THE STORY OF THE WITHER: Here's my idea of the story: The paintings and recipe for red sandstone is a warning left by the ancient builders. The painting shows people that the Wither is deadly and possible symbolizes the two dimensions it wrecked, and the red sandstone recipe tells the player to build it in a Mesa where there aren't any souls around. This could also mean that this is what they did, however it is unlikely considering how strong the Wither must've been to destroy a civilization. It probably had many animals around to kill. The red sandstone tries to warn the player not to make the same mistake. The chiseled nether brick recipe will be explained later. What you have to realize is the Mobestiary is a player/settler trying to figure things out. There can be red herrings that aren't true. However, I will have to obtain it in the future for research as to see just how accurate it may be. If the Mobestiary is right about the scholars, they were theorizing the Wither's existence before the painting. The painting likely was from somebody who has been to the nether as seen by the red sky. But wait a second, how could people theorize about it if it was never seen before? And that is where we deal with setting. This book likely talks about a time AFTER the ancient builders. and the painting could have come from a survivor that saw it's creation. I have opened a tab with the page about the Wither, and I noticed something: the writer acts as if the Wither has been summoned multiple times. The writer states, "There are many ways to fight the wither. Some use trickery, summoning it in such a place that it suffocates in bedrock." Notice how it said that some people use trickery when summoning it. Not "will use," but "use" This means that summoning it is not an uncommon thing. Everything points to this being after the extinction event, where a few of the ancient builders survived. This is the story of the first Wither. The original Wither must've taken over the Nether, unable to fit through the Nether portals and instead destroying them with such force that both sides are broken with purple goo leaking out of some blocks. The ancient builders in the Nether created fortresses, and in the recipe books they depicted wither skeleton skulls to mark the purpose. This might have later been what allowed scholars to theorize about the Wither: the depictions, and the wither skeletons. Anyway, though the fortresses survived, the builders did not. They were instead turned to more wither skeletons and now are a means for the player to summon the Wither. The Wither then went to the Bastions, which were used as stables, treasure rooms, and mining outposts. The ancient builders, knowing of their impending doom, armed the piglins with golden weapons and crossbows. All of the better gear was in the fortresses. They fought with the piglins against the wither, but fell. The ancient builders were turned into wither skeletons and helped the Wither, so the piglins learned that these black bones were no longer their friends. Now they fight any wither skeletons, knowing what they are capable of making. Eventually, the piglins killed the Wither, and any surviving builders escaped to the Overworld, and depicted the scene of death in a painting to try and frighten others from creating this monster. The piglins that were withered but not killed were zombified, with their skeleton showing. Builders that withered away without being killed directly by a skull were turned into skeletons in the Nether. The warped forests emerged from the soul energy in the Nether. Somehow the Wither's rampage must have mutated the mushrooms into soul powered mushrooms that have enough energy to show it in their color. These fungi are what make a warped forest instead of a soul sand valley. There are whole biomes that are filled with the souls of the fallen builders and piglins. The painting inspired the settlers to try this in the Overworld out of curiosity, not caring about the fear of the scene. This is what caused the extinction from Withers to continue in the Overworld. The Wither caused the builders to seek something that would kill it. It had taken the souls of many animals and builders, causing the few that remained to put the recipe on chiseled red sandstone to show any person crazy enough to try this to make it in the mesa, where there are few if any animals. Nothing seemed to kill it, and each death made it stronger. Over time, they went underground to the Ancient City. As seen, or rather heard in Disk 5, the builders tried to make a portal to another realm to escape. They probably used some warped materials knowing that they had soul energy. They also used soul sand and soul fire, having learned of it's potential. Finally, they needed a hard material, unlike the weak netherrack. They used the deepslate around them and even possibly some bones from the skeletons, which are withered builders, to make a frame, and soul fire underneath to give heat to it. Then, the Wither approached, and they had to try it. They went from the deepslate caves to their barracks to gather forces to... wait, The Game Theorists already explained this. Anyway, they open the portal and something similar to the Warden comes out. They are silent and still in fear of this new horror, but the Wither knows no fear. it thinks it's the apex predator. But this new creature begs to differ. In one shriek, the strengthened Wither is killed, and the souls from it are used to corrupt the ancient city and much more of the underground. Shriekers and sensors rise from this skulk, and Sculk Catalysts are formed. The bones of the Wither fall into the sculk, and this monster goes back to where it came. The portal closes, and the builders feel a sense of relief, with this new plant-like thing. They don't know what they've brought, however. The unearthed bones make up the shriekers, and after they set enough off, the sculk feels endangered and creates an abomination out of bone for structure, skulk to hold it together, and souls to power it away from the sculk. The Warden. This thing starts killing, and after they try to adapt to it with wool, they realize they need to find an escape. They see the zombies from the illagers, skeletons from the Wither, and Wardens from the Sculk, so they try to find somewhere else. They build the strongholds, with winding corridors and numerous staircases to escape the Warden if it were to get to it, and a portal room where they worked on their final escape. They tried to build the End Portal, and would meet their end. But that's a story for another time, as is the tale of the illagers. The story about the Wither is over.

