Book 1: Doom Mountain
Day 1
Have you ever heard of a Strider before? Have you seen, met, or even talked to a Strider in your life? No? Well, I’ve got fantastic news for you! My name is Morgan, and I am a Strider. I decided to write this to educate others about the existence of Striders, our culture, our behavior and other interesting details about our lives.
First of all, I have realized that not many creatures know much about the Striders. Granted, we are kind of slow when we are not walking on lava, but it doesn’t mean that other creatures should remain ignorant about our existence.
The very few friends that we make around here are those pesky Magma Cubes, who come and hop around every once in a while. There are also the local Hoglins, who live in a cave nearby, but we don’t talk to them often because those poor things can’t walk on lava like the rest of us.
Ah! You must be wondering, who are ‘us’ that I keep talking about? Yes, yes. How rude of me! I totally forgot to tell you more about me and my friends. I have already introduced myself, so it’s time to talk about the Striders who live with me.
Other than me there is Zack, Nora and Tom. Together, the four of us are also known as the Striders of Heat Lake
!
I suppose not many creatures know about us here, honestly. It’s also one of the reasons why I decided to start writing about my life and the lives of my friends in Heat Lake. Speaking of which, Heat Lake is the lava lake where we live, in case that wasn’t clear enough from the beginning. Yes, I know! What a creative name, right?
We all came up with the name together. Tom wanted to call it Lake of Fury
, but I thought it sounded so lame. In the end, Heat Lake was the preferred option for most of our group or at least three members of it. It has become the official name of our home and that’s what we call it, except for Tom. He insists on Lake of Fury
to this day, and it has been over a year since we voted on the name. Just let it go already, Tom!
Anyway, back to the topic of Striders. Sorry about that. I digress a lot. It’s one of my problems, and my friends tell me I talk too much. Sometimes I’m talking about something and then I’ll get distracted midway and start discussing another subject without completing my previous sentence, and then… oops, I did it again.
Focus, Morgan. Focus. Ahem. Striders are known for being one of the very few creatures in the Nether which can walk on lava. Actually, we are the only creatures who can do so. The Magma Cubes can swim in lava, but that’s a totally different story! They cannot brag about being able to freely walk above it, like we do.
How can Striders walk on lava, you might be asking yourself? Well… Good question, once again. I guess I should have done my research before starting this diary… Ah, I guess it won’t be an issue. Now, Striders don’t get burned by lava and they actually thrive when near a lava source.
Once you take a Strider out of lava, they get cold, weak, and slow, believe it or not. Once we leave lava, we start shivering like crazy. Even the Nether weather isn’t hot enough for us Striders. We must be near lava at all times.
I know this may sound strange for the land creatures like you, who are reading this book. You are all so used to walking everywhere that you can’t even fathom the idea of living your life over a lava lake.
To us however, living over lava is a delight. The warm fuzzy feeling of walking on lava is unlike anything else in this world. I know it, because I can also walk on land and let me tell you, buddy – walking on lava is so much better!
By the way, we are known for taking long steps on lava, or in other words, striding; that’s how we got our name! Who gave us this name? No idea. Maybe I’ll meet that creature one day, who knows? One can dream.
Anyway, I have talked way too much about myself. I suppose this book will be boring to read unless something interesting happens. Maybe if I start telling you more about my daily life, then it will get better.
Yes, that’s exactly what I will do. From now on, I shall write down everything that happens in my life. I’ll let you know what happens in Heat Lake, about my life with the other three Striders, and how we get around here.
Perhaps other creatures will be more interested and eager to learn about the Striders, and we might make some new friends. I have always wanted to make new friends. Not that I don’t like the ones I have here, but I would be lying if I said that I wasn’t bored of looking at the same faces over and over again.
It has been what now? Six years? Or was it seven? Ah, I can’t keep track of time. I have been living in Heat Lake for so long, always with Zack, Tom and Nora by my side that I don’t even know what year it is. All I know is that we have never left this place, and we don’t know what lies beyond our beloved lake.
Maybe it’s better that way. Maybe it’s safer. Who knows what could be waiting for us outside of this lake? I know one thing for sure; I won’t leave this lake unless I find another hot spot to lie on.
Day 2
Another day, another adventure, because living over a hot lava lake is an adventure on its own, as I like to say. Where was I yesterday before I signed off from my diary and went away to rest? Oh, yes! I was talking – or rather, writing – about the life of a Strider. There isn’t much to tell about that, you know? First things first, we Striders spawn in this world of Minecraft for a simple reason – we are here to tame the lava. We are fierce, we are bold, and most importantly, we do not fear the scorching lava under our feet!
My friends tell me that I am a bit silly when I speak like that, but it’s the truth. Striders have but one main purpose in life, which is to tame lava. I keep telling them that, but they say I am exaggerating. They tell me I should stop dreaming so much but let me tell you, my diary, they will learn about the truth one day.
One of these days they will wake up to the realization that Striders are the bravest creatures to ever set foot in the Nether! No wonder we can step on lava and walk freely over this hot block. I have seen other creatures try and get scorched up, de-spawning in the process, except for the Magma Cubes, of course. Those don’t count. They catch on fire, but they don’t take any damage.
Anyway, as I was saying, my friends aren’t bad creatures, they just don’t believe enough in themselves. I keep telling them to be more courageous, but they say we are not like those Piglin Brutes, and we should not be engaging in extreme activities out there. Maybe one day we will, my friend but for now it’s better to be ready at all times.
Right now, my friends are out there probably talking about the amount of food we have in stock. They might
