Trivia

• If you want a lot of bookshelves for your Enchantment table go there and find the Library.
• It is the only place where Cobwebs, Stone bricks, Bookshelves, Portal frames, Doors, Iron doors, Pressure plates and Ladders spawn naturally
• The skyhold is similar to the stronghold in Minecraft, however it was placed in the sky because the structure could not elegantly fit underground.
