Chapter III: The Maker & The End

Chapter III: The Maker & The End

During a visit to Desert’s Edge, The Maker decides to check out the Desert Temple, located at the far edge of the village (technically outside its border). The villagers warn him that the Temple is absolutely forbidden, even to someone with his now-legendary power. The Maker ignores their words and walks to the Temple, armed with his signature Enchanted Diamond Sword. He discovers a hidden passage in the back of the Temple leading behind the temple. There, he finds a very dark Portal unlike any he has ever seen before. He enters it and finds himself in a third dimension—this one completely separate from Faradesia and The Nether—known as The End. There, a single, massive island floats in an empty space. On this island, hundreds and hundreds of dangerous, intelligent Endermen live. And a mighty dragon, the Ender Dragon. The Ender Dragon flies above the island, healed of all wounds by several powerful Ender Crystals. The Maker engages the Ender Dragon in combat, creating for himself an Enchanted Bow. He flies and easily dispatches the Ender Crystals, and then begins attacking the Ender Dragon directly. Eventually, the Ender Dragon explodes in a ball of light, leaving behind another End Portal that takes The Maker back to Faradesia.

Chapter II: Shortcut World

Chapter II: Shortcut World

The Maker begins building several more Portals in the Nether and explores different areas of Faradesia, including the Nullard Mountains, the Nullard Depths, the village of Desert’s Edge, Distant Forest, the Subterranean Rivers cavern, and Mistal Swamp. At the same time, he studies The Nether, learning about its connection to Faradesia. He also discovers three more Nether Portal ruins: in Underwater Cavern, the peak of Sky Mountain (part of the Nullard Mountains range), and on a partially-floating isle in The Nether. He begins keeping a log of coordinates for all of the Portals he has built, all of the Portal ruins he finds, and villages he comes across.

In Desert’s Edge, The Maker has a run-in with a couple of villagers and decides to demonstrate his power by constructing a Redstone circuit that detonates TNT under said villagers’ house. Both villagers drown after falling into the small lake below. In Distant Forest, he digs out a large cavern in a hill near his Nether Portal and makes it into a beautiful underground retreat with walls of diamond, a ceiling of lapis lazuli, and a floor of gold. He also digs out a second room, which he makes his bedroom, modeled in the style of his hut back in Maker’s Grove.

ARC 1: OTHER WORLDS

Chapter I: The Maker & The Nether

The Maker builds a Nether Portal beside The Maker’s Hut and discovers a semi-parallel dimension called The Nether. He builds another Portal a few yards away in The Nether, and finds himself in an undersea cavern (which he dubs Unknown Cavern) about half-a-mile away from Maker’s Grove. He returns to The Nether and discovers the ruin of a previously-built Nether Portal near his portal to Unknown Cavern.
