Pale Garden and the Creaking

Quick answer

• At night, a Creaking heart in a pale oak tree spawns a creaking.
• The creaking only moves when nobody is looking at it.
• Hitting it doesn't hurt it. Break its heart to kill it.

Pale gardens are spooky grey forests, added in The Garden Awakens drop. They're home to the creaking, a mob that works like nothing else.

Finding the heart

The creaking heart sits inside the trunk of a pale oak tree, between two Pale oak log blocks. It looks like a log with glowing orange eyes at night.

How the creaking works

• It spawns from its heart at night.
• It freezes while you look at it, and moves when you look away.
• Normal hits don't hurt it.

1. Keep the creaking in view as you move.
2. Find the tree with the creaking heart nearby.
3. Break the heart. The creaking crumbles.

Resin

Hitting the creaking at night makes Resin clump items grow on the pale oak logs near its heart. Smelt resin into Resin brick items for orange brick builds.

Eyeblossoms

Pale gardens also grow eyeblossoms, flowers that open at night and close in the day.
