社群:Sketchu Spring
Locations
Sketchu Spring takes places primarily in a massive desert located in the continent known as "West Corobi"[1], the distance obscured is by constant sandstorms.
Map
The contents below show the map in it's entirety with landmarks and all, if you wish to explore the world for yourself expand with caution.
The Spring
-
The titular spring at spawn.
-
The docks right outside The Spring, where users first spawn.
The spawn location, a small village of mynok, a species of small people with oval-shaped heads larger than their body. Several avatars of mynoks can be found in the tallest building, with a variety of different outfits and appearances.
Right of spawn can be found a spawner that spawns flying seed-like vehicles that can be used to fly across the world. The lilac music orb can typically be found underneath the wooden platform.
The Portal

Inputting codes into the keypad successfully will open Special:MyLanguage/portals portals to other VRChat worlds.
Statue Island

Mindaro's Shrine


Found in the dark sandstorms east of spawn. The area consists solely of the shrine, a small set of ruins with several pedestals corresponding to each one of Mindaro's Charms. The charms must be placed atop each pedestal corresponding to the symbol, in which it will begin to glow.
The Mural
"The Mural" is a small ruin that can be found directly south of Mindaro's Shrine. The only thing that can be found here is a mural depicting an unknown character fighting against Alabaster, its hand reaching for the character.
Mushroom Rocks

Imp Cliff

Spike Rocks

Found north between Imp Cliff and The Spring can be found a grassy area with strange spike-like rock formations. Mysteriously, there is a question mark baked into the terrain. The orange music orb can be found here behind one of the spike formations.
Skeleton Ruins

The mural with Alabaster depicts the Mynoks of The Spring along with an unknown tall figure, presumably the one depicted in the mural near Mindaro's Shrine, and the Imps fighting against Alabaster, the scene below it depicts trees and plants being ripped from the ground, with the next scene after that depicting a desert, with Alabaster buried beneath. It could be assumed this implies that Alabaster, either upon death or right before death, turned the land into a desert.(Speculative)
The mural with Mindaro depicts them presenting several charms, directly hinting towards the charms needed for each pedestal at Mindaro's Shrine
Mindaro's Respite

Upon completing the shrine, a portal will open behind the pedestals leading to Mindaro's Respite, completing the shrine will make it appear for all users in the instance.
Features
Flying seeds

They are controlled by moving the controller interactable inside the seed, holding interact will cause the seed to move in the direction the controller is pointed.
These may be difficult to control in desktop as it requires holding the controller which could potentially make it difficult to see where one is going.
Fast travel

Due to how fast travel points work, a desktop user may not hold an interactable object and use the fast travel point at the same time. Making it difficult to take objects found in the world back to spawn and to other areas.
There are a total of 5 fast travel points that can be found across the map.
| Fast Travel Point | Location |
|---|---|
| Statue Island | Unlocked by default |
| Mindaro's Shrine | Found outside of the shrine |
| Mushroom Rocks | Found near the pond |
| Imp Cliff | Found near the arena |
| Skeleton Ruins | Found near the murals |
Music orbs

Across the world, 4 orbs that play a track of music can be found across the world. At least one of these orbs must be brought to Mindaro's Shrine to complete the shrine, as hinted towards by the Skeleton Ruins mural. When all orbs are brought together, they create a full song.
Music orb Locations
| Orbs | Location |
|---|---|
| Lilac orb | Underneath The Spring's docks, usually by the elevator. |
| Green orb | On top of a small rock formation at Statue Island |
| Blue orb | Found in the pond at Mushroom Rocks |
| Orange orb | Near one of the spike formations in Spike Rocks |
Mindaro's Charms

Mindaro's Charms can be found across the desert, appearing as small multi-colored orbs with an object inside of them.
These charms can be taken back to Mindaro's Shrine and placed on the pedestals, where a portal will open to a secret area once all the charms have been collected. This can be difficult to do without a user in VR, as desktop users aren't able to respawn or interact with other interactables such as fast travel points while holding an object.
Charm Locations
| Charm | Location |
|---|---|
| Star | Grassy Spot near Mindaro's Shrine |
| Teardrop | Imp Cliff's highest peak |
| Pebble | Skeleton Ruins behind the ribs |
| Diamond | Small Ruins between Skeleton Ruins and Statue Island |
Mirages

Trivia
- The lilac Music Orb found at the Spring initially spawns on the wooden platform, however often rolls and falls underneath the wooden platform on world load.
- In the thumbnail, the land around the Spring appears to be grassy, this is a hint towards the secret quest in the world that leads to a trigger to turn the desert surrounding the spring into a grassland.
- Mindaro and Alabaster's gender and pronouns are intentionally vague, leaving them up for interpretation.[2]
- The name of the continent the world takes place in is called "West Corobi, " as seen in the secret "w" world unlocked by finding all the orbs in Sketchu Spring.[1]
