Crimson Forest is the home of the Piglins in the Nether. Nothing special or interesting ever happened there, until a few months ago when a human entered the biome for the first time. Calvin, a Piglin, made friends with Professor Armstrong and even became his assistant. With Calvin’s help Professor was able to make the greatest finding in the Nether, the discovery of the Nether Dragon! With the Professor’s help, Calvin’s dad and other missing Piglins were rescued from the Piglin Brutes.

The unimaginable happened. Calvin Pignes, the new Detective of Crimson City had to arrest one of his closest friends for allegedly conspiring with the Triad Bastion. Evidence found in the bastion’s ruins points to Calvin’s friend but his friend denies the allegation and says there must be some kind of a mistake. It is up to Calvin to solve this new mystery. How can he prove his friend’s innocence? Or will his investigation prove that what he thought to be his ally is not really innocent after all?

The Triad Bastion has been defeated. Calvin’s Dad has been elected as the new mayor of Crimson City. Calvin is now the city’s first detective. Calvin decided that for his very first case as detective there is nothing better than to find out the identity of the ‘Secret Scientist’ behind the Mind and the Explosive Potions. With new friends by his side and a new adventure in the horizon, Calvin Pignes sets out on a new journey to discover more about the true, dark and cruel history of the Triad Bastion and the human who helped the Triad Bastion.

Calvin and friends have found a new ally in Fogu. With Fogu’s help, there is a greater chance at capturing the evil Wardens, Tera and Kalo. Tera and Kalo have been trouble from the start. Now, they have released all prisoners from The Halebury Prison, causing more chaos in the Overworld.

Calvin and friends have been played and fooled by Kalo and Tera. It turned out that the Warden siblings were not the victims at all but were the ones seeking the ruins of humans and other creatures. Kalo and Tera were now on the loose wreaking havoc in the Overworld and they have teamed up with an enemy from Calvin’s and Johansson’s past. It’s up to Calvin and the rest of the gang to stop the Warden siblings and their ally and prevent them from doing further harm to others.

The Triad Bastion might have been destroyed by Calvin, Professor Johansson and Beatriz but Calvin will soon discover that there is a secret criminal organization that works relentlessly to avenge the fall of the Triad Bastion – the Triad Society! One of the Triad Society members was a police officer in disguise whose plan failed when Calvin and Peter warned everyone in Minerland about his evil plot. The other Triad Society members are now plotting to attack Minerland again, and they are threatening the detectives to stay off their path.

The triad bastion has been defeated, the triad society ceases to exist and the Piglin terrorist has been eliminated. There is finally peace in the Crimson Forest and even in the whole Nether. Detective Kelly thinks Detectives Calvin and Peter deserve a much needed break. Crimson City is indebted to these two heroic Piglins for protecting the city. With time to waste Calvin and Peter is ready to find the treasure indicated in the map found in the possession of D’tort. What treasures will they find or does the treasure map’s undecipherable code hold secrets that should have remained hidden...

After announcing to the citizens of Crimson City that the previous dragon attacks were all fake and that Howard Piggleborn was behind it, a family of five piglins was kidnapped after having their home being partially destroyed by fire. According to eyewitnesses, it was a Nether Dragon who did it. Howard was already in jail! Who could have done it? Are there other Piglins in cahoots with Howard? Or is it an enemy from the past who have a grudge against the Piglins?

Now that the Nether Dragons have their new leader, Krop, their race has been saved from extinction and more Nether Dragons will spawn in the Nether. But the Piglins are not happy with having the Nether Dragons in their realm. A group of Piglins even formed an Anti-Dragon Association to voice their opposition against the Dragons, saying these ancient creatures are violent, aggressive, and a threat to the Piglins’ safety. Calvin and Peter are determined to show the Piglins that Dragons are not enemies, but friends and they are willing to form an alliance with the Piglins.

The Triad Society has been destroyed. The new era between the Nether and the Overworld is about to begin. Can anything go wrong in Calvin’s world? This ‘new era’ would start with the opening of the borders with the city of Minerland in the Overworld. The Mayors of both towns–Robert of the Overworld, and Carl of the Nether came to an agreement and decided to unite both worlds. This partnership is positively received by all citizens from both sides of the Portal. However, a missing human scientist is about to make a scientific breakthrough about an ancient creature.
