When the sun rose up, I felt much calmer. I stepped out into the Hallow, and it made me even calmer. I lied down on the soft, cyan grass, with the sun making me warm. I felt like doing this every morning.

For that time, I chose to lay down in the corruption to see how that felt. I built a box around me out of thin glass to protect myself from Eaters. The grass was dead and sharp, with a thorn coming out of it. It nearly gave me a deep cut. The sun felt very cold, as if it was becoming a black dwarf. I couldn't take it, so I hammered the glass. Somehow, I got the glass block.

That's unrealistic. Smashing it with a hammer once would just shatter it! When I got out, something hit me. I felt like I was corrupted. I turned around, and saw a much stronger eater, called a Corrupter. I thought it was best to flee instead of getting more corrupted.

I grabbed a night soul, and a light soul, and I put them together. It set off a small explosion around me. I had no idea what that did. But, what I did feel was that I felt half corrupted, and half hallowed.

'Hey Coal, did you hear that ex...' Gold began.

He just stood there, standing, in shock. I couldn't understand why Gold was looking at me like that, so I went to a pond to look at my reflection. Then, I saw what put Gold in shock. The left side of me was purple with a dark purple eye, and the right side was cyan with a multicolour colour eye. Just then, I heard Crimson yell.

'Hey! There's someone tied up down here! But I don't know who it is!'

We jumped down the hellshaft, and saw Crimson in the Hallow part. I double jumped to him, while Gold made himself fly downwards and upwards with his Gravitational potions. The person who was tied up gasped at the sight of me. I untied him by biting the rope.

(Silence)

What? I'm a wolf!

'I'm the wizard! I'll teleport to my new house, and tell you about your colours.' The person said.

He disappeared in a cloud of sparks, and Crimson and I grabbed Gold's legs so we could fly upwards with him. I got into the house and travelled up the floors, and saw the wizard take out a book out of nowhere.

'You seem to be the saviour of this world. Anyone who puts a night soul and a light soul will be blessed with powers. Now, you can easily place corruption and hallow. Although, I recommend you place more hallow, otherwise the Dryad, whatever her name is, will become brown, then crunchy, then she'll just become dead leafs.'

Now, let me tell you. The Dryad's is my 2nd favourite person, being beaten by Gold. If she dies to the point she can't come back, Gold will be the only reason for me to live. Well, and the fact that I found out about a world that only Gold and I know about.

'What can I do to save her?' I asked.

'The only way is to fight the hardest boss ever. It's harder than all of the bosses mixed together. It has two forms: one that's purple that removes corruption when defeated, and a rainbow one that removes hallow when killed. Only you can defeat this boss, but someone else helping you always works. And I still can't believe that I tried to bring an angel statue to life, JUST before everyone told me that they do nothing! All of the work, wasted! Well, I brought a slime statue to life, but King Slime spawned and almost killed me!'

I had a big feeling that even though I was blessed with Hallow and Corruption, I had a long way to go before I could stop any corruption. I knew there was a way to slow it down before then, but what was it?

I ran outside to see my sunflowers were uprooted by the corruption. It was NOT a happy sight!

*Oh, why did we have to kill that boss?*

I dug up some more Pearlstone blocks and placed them in front of the dead grass. I looked down my mineshaft, and looked the state on how my world was hallowed and corrupted. Gold came back in after his little adventure in the Hallow.

'Coal! Look what happened to my fur!' I heard him call out.

I ran out, and saw what was wrong. Gold had cyan patches all over his fur, and his eyes were like my Hallow eye.

'Wizard!' I called out.

I heard the wizard sigh and it teleported down to us.

'Yep, just I expected. Is Gold your friend?' He said.

'Well, he's my mate.' I replied, wondering what that had to do with anything.

'Ah ha! I knew it! They said I was crazy, but they will regret it! Oh, sorry for that little outburst, but this is what I wanted! Okay. Any mate you have will become either Hallow or Corruption, depending on what you want the most. That means that you mate will help you defeat the corruption boss, but has a weakness to the Hallow one. Although I doubt that you want to permanently remove hallow, seeing as that will just tear the Dryad apart.'

'The Dryad's name is Emerenta.' I explained.

'I have a small tendency to have trouble with telling the NPC'S apart, so don't get mad if I start calling you Madeline or something.'

I was running out of glass, so I went to my close-by desert, which was right next to some corruption. I came to a halt right at the sand. It wasn't nice, soft sand that used to be there. It was crunchy and purple; all the cacti were purple and dead. It was reviled that corruption could spread over almost anything, other than the Hallow. I looked behind me, and saw the desert on the other side. It wasn't the same either, and I ran towards it.

It wasn't dark and dead like the corrupted one. It was softer than before, and was growing cyan cacti. The sand was white, and shined plenty. And Gold did once tell me that shiny is good. This was the Hallow desert. I ran back to Crimson's house with a sample of the sand from both deserts. I saw Gold running towards me, and I panicked. I tried to slow down, but we collided. We laughed as we got back onto our paws, when the wizard just poofed out in front of us. I realised that I dropped my sand when I ran into Gold. The wizard looked at the sand that managed to suffocate a bunny when I dropped it. He examined the two sand blocks.

'Hmmm, I admit I don't know much about the Hallow, but I know these are from the corruption and hallow desert when they spread over the normal desert. The light and dark sprits were freed, and returned to their rightful places. The light ones escape to the Hallow, and the night ones escaped to the corruption. These all caused these biomes to spread over almost everything. If you're not careful, the corruption will engulf the entire jungle! Good luck, Madeline!'

