Minecraft: Galaxy Odyssey part 2

None of the materials I own can break the minerals deep in my mine. Maybe what I'm looking for is in the Nether? That's right—I went there.

Beth returns! I show off the things I accomplished while playing solo, and then gift her with storage items, with the secret goal of coaxing her into joining me on my upcoming tasks.

In this episode, I assist Beth in assembling one mean sword and armor set. Next stop: the mysterious mineshaft!

Time to put our tools to the test in the newly-discovered mineshaft! What could possibly go wrong?

The mineshaft is a death trap so we switch gears and go exploring to see candidate sites for our next house. Will we choose the alluring Site H?

As we continue to explore the terrain to find a new home, we discover a village outpost! And a couple mausoleums that aren't quite as at-rest as we would prefer...

Our travels take us north out of the desert, past a goblin colony and to the town of Thimgarite. There's so much to see here—we might stay for a while!

To Zanarkand by Nobuo Uematsu

In a genius plan to become a model citizen of Thimgarite, I pick their wheat and sell it right back to them.

And Gungles.

We're so overburdened with goodies that it's time to bring it all home.

Finally we return home, and begin sorting out the loot from our trip. Then we get a highly unwanted visitor who solicits annihilation unto us...

Fetch the eggnog and start Blitzen your Vixen! I bring everyone over for a tour of the new compound, and host a tiny gift exchange. Daniel tries his best to ruin Christmas.

I've sunk a lot of work into improving the compound! Sarah joins me for a small tour, and we prepare for a tag-team trip to The Nether.

My return trip to The Nether—Sarah's first ever in Minecraft—goes about as well as you'd think.

New and horrible things assault us and impede progress, but I discover a Nether Fortress that will be our next goal.

We take rum shots and I talk about airships and blazes. Sarah still needs to get to her grave so we try to hash out a plan.

Sarah makes me a batch of arrows. I talk about nonsense, like always.

The "B" is for "Beth"! I show her some of the newest additions to the compound, and we set a course to visit her new base up north! To aid us on the trip, I build my first tinkers bow and arrow set.

Our travels take us north past Carenne, and on to Thimgarite. However, we don't exactly receive a warm welcome...

I continue to explore the peninsula north of Beth's house. Among other things, I find a chocobo that I want to tame to make my ride home easier.

I build a new bow and dive back into the Nether. I've got a number of things to get—let's see how many I actually obtain!