I have a controversial but interesting idea. Look at the center of the wither (the bones) and look at the warden. Other than the small hole the warden has which has souls in it, it looks like they are formed from the same kind of creature. Since they have the same kind of body structure

This is the most interesting video that dragonic made! Keep up the good work Dragonic!

"the wither will summon wither skeletons when it reaches half health" Java edition: let me introduce myself

My theory is that the builders easily managed to defeat the wither, they even started farming them. But one day, a certain command block found it's way into the world, and that caused a certain... Storm you could say. There's no evidence for this but it sounds nice that the minecraft storymode world is somehow connected to the actual minecraft, and besides, the world would have been destroyed had it not been for Jesse destroying the command block.

Matpats theory says that the wither skeletons were ancient builders, but you get normal skeletons in the Nether. They aren't black either. My theory is that there were actually two different races of ancient builders. One race was taller, the ones that were killed in the Nether become wither skeletons. This ancient race eventually evolved into endermen. Either this evolution took place before the outbreak of undead creatures in the overworld or this ancient race was immune to the plague and carried that immunity into the endermen. This explains why there are no tall zombies or skeletons. The wither skeletons remain because it's not a virus that's keeping them alive. It's the evil force which permiates the Nether.

Theory: The wither the settlers created might be different from the wither we create using 4 soul sands and 3 wither skulls. The wither skulls of the wither might be the skulls of the dead soldiers that got burned in the nether. The soul sand is a collection of souls. The nether didn't have soul sand before the wither died. So what happened is that a sorcerer painted the wither painting and knew that the painting he created will eventually lead to the destruction of the ancient builders. So the sorcerer painted it, placed it outside where some people can see. A group of settlers saw the painting and got curious. They attempted to make the brown thing and made a prototype. The prototype soul sand they made might be very strong because they have never created soul sand before. So they might have used the souls of the fallen soldiers thinking that the creature they are gonna build will be like the iron golem. So they used the souls and the 3 skulls of the fallen soldiers. They placed 4 soul sand in a T shape, and placed 3 scorched skulls on top. The souls powered the new creature, the wither. The wither might have bigger than the wither today because the ancient builders didn't know how many souls they should put on the experiment. The giant wither shot skulls everywhere, killing many people. The wither eventually escaped the lab and started destroying cities. The wither has the power to apply the withering effect on anything. So when a creature gets killed by the wither, the creature's soul gets absorbed by the wither and leaving a flower with the effect withering. The withering effect happens when the withered plant is stuck on the creature with it. That's why when a player gets hit by a skull, a plant with withering stick into the plaher, causing the player to wither away. The wither continues to destroy cities. The ancient builders had another problem. While making a prototype of the soul sand, they brought back the dead. The dead infected the ancient builders. Somd ancient builders went into the nether and infected the nether. That's why there are zombie piglins. Then some of the ancient builders escaped to the end, while others stayed in the nether. They defended against the zombies and the wither. Finally, the ancient builders got killed and they coded that the blazes should kill the ancient builders so that the wither will not follow them in the future. The ancient builders killed themselves using the blazes. The wither found a bastion, where the piglins are, and the wither tried to get souls from them. The piglins finally killed the wither and when the wither died, all of the souls got crystallized into a nether star. But the nether star couldn't handle the compression and exploded. All the souls got flung into the different regions of the nether, leaving only the large fossils of bones and soul sands becoming the soul sand valley. The modern wither has less souls in it than the first one, so the nether star doesn't explode because of compression. The nether star is like the sun. When the sun can't handle too much pressure, it explodes into a supernova. The remainding ancient builders got stuck in the end and never returned. And that's my theory.

