The anniversary of the death of my beloved friend and protector, Blitz, passed yesterday. Blitz was a tri-colored Collie who was a prince of a dog.

easily killed by a gold or iron sword, as they are not very "healthy" creatures. Skeletons can shoot you with arrows, so get up close or practice your strafing! They can be killed with arrows as well, and will leave bones that you can use for training dogs or for bonemeal in your farming. Zombies spawn at night and find the nearest village or person, swarming with the intent to kill. Just like you'd see in the movies, they try to transform everyone into more zombies.
