Minecraft is no stranger to unsolved mysteries. And one of the hardest and strangest to solve is the Nether Fortress. What is this thing and how does it connect to Minecraft Lore as a whole. Well, after a bit of digging I think I have a good interpretation of the story of these structures. But it isn't happy... This is the Tragic Story of Minecraft's Nether Fortress

@@RetroGamingNow uhhhhhhhhh
@@RetroGamingNow um... You're... Actually here... OK.
@@RetroGamingNow What's the are?
@@RetroGamingNow can you guys do a collab? I think pretty much everyone wants you guys to.
A few things I think you should have explored and added into the theory: - Regular skeletons also spawn in fortresses, although much less frequently then wither skeletons; - Wither skeletons and piglins are hostile towards each other. The same does not happen between piglins and blazes, which only attack each other when provoked; - Piglins become zombified when going to the Overworld, and are strangely more tame when zombified. Hoglins also become zombified, however become extremely agressive in the process, attacking every other mob in the game; - Even more curious, piglins and hoglins are not immune to fire despite being native to the Nether, but their zombified counterparts are. Other than that this is a good video.
also, wither skeletons are taller than regular skeletons
And one more strange thing, Blazes attacks the Wither, and so do the Wither, it's strange since most mobs have to be provoked to start attacking the Wither, this makes me think that apart to being a farm to make potions, they also were made to protect the fortress agains't the Wither
I also want to note that hoglins are hostile toward allays
yes this is truth
Skeletons only spawn in Nether Fortresses if the Fortress spawns in a Soul Sand Valley. Edit: I am wrong, please ignore this comment.
I like to think Blazes are melted-in-lava Wither skeletons, with their teared up ribs becoming the 12 floating rods (like the 12 pairs of ribs on a human skeleton). Melted enough to fusion into really hot and strong material, it explains this metalic sound to their breathe and the nature of their fire throwing abilities.
That's what I thought 2
Victor JOZEK, why aren't you writing your own your story with that theory/lore of yours?
@@TotallyNotMangoFruit Nah nah nah, I meant why isn't he writing this in a book. The blaze rods are so clearly obviously melted rib bones that became crystalized under the heat, while the skull took longer to do so as it was a cursed black skull that was hollow within. The crystal like features is how I explain the metallic and ultimately scorched surface breathing If I ever write a story featuring the Nether and it was about a Nether Fortress, this is the lore I'd be looking for right here. Hell, why not even throw in a familiar foe you know all too well? The Wildfire can be it's own hostile, but the Hovering Inferno would be a boss worth reaping the rewards However... I've got ideas that you might not agree on though that's not stopping me from including them into the hostile itself either way (Hint: "Nelo Angelo")
I like the thought of blazes being nacho dipped wither skeletons - I'm going to call blazes nachos from now on
That actually makes sense

To me, the lava well could very well be some sort of altar. Kind of a sacred room at the core of their fortresses, dedicated to the worship of some deity. Maybe its purpose was to protect the fortress against external attacks, by placing it under the protection of a god or goddess.
I just thought it was a safer way to produce nether bricks
nononononono
Or *hear me out* Lava in the nether is the equivalent to water in the overworld. They basically plumbed some into the fortress.
@@MrHydra12 makes sense, considering theres literal oceans of lava in the nether
@@MrHydra12 for some creatures but not the people from the overworld
Just to add to that, based on the design of the nether fortress, I think it’s likely it started as a nether hub. The long isolated pathways were designed not as protection from zombies, which could be accomplished much easier with much shorter platforms, but as protection from ghasts and piglin raids. Ordinarily you would want to concentrate the forces of a fortress, make them easier to defend, but on a nether fortress, the paths are important, they’re roads in another hub. At the end of each path was probably a portal that they destroyed when the zombies attacked.
I wonder How nobody saw your comment. This reminds me of the fact that If you build a portal in overworld at long distance, the spawning location in the nether also changes. This is incredible. There definitely something at the end of each pathway.
I thought about this too If all the path ways and such were for safe and quick transport in the nether. It could explain the horse armour and the saddles being the chests since the pathways are big enough for horses
Now im curious about where you would end up if you made portals in the spots that seem like portals should go there

