Dungeon Bricks (find @ the dungeon), or Obsidian Bricks (look almost the same as blue bricks)
+ Grey Bricks (2 stone blocks)
+ Hanging lamps (find @ the dungeon)
+ Water Candles (find @ the dungeon)
+ Books galore (find @ the dungeon)
+ Silver Chandeliers (4 Silver Bars, 4 Torches, 1 Iron Chain)
+ Glass & Glass Bottles
+ Ebonstone Blocks (pick from the Corruptions)
+ Grass Seeds & Flower Seeds, esp. Water Blossoms (or w/e they're called)
+ Pots, for plants (clay+furnace)
+ Coral (we have a lot, but might need more ~)
Most of all, we need the diving/swimming equipment!
With the breathing reed+diving helm (they stack), you can be underwater for 3 minutes straight.
And, once you find the massive underground lake, try digging a shaft up to the surface, so we will all be able to find it more easily!
The goal here: Make a SUPER AWESOME-LOOKING facsimile of ATLANTIS, entirely underground.
It will be treacherous, and will require everyone's help to pull it off!
