Appearance
The stronghold is a massive collection of ruins made up of stone bricks and wood located in a lush cave. There are several pathways and brides over bottomless pits. The stone is covered with ripped blue carpets and silverfish can be seen falling from the roof. In the middle of it all, the End Portal sits levitated over a pit of lava. Unlike the original game, though, it has two sets of stairways leading up to it. When the hero clicks on the portal it will make a banging sound, and if it is not activated, a menu will appear and say the following message:

"Activate The End Portal! Return to camp and search the Overworld for Eyes of Ender and bring them back here to activate the End portal and travel to the End."

- End Portal

There are also paths leading away from the portal that are blocked off by Eye of Ender doors. When clicked on, the following message appears:

"This Dungeon Is Sealed! Return to camp and search the Overworld for Eyes of Ender and return them to the End portal to explore the area beyond."
