Little does he know his quest will change him and the Underland forever.

The Quest Continues...
Meeting another builder had been one thing, but to learn there was a whole city out there was a bit much for Steve to swallow. As much as he hates to admit it, he’s nervous. Nervous about the idea of leaving the home he’s made for himself, of leaving the village behind, of meeting other builders and perhaps, learning that he’s not the best of the best. For so many years he’s just been Steve, the only builder. Steve, the Hero.
What if he isn’t the only Hero out there? Worse still, what if no one needs him around at all? What if he gets to the new city and discovers he’s not at all special?
But as Alex and Steve make their way across the land, the two discover strange sights. Unsettling sights. It looks like the city isn’t the only new, alarming thing for Steve to uncover - someone else is walking among the wilds, and they’re looking to cause trouble.
It’s up to Steve and Alex to find a way to stop it.
