Legend speaks of the monolith's origins shrouded in mystery, its construction a feat of ancient prowess lost to time. Some whisper of gods carving its imposing form, while others claim it was the labour of giants. Regardless of its genesis, one thing remains certain: the monolith stands as a silent sentinel, outlasting hermits and their empires that once thrived in its shadow. As civilisations rise and fall, the monolith remains unyielding, a testament to endurance and the passage of ages.

If you feel uncomfortable block the man, it's the internet, nah they are going to act like victims and reveal private life while staying themself anonymous.

It's more of an obelisk than a monolith. But either way, it's a massive improvement... not only build-wise, but also property values. Your neighbors will thank you.

[@pendelluft]

@@pendelluft Mono = Only one. Lithos = stone. Obelisk is just a subtype under monoliths, carved from one stone.

​@@MeltedMask In this case, the obelisk had some extra materials, so it isn't made out of a single stone. So it isn't a monolith.