I always needed the answer. Thanks 👍🙏.

Red chizeled sand stone may be the only signs that left from an even older civillization that got destroyed by the wither. Dragonic sayed that it generates rarely in mesa biomes and because there is no rain in some biomes like desert it may stayed without being turned into sand by the air conditions.

if the ghast tears are Made out of souls, then the end crystals are crafted using them, because the souls give energy to crystal. Aj overwhelming energy that IS the reason the explosions of end crystals are so powerful.

5:04 I like magic tricks and this magician is the fan boy for magical tricks and I like magic tricks do

You make the best story videos Dragonic, can't wait to watch this one!

You have to look at the advancements and achivements.they give lots of clues as to what happened like the one called "free the end"

Question I said a theory about the Warden in your video: Why Wardens Are Blind (Minecraft 1.19) and I was wondering if you could make sense of it? Thanks

Glad this guy is uploading again

I like how alot of wither theories pretty much end up in "oh hey what if we try this" then "suffering from success"

dragonic: minecrafts "hardest" boss crackers wither storm: AM I A JOKE TO YOU

Bedrock wither is the one you should really be afraid of. They explode on death, have more health, and they have a charge attack the destroys a lot of terrain and does a lot of damage.

Now you need to do the wither storm lore

them: the wither is the hardest boss to beat. everybody: *goes underground creats a hole and tunnel and then spawns the wither*

At the “it continues with quote:” part after u said quote an rise of kingdoms ad started playing 😂

“One of the hardest bosses in Minecraft” It’s one of the only two bosses in Minecraft so that is only technically correct.

your great but your underrated, I wish you had more subs dude

Amazing theory

9:22 i can see the nether star when wither has low health he looks like a nether star combined with wither

Your my favorite and you inspire me a lot

Dragonic: 5:14 mc dungeons players : (O _O )

Great video man! Keep it up!!

Props for the players who had to beat the wither with just diamond armour

One thing you failed to notice: At The end of Disc 5 you can hear Wither death noise implying that The Wither went into an Ancient city and got killed by a Warden

Is warden a gaurdian of the ancient city.origin of ancient city,is that the portal to a new dimension,made with reinforced deelslate.

Fun Fact: The early version of beacons had a small end crystal, the same color as the nether star

I'll work on my full theory series soon to make a more logical story that can't ever crumble

think of it this way with a space fact when you go to space your loong spine will grow in size and make you a tiny bit taller whilist you"re living in space i think thats why wither skeletons are taller than normal skeletons...well technically at least maybe something made their spines grow in size and thats why they appear taller?..it makes sense to me

But i say that the painting was just painted by the rest of the ancient builders that die after create the painting.

Great video!

5:27 but that's a story for another, WHAT IF

Only problem with this theory is that there seems to be no evidence of things destroyed by the wither in minecraft worlds.

Okay, but any thoerys on why the beacon needs a pyramid of precious meterial to activate? Is the power of the neather star not enoguh?

Can you do story of wither storm?

ive been into minecraft lore recently. HELP

I believe the evil artist existed in Minecraft.

I thought that red sky in the painting was the brick wall but I was wrong

*Your videos are always so funny and so entertaining, keep it up!* 😂❤️❤️

best storyteller ever!

maybe the wither when killed drops it's nether star because when they are kill, they're corrupted souls get sucked into a single star to be kept in until summoned again

My theory: The painting was made by a corrupt adventurer, once he made it the people decided to make it, thus born the wither. For my theory enderpearls are crystallised souls which power certain things, so the withers soul powers beacons made of soul energy.

cuze he can heal and using the nether star you can make beacon and beacon can use to heal it has effect regen

Literally nobody every questioned why the wither drops a nether star. If they do they usually make a 5 second joke and move on also love the vid my first video watched from your channel new sub.

