Tales of the Dissolutionverse

The crystal wall of the Nether could never be climbed, until now!Natina grew up studying the artifacts found by her mother, a famous explorer. She'd be comfortable helping her parents research at home, if only her mother were home more often. Now her mother wants Natina to join the expedition to climb the incredibly high walls of the Nether. The discovery of an ancient steampunk beetle that can drill into the mineral of the Nether means they will become the first to ever reach the top of the wall, if they survive.The Nether's walls are smooth like crystal, any fall will mean certain death, and no one knows what or who may lurk above the clouds.