The wizard explained, confusing my name with the nurse's. 'I'm Coal, remember?'

'Right, right. Just go to the Dryad and talk to her. She'll know lot's of info.'

I jumped up to Emerenta's room, and she appeared weaker and browner than before.

'Emerenta, what do you know about the Hallow, other than what I know?' I asked her.

She doesn't start speaking until Gold reaches her house.

'When the souls were released, light ones created the Hallow as a home. Where it was created, they hid inside creatures that would be in the Hallow. Killing these creatures in there will release them from the creature, and you can grab it. Once grabbed, it will help you make certain tools. These souls always give off light. The Hallow will help you get the best gear in our world. Be careful, because when you have your Depth Meter, and it says 300 feet above and if you're above the Hallow, a huge dragon-like creature might come out quickly without warning.'

I jumped down, and a unicorn came running towards me. It didn't seem happy. The only thing that really highlighted its hostileness was its blood red eyes, more red than the moon on a blood moon on the top of the red sky. I had to admit, when I first saw the Hallow, I thought it was a friendly land.

Well, not as friendly as the normal world, but still friendly. It would be a world just as easy as the normal world. Nope. Everything there is just evil! At least the corruption looks like it wants me dead. At this moment, I couldn't find out what I wanted more. Corruption, or Hallow.

I was so lost in the thought that the unicorn hit me, and did massive damage. I dropped my night's edge, and I crawled towards it. Luckily, Gold jumped down, landed like I would have after a series of front-flips, and striked a WOODEN SWORD through the thing, and soon killed it.

'Wow! How did you kill that?' I asked, amazed.

'It isn't just a basic wooden sword; it has a 'Demonic' Prefix. I just don't know what it means, though.' Gold explained.

He gave me the wooden sword and it had 'Demonic' calved in the handle. Strange particles zoomed in and out of the word, surrounding the sword. Something about the word was causing the sword to upgrade, but what was it? We tilted our heads in confusion.

'Where did you get this?' I asked.

'I don't know what happened, but when I made a wooden sword, this word was calved in it. I saw the particles, but didn't understand them.' He answered.

Gold sneakily grabbed my Night's Edge and ran off to kill things with it, but I stayed in amazement at the sword. The particles seemed green, like the Souls of Sight. I stopped staring, and looked for my Night's Edge. I looked everywhere for it, when it was THEN I realised Gold took it.

'Omegas.' I said, shaking my head with a smile.

I looked up, and saw that the sun was setting. I saw Gold running back, with something white it his mouth. He rushed through Crimson's tower, and tripped over something, causing him to drop a shard. I found it, and picked it up. It has a black dot on it. It reminded me of something, but I didn't know what it was. I felt a small, strange Hallow force coming from it. This must have come from the hallowed desert.

'Gold, where did you get this from?' I asked him.

'This white-ish mummy came out of the desert. I killed it, and this is what it gave me. I've always been afraid to sell things if I get them on the first kill after I sold that bunny hood, so I wouldn't recommend it. It appears that monsters in light deserts sometimes hold these.' Gold explained.

'Okay Coal, give me that!' I hear Cody (guide) call out.

I gave the shard to Cody, and he examined it to tell us what it makes.

'This appears to make something that's a mix of corruption and hallow. This also requires souls and a dark shard.'

Cody said. 'So, does that weapon do extra damage if I wield it?' I asked.

'I'd say so. And I heard that once you defeat The Corruption (that's the bosses' name), the purple fur on you will go away forever. The wizard didn't explain to me if the cyan goes away or not.'

It was nearly night-time, so Gold and I started to head home.

'I really don't feel like going through a bunch of hardmode monsters on the way to bed.' Gold complained.

'Me too.' I agreed.

I honestly didn't wanna fight tons of monsters with larger amounts of damage, defence and health.

'You know what; you can sleep in here with us tonight.' Cody suggested.

We buckled up the doors and nodded.

'I have the perfect room for you two. It has a nice grassy floor.' Crimson said.

Gold and I went up many floors, until we reached the last one. It had windows, a fire place (that was really a furnace) and a green, grassy floor. Gold and I both lied together. We don't normally sleep together. I was about to get some sleep, but Gold kept patting me.

'Why are you patting me?' I asked.

'I'm patting you because you have very silky fur.' Gold answered.

I laughed at his comment, and got sleep. Gold cuddled up to me closer than ever before. Something very awesome happened the next day...

When I woke up, I felt hungry and tired. It was strange, as I got plenty of sleep last night.

'Coal, you stay here. I'll go kill us a pig, and I'll bring you back some pork.' Gold said.

He ran over to our 3D world, while all I could do was lay down until Gold got back. It was very boring. There was nothing to do inside, but plenty to do outside. I heard Crimson fighting some things outside, mainly pixies. Emerenta came up, and looked over me. It felt kinda awkward, and somewhat wrong, but maybe she could find out what was wrong with me.

'There's only one answer to this. But I want to wait until Gold gets back. He'll be shocked, but in the good way.' Emerenta realised.

'Isn't that more like surprised?' I asked.

She gave me I strange look when I asked that.

'Never mind.' I said.

Gold managed to make it up the house to my floor. He was carrying a couple of pork chops, and he had a bone in his mouth.

'Gold, you're just in time to hear the great news!' Emerenta exclaimed.

'Tell me!' Both Gold and I yelled at the same time.

'Well, I'll tell you.