Ultimate Pog Moment
Just to build on this slightly, undead mobs take damage from potions of healing. One of the only places you find naturally generating brewing stands (besides villages) is in the End ships. And of course, every single one of those brewing stands are stocked with potions of healing. This leads to my theory that the ships were constructed in a last ditch effort to return to the overworld and eradicate the zombies by raining those potions down from above.
So is it possible that the ancient builders went to the Nether but eventually their fortresses fall and they had to flee back to the overworld. Then using their knowledge of potions they went to the End as a final desperate attempt. This is also the general route the player would go in survival...the nether then they visit the End. Quite litteraly, the End for the ancient builders
From game theory and what I’ve seen in comments they needed to make a cure for a virus which was turning people into zombies so they made the igloos and tested cures on villagers then they conducted experiments on blazes, killing people to make them and using the skeletons left over the souls in soul sand make wither skeletons which would explain why both are hostile then fearing the creations they tried to make a guardian. The Wither which is also why you get The Beginning because this is the beginning of the end for the builders, so then running was their only options and using scraps from their tests before they made a portal and then they ran through using some other scraps to make the Warden including souls stored in soul sand then using the ships they made the end cities using scraps to make it which would also explain the elytra because that was their most prized possession, the only way back to the normal world but then after a diet of chorus fruit they became enderman
The brewing stand in the hidden rooms of igloo: *allow me to introduce myself*
Thanks for the good content. Great job. I had to subscribe
9:45 I agree with this that seems the most reasonable.
Now the "a terrible fortress" achievement makes even more sense
My thoughts is that the fortress was originally just made for potions (blazes are natural and the ancient builders farmed and put them into a spawner) but then they found out about the ancient giant withers. They then made it into a fortress to defend and all of the wither skeletons are ancient builders who died from ancient withers.
Yeah
That's what I was thinking as well.
Wow, I see plenty of us had the same idea

Really cool video! I really think Minecraft Lacks of a good Lore , with all this soul related blocks, colors and sound, the End dimension, the bastions, everything could be linked in a really dark story! Thank you for real! Now we have something to start creating that good Lore!
Love the video and the story👌 I do have an alternative theory tho. What if the dimensions were fighting eachother. That's why there are strong holds in the over world that lead to the end and fortresses that protect the nether. Ther are also end citys guarded by a dragon. The overworld has mob spawners spread across the world to protect against any possible intrusion. The loot in the chests in all dimensions comes from looting the overworld after a raid or battle between them.
The "This is truly a terrible fortress" with the advancement was a perfect ending. Chefs Kiss
while this does seem like a pretty good theory, I feel like it could be possible that all the Wither Skeletons are just the fortress' members who were killed by the Wither, since mobs killed by the Wither drop Wither roses, so it wouldn't be too much of a stretch if the ancient Withers could turn things they kill into Wither Skeletons. The current Withers are much weaker than the theoretical ancient ones, so their power of doing this would have weakened to a point of only turning things into Wither roses
The bedrock wither spawns wither skeletons.
@@Treble453 yes but only on hard mode

"Those Were The Days" being an advancement name really makes you think sometimes. I don't think Steve is necessarily human. He might be some kind of dark soul taking on a friendly form.

Heres a theory on the wither skeletons: the skeletons are the reincarnated (by the wither effect) remains of the casualties of war against the withers. The wither effect changed their bones black, and also drove them down a violent path. Also the fact of the wither skeletons are undead mobs would support this theory. This also makes me think of the wither effect as a virus, that takes control of its host, and "withers them away", brining the dead player into the vast armies of the wither skeletons. This theory would also support the fact that both the wither boss, and the skeletons give the wither effect upon getting damaged. As if they are trying to infect you, so you enter the endless horde of skeletons.

(Please forgive any and all spelling errors in this comment.) I think that maybe the Wither Skeletons are Enderman that died trying to fite the Withers, because of being infected by the Endermites, they're skeletons are taller then the skeletons in the overworld. (~2 blocks VS ~3 blocks high.) The skeletons in the overworked could also be from the Antion Builders that died there. This is just something I placed together, partly because I've heard so many theories on Minecraft and thought I might as well add my own theory. Although, WHY DON'T PEOPLE TALK ABOUT ZOMBIES IN MINECRAFT?! I mean, what made them /zombies/ kin the first place? Anyway, hope you enjoyed reading this and please note that I only watched the video until 8:38 before posting this. Now onto washing the rest of the video!!
Theory: The ancient huge whithers killed the some of the builders. They are obviously undead, what killed them? Considering how similar they are to the actual wither, could dying to the wither affect be similar to the zombie plague but with skeletons this time?

