'''Way of the Nether''' is a free [[Minecraft:Marketplace]] map developed by ''Razzleberries'' that promotes the [[Minecraft:Nether Update]].<ref>{{Mcnet|the-nether-update-here|The Nether Update is here|June 30, 2020|[[Minecraft:Per Landin]]}}</ref> The map is a sequel to [[Minecraft:Way of the Bee]], picking up where it left off and featuring a new story about the characters coming into conflict with Nether mobs. The map was delisted from the Marketplace on June 18, 2024.<ref>{{Cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbLJ5yNTvnw&lc=Ugw9oQL9anU2M_OUJ-d4AaABAg|website=YouTube|title=Comment from @Razzleberries
|quote=⚠️⚠️⚠️IMPORTANT⚠️⚠️⚠️ 
The Way of the Nether has been indefinitely removed from the Marketplace. 
 
🔴Reason: This map could no longer keep up with the newer versions of Minecraft which created a lot of bugs and issues and made it hard to play. 
 
❓Why not update? 
This is a joint project between Razzleberries and Mojang. As its not just ours, we would need permission and a greenlight from Mojang to rework this piece of content. 
 
❓Will we ever see it come back? 
Nothing is impossible! But we cannot say for certain whether it will or won't come back. Although we would love to see it revived someday! 
 
Thank you for understanding.🙇

== Summary ==
The player spawns in the hub; to start the game, they must enter the portal bearing the map's logo. The player is transported to a house, and upon exiting, they need to approach a [[Minecraft:villager]] named Bruce, who is standing by a [[Minecraft:ruined portal]]. When approached, Bruce will point out the ruined portal and ask the player to go and warn the Mayor. Now the player needs to go to the house to the left of the portal; there, a villager named Marie will meet them and say that something strange has happened to the Mayor. Next, the player needs to go into the house and go up to the second floor to take an [[Minecraft:iron sword]], [[Minecraft:iron leggings]], 16 blocks of [[Minecraft:obsidian]] and a [[Minecraft:flint and steel]]. And from the chest on the ground floor, you can take 3 [[Minecraft:firework rocket]]s, a [[Minecraft:diamond]], 9 [[Minecraft:gold nugget]]s, and [[Minecraft:leather boots]]. Then you need to return to the portal, finish it and activate it, and then head to the Nether.
=== Nether Base Camp ===
The player spawns at the Nether Base Camp and must approach a ruined bridge; an NPC Bridge Foreman explains that the Major crossed the bridge to the castle before a [[Minecraft:Ghast]] destroyed it, though repairs are now underway. Suddenly, the Major appears on the roof in a strange guise, declares that he has taken over the Major's body, and laughs menacingly. You can take a [[Minecraft:clock]], a [[Minecraft:compass]], [[Minecraft:iron boots]], and [[Minecraft:arrow]]s of [[Minecraft:regeneration]] and [[Minecraft:night vision]] from the chest next to the NPC. Then player must then speak to the Nether Scientist, who explains that to bring the Major back, one must defeat the evil force that has taken control of him and so, that means need to get ready to complete "Way of the Nether." The scientist says that no time should be lost. And you need to follow him to [[Minecraft:Soul Sand Valley]].

=== Soul Sand Valley ===
In the Soul Sand Valley, Nether Scientist gives the player [[Minecraft:diamond pickaxe]] to obtain 8 [[Minecraft:netherite scrap]]s by mining [[Minecraft:ancient debris]]. And after the obtaining, the scientist leads the player into the [[Minecraft:nether wastes]].
=== Nether Wastes ===
At the entrance to the wastes there is a melting house with 8 [[Minecraft:furnace]]s inside, in which the player needs to smelt netherite scraps. You can get a [[Minecraft:trident]] from the chest next to the [[Minecraft:grindstone]], and after smelting it, you need to follow the scientist to [[Minecraft:Basalt Deltas]].
=== Basalt Deltas ===
The scientist leads the player through basalt deltas, and upon emerging at a wall of [[Minecraft:netherrack]], the scientist suggests the player circumvent the wall while he takes some important notes. The player will need to pass through several ghasts along the way, and after passing them and meeting the scientist, he will lead the player to the [[Minecraft:Crimson Forest]].
=== Crimson Forest ===
In the Crimson Forest, the player and the scientist must follow a path of [[Minecraft:warped fungus]], as they repel the [[Minecraft:hoglin]]s that inhabit the forest. However, the path ends along the way, as the [[Minecraft:piglin]]s have stolen several funji from the path. The player must go to the cave on the left, retrieve the funji from a chest guarded by piglins, and then place the funji on the [[Minecraft:warped nylium]]. The player and the scientist walk along a path to a building with a [[Minecraft:crafting table]], where the player must craft 2 [[Minecraft:netherite ingot]]s and then climb up the [[Minecraft:warped vine]]s onto a ledge to enter the [[Minecraft:Warped Forest]].

=== Warped Forest ===
The player and the scientist follow the path to a small settlement, where they are met by the evil Major, who summons piglins and hoglins to stop the heroes. After defeating the enemies, player head to the lava river, where they must pick up a [[Minecraft:warped fungus on a stick]] and mount a [[Minecraft:strider]] to cross the river. After crossing the river, the player and the scientist reach the [[Minecraft:Bastion]].
=== Bastion Remnant ===
At the bastion, the player must approach the [[Minecraft:smithing table]] to upgrade his [[Minecraft:diamond chestplate]] and [[Minecraft:diamond sword|sword]] to [[Minecraft:netherite]] ones, and also loot the remaining netherite equipment from the chests. Afterward, they must proceed to the bridge, but a ghast blows up the bridge, and the player must carefully cross the debris to reach the nether village.
=== Nether Village ===
While the player was crossing the bridge, the Mayor caged the Nether Scientist, and the player must rescue him. The village is filled with villagers and [[Minecraft:iron golem]]s, which have become covered in [[Minecraft:warped fungus]] instead of vines. NPC Bridge Foreman gives you a [[Minecraft:bow]] and a stack of [[Minecraft:arrow]]s, and the player goes to rescue the scientist. The player must shoot the target with an arrow to free the scientist. Once the scientist is freed, the Bridge Foreman approaches him while the other villagers flee, and iron golems are going to kill the hoglins around the levitation lift; the player then needs to enter the levitation lift to reach the upper level for the boss fight with Mayor.

=== Mayor Boss Fight ===
The player meets the Mayor on the roof; he claims that even Netherite armor won't help defeat him because he is invincible, and the boss fight begins. To damage the Mayor, the player must first deactivate seven Soul Soil Fires located along the sides of the tower while the Major spawns mobs: [[Minecraft:blaze]]s, hoglins, piglins and [[Minecraft:wither skeleton]]s. Three of the four lower fires are deactivated by pressing a [[Minecraft:button]], while the fourth requires hitting the center of a [[Minecraft:target]] with a bow. To reach the two upper fires, the player must climb [[Minecraft:crimson vine|crimson]] and warped vines, and to reach the last one you need climb the steps. After deactivating all the fires, you must kill the evil entity that has possessed the Mayor; once it is destroyed, the Mayor returns to his normal villager form.

=== Ending ===
After defeating the evil entity, the Mayor thanks the hero for the rescue, and the Nether Scientist mentions that there is a portal at the top of the tower. Upon entering the portal, everyone returns to Poppy Island, and a "Thanks for playing" message appears on the screen. Behide to the portal, a [[Minecraft:blackstone]] building with chest appears with a distorted sign reading "WARNING only use in nether, -Scientist." Inside the chest lies a pile of [[Minecraft:glowstone]].
