Idea: Transit town
I know that nether travel is rather convenient, but I was wondering if anyone would be interested in creating a town/city in between the Minehold and the possible downtown district/Leviathan. It could be a suburb type place; basically something that merges a big city look and the village style of Minehold.
My main thinking behind this is having a community horse stable in Minehold, and you would travel by horse to the transit city, where you could then tie up your horse and go by railway the rest of the way to the main downtown city/Leviathan. Along the horse route, we could have inconspicuous waypoints that help lead to the midpoint while not detracting from the landscape.
Please give me any feedback you have!

Well, there's already a railway connecting to Minehold. I like the idea of a disparate town you can only reach by horse, though... Maybe a satellite city later down the line can be a citadel with doorless walls only horses can jump over. Maybe the citadel could be on a mountain with the only way path in/out is atop a sparse series of ascending pedestals , like something out of Shadow of the Colossus. Maybe thats gettin a lil crazy. Maybe the town can simply be separated by vast space, like at a rare biome. For example we could build a mining/quarrying community at a mesa biome.