3:15 Who said the piglins made the bastions? It's called "Bastion Remnant" but if they are built by the piglins, it would still be a bastion, and not just a remnant. I think that the ancient race made them, but the piglins found them and inhabited them.
I think piglin society collapsed after the builders left, probably because they had no diamonds to infuse with netherite anymore, causing them all to panic and eventually just hoard the closest thing to pure netherite they had: Gold. Also without any pickaxes or good access to blackstone (because bastions cant spawn in basalt deltas) the piglins cant repair them.
i think that the piglins RULED the Bastion not made it. though its still a mystery
I thought there was a theory that the piglins used to be much smarter and more advanced, but over time they became consumed by greed and ended up just hoarding gold and losing their intelligence as the fail to maintain their own buildings and aggressively attack anyone who takes their gold or even just opening a chest near them that wasn't even theirs.
watch the main lore video (the ancient builders one)
Wifies is a quite funny and nice person! Keep up the good work!
My best guess is that the fortresses were in part ancient nether hubs. All the long corridors and bridges ending abruptly would’ve been connecting different nether portals for over-world locations, and the destroyed parts would’ve been where the portals were before being destroyed somehow. It would explain the seeming lack of purpose for the fortresses other than to guard the paths between the local clustering of portals.
Mini-Theory for the lava well! The builders could've used the lava to smelt netherrack and to make netherrack bricks. This leads to the "But they could just get it outside". They couldn't. It was much too dangerous. (Considering the giant withers theory) They used the well to safely get lava while staying away from the withers. The well, as any normal well, would refill with time. So they had a safe way to gather fuel.
kzhead.info/sun/msqjlZyjeKiOeGg/bejne.html
Or maybe putting the arrows in flames? Shooting an arrow through lava makes the arrow burn. Idk it makes sense to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s like when witches have water cauldrons, they have it for the purpose of not dying while trying to leave (for example: a human just appears there and kills the witch) to take water to make their potions. Also it could be that the swamp water is just too dirty and they just wanted pure water instead ._.

So this is how the race of the Steves went out: Overworld, 1010 So there was a virus and they made igloos to try to cure it on villagers. It didn’t work, so they resorted to the nether. They did experiments to try to make potions to cure the virus, trapping human souls into blazes, with magic fireball defence mechanisms. They then had to make more sacrifices, and those sacrifices turned into charred skeletons which were the wither skeletons, and the wither skeletons and the blazes took over the fortresses. Then they went back to the overworld and made the strongholds. Then they went to the end and were stranded there, so they went to the outer end islands, where they found chorus fruit and created the end cities. They ate the chorus fruit and hen they became the endermen from eating too much chorus fruit. And then one day, Steven, god of the Steves, went back home from his 1,000 year vacation and noticed that his creations had been missing for a long time, so in the year 2010 he created Steve and he did stuff and eventually started a race of block people and they had more creative names, like Stampylonghead, Grian, DarukFan64 (that one was me :)

Since the withering effect is associated or atleast related to soul sand, and further soul energy, I believe the wither and the wither skeletons, (who might be possesed/infused with the souls of builders, could be using the wither effect to siphon energy from living players to either grow themselves, or maybe to animate itself. This can be observed with the warden and the skulk, killing mobs to grow itself, and to increase its influence on the world.