Do the witherstorm next

Wither one of the hardest mob Warden: am i a joke to you

The sound is freaking scary

That’s crazy

Settler derpys Last Words Itll Be fine

Mattpat has a more believable version of the wither.

Good vid. Make more vids.

When I saw the title and thumbnail I was expecting for this to be a shitpost

Yeah but I was thinking about what will happen if we put a command block at the center of the withers rib cage dragonic.

Painting appeared after scholars

The wither storm recipe is three soul sand and 1 command block and 3 skulls

I learn many about wither and other mobs

This must mean that that the soul speed boots power u to run quicker by using the energy of dead souls

was the recipe book created by the ancient builders? if so how would they know about the nether star to even make a beacon?

Good lore I liked it

this is enough lore now… i-im taking a break

Why do shulker make us fly I would make a video my self about it but idk how to make backstorys

can i get the skine? + good vid man keep it up

Unlike the wither where it drops a nether star , the warden drops a single item: the sculk catalyst

Are Steve and Alex the last "Ancient builders"?

I have a theory so i think some of you know about lucid dreaming if you don't well lucid dreaming is actually a dream that you can control you can fly you can make things. soooo steve the player is in a dream because steve the player can do imposible things like carry hundred of blocks he can respawn when he die

wither skeletons are actually the dead bodies of the ancient builders that were buried in netherrack but the netherrack under the Dead ancient builders which were in the grave the soul Sand formed in the soul Sand sucked up the souls of the Dead ancient builders and then the dead ancient builders decomposed into wither skeletons

Temples have same shape as a beacon

The thing about HUMANs creating bastions is a thory, however on the blocks it has the piglin on it , so i believe the builders made nether fortress's and i hve loads of evidance

Nether star ore, form soul sand

there is a bit hole in this theory... the wither can't go through nether portals

i thingk the nether star power the wither and heal him cuze beacon can also be use to heal and the wither heals and when its low health it has like nether star particles sarrounding him like a shield

Derpy saw a Creeper

There’s literally no theory about it you just put some soul sand in a T so the heads can actually be there and the nether materials just combine to a nether star

do mine gods create it? how many soul has the wither taken?

K pitching my idea before watching the video first: So I kind of think the wither creates a star the energy of the wither fusing together like how a star collapses into either a black hole or a neutron star, the nether star being like the 'neutron' star(meaning we haven't seen a wither strong enough to form what would be the 'black hole' equivalent :o) however this is based on how the wither explodes upon death in bedrock so this idea falls apart in java where the wither just goes poof

Ender man can only teleport to a dimension if there is a connection between them because you free the end and open the portal

the reason why withers drops a nether star because it was coded like that

This is cool but please can you cover why the wither is so much stronger in bedrock than java

I love your videos

1:34 Not anymore 😈

4:37

Red sky = nether, it was like the overworld so when the wither was made it had been destroyed

Has anyone read any Mojang Minecraft novels? First of all, they’re very good books, but they may also hold clues to lore..

The question is how did the obsidian becomes crying

Niiiice

What about Minecraft story mode?

I think that the Wither actually met it's demise to the Warden, because maybe the Wither escape through a portal that was accidentally lit after the ancient builders closed the portal and then killed a ton of creatures and managed to go down deep into the ancient city and that's when the Warden was summoned and tour the Wither to shreds

Souls are way to strong for one skull so why not 3 and 2 of them can shoot soul skulls

This is the meaning about wither.

Try wither storm

Can you explain why Musics plays inside of the Player's Mind? And how do you fit the name of Musics in the lore of Minecraft For example,Ballad Of Cats Only plays in the nether,but there are no cats in nether Ghast sounds are sound of a sleeping cat So "Ballad of sleeping cat"? Do ghast wanted to rest because they haven't sleep for a long time That explains why they are pale and white Now one thing is what is the meaning of "Ballad"

What if the wither was verybig this is shown becouse of the fossils then went back to the overworld and died and that's why fossils exsits

Hmm yes the lore of minecraft

Awesome
