  By the time my papers had been located and the form filled and stamped by the jury and my luggage had been found and loaded on a three-wheeled cart, Joe's sun was setting. A guard who talked enough to reveal that his name was Smith guided me through the stifling streets. Already the dark nebula was visible and thunderclouds on the horizon added to the possibility that the sky was having convulsions. 
  Smith helped me pull the cart up a ramp to the planked walk of the outer wall. Guards stood at intervals and peeped through infrared goggles or checked strange instruments. Some laughed after we passed.

  Steve has kept himself quite busy, being the only builder in the world... 
  It's a fact. No matter how hard he has tried in the past, the villagers never catch on. So resigned to being the only one with his incredible, if he does say so himself, skill, Steve has settled into retirement from being an adventurer and instead turned to building. 
  After all, he’s defeated the Ender Dragon, explored sunken ships, and even gone on a mad run through the Nether. There can’t be much left to do, can there? 
  Even if it is a little bit lonely, being the only builder in the world. 
  Before long, Steve notices strange happenings around the mighty fortress he calls home. Sheep being let from their pen, blocks where they shouldn’t be, chests missing all of their items. 
  Steve doesn’t remember building that staircase either, but it had to have been him! 
  Hadn’t it?
