Greetings and Salutations Everyone! Thoth here. Hope you all had a good week. Chapters a little smaller this week, my week was chaotic the week I wrote this. The others will be much longer.

Reminder I have a poll on my profile. Please vote to help with future chapters.

Anyways, on with the show!

As Harry and Bellatrix passed through the portal, Harry once more saw the flash of purple, which Harry guessed was the portals activation, and squinted from the sudden change in light they experienced. Where once they were standing in a long dimly lit hall, the pair was now standing in grassy meadow.

Harry had to admit it was a beautiful place. The meadow had luscious grass that seemed to move like subtle waves as the light breeze passed through it. The sky was bright blue, with white cotton clouds lazily drifting. Around them were tall standing oaks, each of which were healthy and green though not much space between them. The darkness looking in almost reminded Harry of the Forbidden Forest. Also scattered sporadically through the meadow was various different flowers.

"Ok Potter. What now?" Bellatrix questioned, interrupting Harry's thoughts.

"We should probably look inside these chests to get an understanding of where we are at with our supplies and materials." Harry mentioned as he started to take off the chest.

Nodding her head in agreement, Bellatrix took the chest off her back and placed it on the ground next to Harry's. Once on the ground both opened the lids and peered at the chest's contents. In Harry's was a letter the said Read First. Alongside it was a series of books that said Biome, Mobs, Materials, and Tools. Also Harry noticed a couple of changes in clothes and food. Just like Death said they would be provided. Bellatrix had in hers the same things as Harry, except the Letter.

"It looks like we have the same stuff. Lets see what this letter has to say," Harry spoke. Harry then grabbed the Read First letter and opened it up.

Welcome to the enchanting world of Minecraft! We're thrilled to have you embark on this epic adventure filled with creativity, exploration, and endless possibilities.

In Minecraft, you are the master of your own destiny. From constructing elaborate structures to delving deep into mysterious caves, the choice is yours. Here are a few tips to get you started:

1. Gather Resources: Begin by punching trees to collect wood. Use wood to craft basic tools and a crafting table. As you explore, gather different resources like stone, iron, and coal.

2. Build a Shelter: Nighttime can be perilous as hostile mobs emerge. Construct a simple shelter to keep yourself safe. Don't forget to craft a bed for a cozy night's sleep!

3. Crafting: The crafting table is your gateway to countless possibilities. Experiment with different combinations of resources to craft tools, weapons, and even decorative items.

4. Exploration: Minecraft is a vast world waiting to be explored. Traverse different biomes, discover villages, and unravel the mysteries hidden beneath the surface.

5. Interact with Mobs: From friendly animals to hostile creatures, the world is teeming with life. Some provide valuable resources, while others may pose a threat. Be prepared!

Remember, Minecraft is about embracing your creativity and forging your own narrative. We hope your time in this blocky universe is filled with joy, excitement, and endless discoveries.

Happy mining and crafting!

Sincerely,

Fate

PS. Your first shelter should be 2 blocks high, 2 blocks long, and 1 block wide. It might be a little tight but you'll thank me later.

Finishing reading the letter, Harry couldn't help but have an annoyed twitch in his eye. This f*cking letter made it sound like they were thrown into some kind of adventure world.

"Bellatrix, if we ever meet Fate. Remind me to kill her." Harry with an annoyed look, as he passed the letter over to Bellatrix for her to read

"I might be helping you with that." Bellatrix sighed out. Clearly feeling a certain way about the letter as well. Harry couldn't blame her, it read like a telemarketers ad letter for a new game. "But seriously? We have to punch wood? We'll break our hands."

"I don't get it either." Harry replied as he took the letter back from Bellatrix, but before putting the letter away, Harry noticed something on the back. "Oh wait there's something written on the back.

Potter, Lestrange-

By now you have probably read Fate's ad campaign on this world. Believe it is not as bad as it sounds. This world is set up like a Lego's building structure. (Potter explain to Lestrange if need be.) You may have noticed by now the world as a block-like appearance to it. That is because it is. The world may be round but upon creation, curves were taken out of it. What this means is when you break something, it will turn into Blocks. You'll understand what I mean when you go punch a tree to get started. The section of tree will break and turn into a Wooden Block. You will further break this down to other materials. To start crafting, you will need to make a Crafting Table. In your pocket, you will find a tapestry with a 2x2 square on the fabric. This will get you started. Everything in this world is the same size, you want something bigger you have to make it bigger. You'll see what I mean when you start mining and building. Also this world is made of different elemental extremes, or Biomes. The weather in them may affect you, it may not, study to get an idea which is which.

Now another thing, I forgot to tell you, some of the souls, of people you know, have, for some reason, mixed with this world. I don't know why, but I feel that part of the reason has to do with the corruption that I sent you to investigate. I tell you this because you may find certain natives bearing a familiar and somewhat familiar appearance to the ones you know. They are not. All souls in this realm are blank slates, the chances are seriously remote.

Oh yes. One last thing, you know how I said, the clearing would be a safe zone for you until you food ran out? Well it's not. Fate thought that would be cheating. I would recommend building a Bed and Shelter as soon as you get the chance. Until you are stronger, the night is your enemy.

That said, have fun and don't do anything stupid.

Death

"Buggering f*cks!" Harry yelled as he finished reading the letter. Why can't his luck have improved?

"Morgana's Tits, Potter. Do you think these two are out to get you? I mean it looks like they are just f*cking with you and not in the fun way." Bellatrix spoke with a dumbfounded look on her face. She knew the boy had shitty luck but damn, the wizarding world didn't know it was this bad. "At least they gave what seems like pretty sound advice for the shelter starting off.

Harry let out a long sigh, "Well we need to get an idea about where we are at."

Looking at the letter again, Harry reached into his pocket and pulled out the tapestry that Death mentioned. It wasn't very big, roughly the size of a piece of parchment. He then went into the chest and pulled out the book at said Biomes and Wood Crafting.

"Here." Harry called out to Bellatrix and handed her the books and parchment. "See if you can figure out where we are at and how to use this thing. I'll go figure out this Block thing and punch a tree."
