Jewel's POV.
        I was still processing what Nimic told me. Ender Eye? Power? ME HALF ENDERMAN?! I felt dizzy with this sudden info.
        After walking for what seemed like generations, we came to this cave-like structure. Nimic looked cautiously around before placing his arm in a slot. There was a small click, and the structure opened like a door. Nimic roughly pushed me in and quickly closed the door behind us.
        "You didn't have to shove me inside, you know." I grumble.
        "Sorry, I just didn't want anyone to see us." Nimic said.
        He grabbed my hand again and we started walking down the long path. It was so cold and dark in there, I could hear my chattering teeth. I stepped closer to Nimic for some more protection.
        After a short walk, I could see a glowing light source. It was purple, and it got brighter with each step. Suddenly light exploded into my face when we walked into a small room.
        Once my eyes adjusted to the harsh glow, I saw a necklace hanging from the wall with a glass barrier around it. The chain was black, but the crystal on the end was in the shape of an ender pearl.
        "I-It's beautiful," I stammered.
        "Yep, but that's not why thieves want it." Nimic said matter-of-factly.
        Nimic walked over to the glass barrier. He barely tapped it with his arm, but the glass shattered to pieces. Don't wanna get on his bad side if he's that strong, I made a mental note.
        He carefully took the necklace off the wall, and walked it over to me. "Ok, put it on."
         I was a little hesitant, but I carefully took it from Nimic. It was surprisingly light-weight, which would make it easier to wear. I slipped it over my head and rested it around my neck. I felt fine for a second, then I felt a piercing pain in my chest. I looked down at the necklace and saw that spikes came out of it and went through my clothes, into my chest.
        I fell onto my hands and knees, the pain slowly growing. Then all I saw was a powerful purple light, then blackness.
