Day 45:
Dear Tim,
TIMOTHY! YOU NEED TO GET AWAY FROM THE REDSTONE! I cant explain everything now as time is of the essence, but i will tell what i can. I found some of this mysterious redstone. I took it home and after some testing found that it contains traces Cadmium. Cadmium is very toxic and though not noticeable at first it has most likely seeped into your system from so much bare contact with it.
I fear that my findings are too late. I have sent urgent letters to Melinda and if she takes my note seriously then hopefully she is even now rushing towards you with the village doctor.
Sincerely, your dreadfully fraught friend Zak

Day 40:
Dear Tim,
Tim what has come over you, what madness has taken hold of you to forsake your friends and family? It must be this “redstone” it might have harmful chemicals in it? You shouldn’t be using it until you figure out whether its safe or not….
i found a ravine today it was interesting but i was distracted as I worried about you all day. Please just leave the redstone alone for a while, for my sake.
Sincerely, your worried friend Zak

Day 38:
Dear Zak,
You dare attempt to ask for *MY* profits? This Redstone Dust is MINE and far too valuable to be handed out to such commoners. My inventions so far are modest, but I have much more elaborate schemes in plan. I have begun with a simple melon farm. This farm is automatically harvested via a complex network of Redstone wiring. I can afford no more outside distractions. My contact with you may become more infrequent. I must continue my work.

Day 35:
Dear Tim,
You simply must send me some of this red stone dust you have acquired, It looks most magnificent. Your inventions sound interesting also and important, but you musn’t forget to write Melinda! Trust me she will appreciate it if you take the time to send her a heart felt note. I know that your writings mean the world to me.
I went to gather more supplies for my home today, which is coming alone quite well, and i found the most amazing tree. It was as if the seasons had hit one side and not the other, it was marvelous!
Sincerely, your wood punching friend Zak

Day 33:
Dear Zak,
Apparently this “Redstone Dust” has some perplexing qualities. It seems to be an excellent conduit for some sort of “current.” This allows it to activate varying components in some… inventions… that I’m working on. This is all too exciting. The courier keeps sending me messages from my fair Melinda, but I can’t be bothered with that now. I have work. I must not be disturbed.
With Haste, Timothy

Day: 31
Dear Tim
Oh Timothy how you have fallen into the trap that is love so quick. I would advise that you don’t hasten in your romantics. I don’t want this relationship to end up like Courtney and you’ve got so much more diamonds this time than last. I’m just saying don’t rush into this and don’t flaunt your money around and don’t be rash or stupid and send me a picture of Melinda.
I was working on the roof of my new home last night and I just saw the most beautiful moon. I really like the view from my new home.

Day 32:
Dear Zak,
Oh you and your temporary homes! How they continue to… be temporary. what was it that happened to your last one? Burned down, didn’t it. Oh well, at least you had fire insurance. You did mail that check, right? Anyway, my date went great! She is quite the looker and fancies me so! The villagers here continue to refer to a nearby temple that appears to be abandoned. I wonder if it’s for sale. It would certainly be convenient to live closer to my beloved Melinda. And I’m sure I can spare the diamonds…

Day 30:
Dear Tim,
I am so…. happy for your recent wealth, I hope your date goes well though. Be sure to take her someplace nice and not one of your cheap dirt hovels. I have finally landed and made a dock and small temporary home. Its not much to look at but its home for now. I cant keep writing as i have lots of work on the new home so for now good luck on your date.

Day 27:
Dear Zak,
I’m sincerely sorry to hear of your hardships, especially in light of my recent triumphs. I started work on my first mine earlier this week and fate has surely smiled upon me! My toils have been paid off with my acquisition of diamond, lapiz, coal, gold, iron, and this mysterious red stone I discovered. It seems to crumble to dust whenever I mine it, might as well hold on to it though! With my newly acquired wealth I think I shall pay a visit to the nearby village. I had my eye on a certain young lady whom I can now afford to take out to dinner! Wish me luck!

Day 23:
Dear Tim,
That would explain why your collection of hand written zombie fan fiction was not in your room and why the entire house was dusty. This is my second day traveling with nothing but the ocean in every direction the squids seem to be my only friends. I hope i find land soon my supplies are scarce… water water everywhere but not a source block to drink…
FINALLY! land sighted, lush green trees on the horizon this is promising. I have discovered some cliffs and close to them some dangerous oceanic anomoly. A whirlpool! I got only as close as I dared. I have finally found a suitable place to make a new home, I shall start construction tomorrow.
Yours Truly
Zak
