The year is 1971. The recently elected Lieutenant Governor of Mississippi has been found with a knife in his throat. Precisely how this came to be the case is a story for another day.
The important thing is that Eric Underwood wakes up, after what feels like just a couple seconds later, in -
The area also has some other interesting things! There are fish swimming in a pond, which drop fish meat and a strange white substance when killed. There are also strange plants that hold your weight for about a second, before dropping you.
Useful for making a trap, perhaps.
He'll keep mining until he runs out of food, and then head back up for some crafting.
In the process, he will discover that he can only stack at most 64 pieces of cobblestone in one slot in his inventory.
And look, his little farm has grown some trees! Right next to each other!
There are a lot of new things for him to craft! They range from boring things, like stone with moss on it, to exciting things, crafted with the smelted iron! It looks like he can make all the same tools he has so far, but out of iron! There are also ways to make what look like scissors, an iron boat, and iron clothing!
Great! He'll start with just the sword and pickaxe, though; he doesn't have unlimited iron.
His top priority right now is making a book, in which he can write down all of these combinations before he forgets them. Hell, he already forgot how to make stairs and had to rediscover it. What can he make with paper?
He can make a book out of paper and leather! But... he can't seem to write in it.
Fine. He'll expand his house once the morning comes, and make a room full of signs with recipes on them.
It takes him about a week (two hours), but: enormous wooden book!
(He has also grown and harvested wheat in the past two hours, and learned that it makes bread.)
He'll find some more iron, and then an area with a darker sort of stone. (It's minable, albeit in a cobbled version.)
Even deeper, there's this area. (The dark blocks only drop the little green orbs.)
There's also a blue kind of ore, which drops little pieces of dark blue dust.
The green orbs disappear and are therefore useless. He'll go back up to a different area of the cave.
Purple cave!
He finds more of the familiar types of ores, plus a new one that drops red dust.
The sickness doesn't take too long to go away, although he has to eat most of his food to heal himself.
He also finds some gold ore in the area he runs to.
He's going to make a new furnace right here, and turn some of his iron into armor. He nearly died there.
The iron hat, shirt, and pants seem to protect him more than even the magic golden pants! Although he doesn't feel completely safe.
