#### On Rose Gold

By William the Miner

*Contents*
**TOP SECRET**
This manual is the property of William Mining Co. If you are not William Mining Co. employee, please refrain from reading this manual and return promptly to William the Miner.
Ah, rose gold - a loverly combination of silver, copper and gold that smelts into pinkish-orange metal. Most use it as an alternative to gold for crafting rings as it is much less expensive. However it has some interesting qualities that are easy to miss.

**Creating Dust**
Rose gold, once smelted, can be crushed into a fine dust. Look closely at rose gold dust in bright light, and you'll see shiny flecks of pure gold!

**Washing Dust**
With a little work, we can extract the gold from the dust and create pure gold ingots. Simply mix the dust the bucket of water. The lighter silver and copper components will was away, leaving you with about 6 small piles of gold dust.

**Extracting Gold**
Arrange 9 piles of dust on your crafting table, and if you're lucky, you'll find a gold nugget in one of them! And of course, once you have 9 gold nuggets, you'll be able to craft them into a solid gold ingot.

#### Beware the Infection!

By Richard the Zombie

*Contents*

**What is the Infection?**
I discovered a long time ago that the zombies that appear at night were once villagers! Newly infected villagers slowly turn green, feel unwell and may be unable to speak properly!

**Curing**
Contrary to popular belief, any infected villager can be cured. Fit a villger a golden apple to cure an ongoing infection. If the infection turned the villager into a zombie already you must frist weaken th zombie with a potion, then apply the golden apple.

**Curing 2**
Any other zombies you see unfortunately are too far gone, and cannot be cured.

**Curing 3**
Zombies will take a couple of minutes to be fully cured. Villagers who were recently infected, though, and have'nt had time to degrade into a full zombie, will be cured instantly!

**Warnings**
VIllagers are highly susceptible to infection, decrease the rist of infection by building an infirmary!

#### Death, and How to Cure It!

By Ozzie the Warrior

*Contents*

**Graves**
When a villager dies, his corpse is buried in nearest grave. So make sure to keep a polt in your greavyard empty

**Summonig Grim**
Unfortunately, the only entity capable of defeating death is death itself: the Grim Reaper. To summon him, you must build an altar consisting of 3 obsidian coumns that are at least 2 blocks high. They may be higher if you like.

**Summoing Grim 2**
In center you have to place sacrifice, an emerald block

**Summoning Grim 3**
After building the altar, wait until night and light all 3 collumns. When you're ready to fight, light the emerald block and run!

**Fighting Grim**
Grim is tough. Use full diamond armor, lots of potions, and lots of enchantments. He can:
* Fly
* Block attacks
* Blind you
* Move your items
* Teleport

**Fighting Grim 2**
If you hit Grim while he's blocking, he will teleport behind you and strike. Do not try to use arrows or poison, he is immune!

**Fighting Grim 3**
When Grim loses too much health he will teleport into the air and begin healing. While healing, he will summon his minions from the underworld to fight you.

**Fighting Grim 4**
When Grim is healed, he will continue attacking you, but he won't be able to heal again for 3 minutes and 30 seconds. Each time Grim heals, he will not be able to restore as much as he did previously.

**The Scythe**
Once you land the lethal hit, he falls back into the void and leaves his scythe behind. The Scythe, feeling ice cold on touch, is a mighty tool. Strike down a villager to charge the scythe, then transfer thes stored soul to the gravestone.

**The Scythe 2**
But your friend will rise infected, as the time underground left some marks. You can probably heal him somehow, my friend Richard once wrote a book about this topic.

**Staff of Life**
However, there is another, more peaceful solution. The Staff of Life! Instead of a poor soul, it usses the Neather Stars concentrated power to revive.

**Staff of Life 2**
The Staff is a powerful item that can revive up to 5 people. Unlike scythe, it is even capable of erasing any sickness from the revived person.

#### Relationships and You

By Gerry the Librarian

*Contents*
Interactions is key to building relationships and finidng the love of your life. I've happily written this book in order to share my knowledge of interactions, love, and, unfrotunately, divorce, to anyone who may need a little push in the right direction.

**Personalities**
When speaking to any villager, you'll notice they have a personality. Pay close attention to this! Some people like jokes more and some a hug. Some personalities are more obious than others. Hover over the personality to see some hints.

**Moods**
Every person has a mood, which is always apparent when speaking to them. Moods can change throughout the day, and determine how likely a villager is to like certain interactions

**Moods 2**
The death of villager seems to put those nearby in bad moods. Taxing also gradually decreases the moods of everyone. Gifts and successful interactions are known to boost moods.

**Interacting**
Choose wisely when interacting with a villager, based on their mood and personality! If choosing a romantic interaction, be sure that the villager you are talking to likes you a lot.

**Interacting pt.2**
Dont be annoying! Talking to someone for too long will bore them, and your interactions may stop succeeding. If this happens, simply wait some time before trying to talk to them again.

**Gifts**
Gifts are another great way to win someone's friendship. But again, be careful who you gift what. A fisherman loves fish, but oh my, dont ever gift a smelly fish to a noble lady.

**Marriage**
To get married, simply gift a villager a wedding ring once you feel you have reached the highest realationship leve.

**Divorce**
Unfortunately, sometimes it is best to split from your spouse and move on. To do this, look for cleric to get divorce papers. Then talk to your spouse.

**Divorce pt.2**
Alternatively you can end marriage without papers, they will not be happy tho.

#### Managing Your Family Vol. XI

By Leanne the Cleric

*Contents*

**Babies**
When you are married, simply approach your spouse and offer to 'Procreate'. After a Short dance, you'll be the pround owner of a new baby boy or girl (or maybe even both)!

**Growth**
Babies take time to grow, make sure to hold them until they are ready, or give them to your spouse to take care of. Once a baby is ready to grow, you may place it on the ground and it will grow into a child!

**Adolescence**
Children will grow slowly. However, the magical properties of Golden Apples are said to accelerate any child's growth. I have yet to try this myself.

**Chores**
Any child can farm, cut wood, mine, hunt and fish. You'll need to provide them with the tools they need to do so. If a tooll breaks and the child doesn't have another, they will have no choice but to stop working.

**Greed**
If you notice your child has a Greedy personality, be careful! Greedy children are known to steal away items that they may pick up while doing chores.

**Mining**
A special note on mining here, most children have a peculiar ability to search for and locate ores underground. This activity damages any pickaxe they may have in their inventory.

Adulthood
As **said** as it may be children will eventually grow into adults. Once they are adults, they will no longer work for you. Adults can be married off by using Matchmaker's ring or they will eventually get married on their own.
