Every Minecraft player knows the sound that makes your skin crawl—the little “tch-tch-tch” of silverfish in the walls. 😬 That’s exactly where Skeleton Steve and his crew find themselves in Season 3, Episode 5: deep underground, tired, hungry (Ulti, anyway), and surrounded by the kind of mobs that make even creepers think twice. After everything they’ve been through in the Sleeping City, you’d think things might calm down. But nope—this is Skeleton Steve we’re talking about.
Writing this one was all about capturing that feeling of being so close to the surface, but having the Minecraft universe throw one last curveball at you. Silverfish infestations, lava pools, glitchy weirdness—it’s basically a survivalist’s nightmare (or a player’s Tuesday). I loved exploring the tension between pushing forward and stopping to help, especially when your friends are depending on you and your arrows are running low.
Big shoutout to all the readers who’ve stuck with Skeleton Steve and his pals through Season 3—you guys are the reason this Minecraft diary series keeps growing stronger than a beacon on full power! This one’s packed with action, heart, and just enough humor to keep things from getting too creepy-crawly. Or … Glitchy. Check it out Free on KU, and remember: if you hear something scratching in the stone, maybe don’t mine toward it.

Silverfish Problems
At long last, wounded and ragged, Skeleton Steve, Skonathan, and UltimateSword5 manage to escape the Sleeping City and are on their way back to the surface world–back to normal life! The one last stop? They’re traveling through tunnels and ravines to an old abandoned mine shaft, so they can find some wood, finally make some pick axes, and get the heck outta there!
But having a Minecraftian with them in an underground world of mobs isn’t easy, since every mob they encounter wants to eat poor Ulti. And when the three heroes are waylaid by a desperate clan of silverfish on their way to the mines through an area of lava pools, will Skeleton Steve fight his way through to his ultimate goal with his friends unharmed? Or will he stop to help the silverfish with their Glitchy problem…?
