The Ancient Nexus

The Ancient Nexus was an experimental Mini-BR map created by hogrider2005, and an pseudosequel to Galaxy Legends and Fortnite: Barcino. The map only had one season (with a pre-season) and was never officialy cancelled, but stopped receiving updates on April 2021.

Plot
"Once upon a time, there was a group of five gods with different abilities which were created in the dawn of time. Every one of them controlled one aspect of our reality, and one couldn't live without the others. One day, they figured out a plan to become even more powerful than what they were at that moment: to share their abilities. So, they stablished a machine in the center of an island which was lost in the world. They called it the Power Nexus.

''Bleizion, god of movement; Fendor, god of the elements; Alora, goddess of life; Raisa, goddess of reality; and Ramsor, god of chaos and the only one without an statue. All of them joined one day to connect their powers, but that didn't work. Their bodies became dust in the exact moment the machine was switched on, and their souls got corrupted, apparently disappearing. The rest of the story will soon be revealed..."''

-The Ancient Nexus trailer narrator

Located in R-C017, The Ancient Nexus tells the story about Sunday Island, a little south-american island which is popularly known for its folklore. There's a legend around the island's main POI, Cryptic Center, which says that, once upon a time, there were five gods who wanted to fuse their powers and became just one entity which could control the whole world. Nevertheless, their plan failed and all of them (except Ramsor, god of chaos, who was able to reincarnate in one of the present island inhabitants) died.

Ramsor tried to bring back his brothers to complete his mission. As of today, there's nothing known about how this story ended.

POI's
The creative map was located at Sunday Island.


 * Crazy City

The only urbanized city at the island. Contains a taco restaurant, a shop, a NOMS market and a flat building.


 * Cryptic Center



The main POI of the island, which was key to the storyline.


 * Worldwide Waters



A port which connects Sunday Island with the rest of the world.


 * Tired Trucks



This POI is a variant from the one seen at Elseworlds.


 * Lovely Lake



This POI is a variant from Crazy Lake, but updated to the new water system. Its main island has the shape of a heart, which would be the opposite to the Lovely Lake landmark from the Galactic Christmas event.


 * Logical Labs



A scientifical research lab owned by a variant from the Goverment, known as Sunday Island's government. They were studying Cryptic Center.

Aim
The Ancient Nexus was originally going to be a complete new map with a brand new storyline and gameplay, compared to the previous hogrider2005's creations. However, after the map slowly stopped being updated, The Ancient Nexus just became an experimental place for the creator to test new features, such as the cars and/or some other devices. Some of this new gimmicks were able to play in public, but some others were just closed to the map developers.

The map also featured Fortnite-external features, such as a Trello.
