Keeper s Hollow

Keeper's Hollow is a small survival world for people who are tired of servers that feel like theme parks. No rank grind, no pay-to-win shop, no thousand-person player list you'll never make sense of.
Deaths leave a grave where you fell, not a wipe of everything you own. Grief protection runs quietly in the background so you can actually leave your base and come back to it exactly how you left it. There's a live map if you get turned around, and an optional texture pack if you want it, vanilla if you don't.
It's a small world. You'll run into the same handful of people building near you more often than strangers, and that's the point. Deaths leave a grave where you fell instead of scattering your things into the void, so losing a fight costs you a walk back, not your whole inventory.