My theory is that nether was once much like the over-world and lava was scarce, once a cataclysmic event (volcanic eruption?) Wiped the flesh off the innocent humans, changed water into lava, and the lava turned lush green into the brutal red. EDIT: Some people have been asking me about some of the nether features and what theories did I made for them, well I did make them but I didn't include it in the original comment because I thought it would make the comment even larger and hard to read. Here are them: Bedrock roof: If anyone knows how pressure works, you know that diamonds form because of pressure (The element carbon gets crushed under immense pressure and they form diamonds.); Similarly The bedrock roof formed because of Pressure, Temperature and Time, The volcanic eruption melted rocks below the Ground and turned Stone into gas, they get spewed off into the atmosphere, The gas solidifies at the "Edge" of the atmosphere and are not attracted back to the ground because, well Minecraft doesn't attract blocks to the ground except gravel, sand and other blocks like that. That solidified mass hardens over time to make the unbreakable bedrock roof. Ancient Debris: An Ancestor of bedrock. They will turn into bedrock in 4.2 Billion Years, Also they are mixed in with iron rust. Bones: Those dead animals fossilized by soul sand. Soul Sand: Ashes of animals Life on earth: The volcanic eruption formed Obsidian and the humans used it to make nether portals all across the nether, They couldn't escape in time, but the Plants did, The nether portal remains are the now popularly known Ruined Nether Portals That should solve all your questions!
Kind of a far stretch. Cool idea, but not as good of a theory as other people have thought of.
and some plants turned into ancient debris
@@t2mptedd517 Now that's dumb.
But how does the nether roof generated/exists? It also has a bedrock layer on the most top layer
Sounds like a doom invasion
My theory is that the nether portal is a time machine. U travel to the future where everything is radioactive, because when u travel underground u can sometimes here a radioactive meter thing sound. The piglins are villagers that mutated. Also they call netherite as ancient debris, which can be actually old rusted metal of the previous world. Or modern day.
Big brain
Or it’s just a different dimension
a mojang developer confirmed that the nether is simply a separate dimension. it is not deep below the bedrock, neither is it the future or past of the overworld. but dont let that stop you from getting creative
@Aditya vk clouds that are light and solid, they are held up somehow by the netherack
I hope they keep elements like this vague as it allows people to make their own stories (like how I had a story where Zombies came from people who first discovered the Nether who ate the rotten flesh of Zombie Pigmen, and the Skeletons came from victims of Wither Skeletons). At this point, any definitive answer could never live up to the players' expectations.

Oh my god this is not just the story of nether fortress, this is the story of builders who once tried to cure the plague and what they became. This is amazing!
Idea: The lava what is for cooking potions over, or to drop down the side of the fortress without having to go out of it, if there was an enemy attack
The Lava Room is the Nether Fortress Hub, and as such, the rest of the Fortress generates from that point. Also, Piglins can Barter some of the Items that you said you couldn't find elsewhere, such as Nether Brick and Iron.
bastions are lit with lanterns...made from iron
But they had to harvest and gather it themselves
To me the blaze has always been a defensive mob that hovers high above enemies(while not wandering far) that snipe you from extremely far distances (zombies are susceptible to fire as well). And they infinitely regenerate from the spawners.They’re a two in one defense system and farmable component to potion brewing. The “lava wells” may just be the easiest light source to to make. Make a bowl of heat resistant material and dump the bright lava in.
They should make a series
"It sounds like a human trapped inside a metal box" That didn't give me Companion Cube flashbacks at all.
To be honest the combo of blaze and wither is just op, when you are hitted by a wither Skele and get black hearted meanwhile a blaze shoots fireball at you, your hp gonna down with an insane acceleration.
Go in nether trade with piglin get fire resistance go to a fortress ez as that blaze are no problem
5:37 I would like to mention that the lava well _does_ have a purpose. As it is mentioned in the video, lava can be used to smelt things. Netherrack can be smelted into nether brick, which is (of course) what nether fortresses are built out of. Additionally, the extra space in the large room could be used to smelt large quantities of netherrack into nether bricks in a single area. This could also explain why wither skeletons are black, as the skeletons of the ancient race were likely charred or burned during the process of transforming netherrack into nether brick. Another thing worth mentioning is that the nether fortresses were built with corridors tall enough to let wither skeletons move freely, indicating that they most certainly played a role in the construction of the fortresses.
beutifully explained. you got a new sub
Why thank you Greatly appreciated
i like how combined with dragonic's ghast theory, this means there are three types of nether mobs: tortured soul boar cube
Wifies: “Why is it black?” Wither Skeleton: **intense taco bell sound**
Elder guardians love Taco Bell, confirmed
Matpat’s theory: Robot blazes and reanimated skeletons Wifie’s theory *souls of the dammed trapped in artificial body’s for all of eternity*
Wow this is haunting. Especially at 9:45pm at night lol
I really like the theories that Minectaft is a world recovering from some disaster. This makes the theories even better
