Season 2: June 25, 2022 — June 19th, 2023
Empires SMP is a modified Minecraft server, where the objective is for players to establish their own empires to trade goods and resources with other empires, as well as wage wars. Oli joined in the later part of Season 2. He founded his empire called Olipeligo on a beach. He plays his character from Afterlife SMP after he met Saint Pearl (who was respectively played by PearlescentMoon) in Heaven. His character is sent down to this land long before the other emperors were. He treated it like a normal survival Minecraft world and beat the Ender Dragon, completing the game. He returned to the world partway through the season and began to interact with the other emperors while taking up the role of a traveling bard.
In Season 2, there was a crossover with Hermitcraft and Empires through a rift that was in both of the servers.
