Steve and Pigphelas made it to the mountains in no time at all. “What do you think will be on the other side Pigphelas?” Steve asked without expecting much of a reply from his pig friend. “I hope it will be something that will give us some answers,” he added on his way up the mountain.
When they finally made it to the top Steve was amazed at what he saw. For as far as Steve could see, all that was visible was golden yellow sand sprinkled with shrubs and many cacti. Knowing that there was nothing for him to learn from the way he had come, Steve made the quick decision to head through the barren land in hope of finding some answers!
They were fast on their way to crossing the dessert, the sun was shining very bright and everything started to heat up fast. Tumble weeds blew pass Steve and Pigphelas, while giant cacti towered over them. “It doesn’t seem to end” murmured Steve to Pigphelas and Pigphelas gave a loud snort in agreement.
Hours went by and Steve was dying of thirst; Pigphelas and he had already drank the last of their water supply and the desert was not ending any time soon. Steve took off his helmet and scanned the flat dessert land. He was about to lose all hope of getting out of the dessert and finding the next clue, until he spotted something in the distance. He did not know if it was real or just a mirage, but what choice did Pigphelas and he have.
They got closer and closer to the faint object in the distance. The closer they got the more it looked like a mountain…wait, a building! “Please let it be a place with water and food!” exclaimed Steve, even Pigphelas was hoping the far off place would have tons of carrots!
Steve became more and more amazed the closer he and Pigphelas advanced towards the amazing structure. As they got closer Steve began to notice that this building was different; it was not the same as others he had ever seen. The first thing that caught his eye was the design of the structure. It was pyramid in shape with two giant rectangle columns in the front. It was not like the small pyramids he had seen previously in the hills.
The orange design on the columns looked like a cross with a helmet on top of it. The middle of the cross was missing though, really confusing Steve. He studied the design thinking in-depth if he knew what they were. After several minutes of thinking and discussing with Pigphelas he decided that he had no idea of what the designs meant or signified.
The last thing that Steve noticed were the various odd sandstone materials the building was made out of. He saw normal sandstone, smooth looking sandstone, and even sandstone with what looked like hieroglyphics on it! Steve wondered many things about this strange temple in the middle of nowhere; “how did it get here?”, “is it safe to enter?”, “is this the work of Herobrine?” Even though he was weary, he knew that he had no choice but to enter the temple. He was exhausted by now, out of water, and Pigphelas needed something to eat.
It was dark inside the temple, but thankfully Steve had a few spare torches he had brought with him.
They both walked slowly into the temple, looking around all he could see was columns and sand. “This place is so strange, I wonder if there’s anything useful in here?” said Steve, he was about to just give up and walk out when suddenly he saw Pigphelas digging at the floor. “What are you doing silly pig?” Steve exclaimed, but when he realized Pigphelas was not just joking around he pulled out his pickaxe and started to dig too.
Slowly but surely he made his way down with his companion thinking, how crazy he was for trusting a pig. After a handful of dug up sandstone they made it to the bottom of the temple and in the middle was a secret compartment with four buried chest! “Hooray! Pigphelas you did it!” Steve was so impressed with Pigphelas genius idea. One by one they opened the chests; a
