Nether

As I emerge into the Nether, I expect to see Ghests and Poglins. But no, those are... Ghestlys? and Pokachus?

Uh-oh. This isn't the Nether I was expecting. After talking to some of the less wild denizens of this place, I find out that yes, it's still possible to get eyes of ender here, but they're all controlled by someone named The Champion. And it seems that in order to meet this Champion, I'll have to collect several Badges by defeating various Gyms around the Nether. I'm no Trainer, so I don't know if I'm cut out for this task.

But just as I think that, I realize I can feel more puzzles, one in each Gym. Maybe I'm more ready for these battles than I expected.
