A multitude of players came to The Temple of Notch and offered diamond swords with knockback 2, punch 2, smite 5, bane of arthropods 5, and even fire aspect 2. Some offered whole blocks of diamond, gold, and even emeralds. Whoever gave the most valuable gift would be declared Notch's most beloved player. Suddenly, a newbie came up and offered two iron ingots. The other players were appalled. Did she not know that she was to offer something valuable? Notch came in all of his creator of Minecraft glory and said:
"This newbie is my most beloved player. She gave her only iron ingots and now I give her the bedrock sword with Fire Aspect 3, Bane of Arthropods 10, and Punch 5!"
What would I learn from this?
This is a Biblical parable told in a different way. It means to give your best. Newbies may not have as many things as you, but they still love Minecraft.

A Child of Dishonor
Caitlin told Steve that she will have a child soon. Steve, shocked by the news, asked how it could be. After a long day of making diamond items, he was certain that his ears were weary. After sleeping, he knew that it was true. Caitlin ate only porkchops one day and the next apples. This continued for nine in game months.
Caitlin named her twin sons Notch after the creator of Minecraft and Herobrine, the origin of this name unknown. Steve favored Notch and Caitlin favored Herobrine. As Notch and Herobrine grew, the more they hated each other. Notch created wonderful things and Herobrine scared the people that came to admire them. Caitlin, all too aware of this, asked Herobrine why he did this.
"Why do you scare the people that admire Notch's inventions and art?"
"I don't know. They just look at my eyes and run away."
Concerned about this, Caitlin examined Herobrine's eyes and discovered that they were not indigo or black. They were completely white! She informed Steve of Herobrine's eyes and Steve looked at his child's eyes. He too, saw only white.
Later that day, there was a flash of light and a knock at the door.
"Come in," Caitlin said meekly.
"Caitlin, former hostage of the Ender Dragon, mother of Notch and Herobrine, wife of Steve, I am here because one of your offspring has won my favor," boomed the voice. "Notch's ingenuity and desire to learn is what I need for I, as Notch, creator of Minecraft, need these qualities."
"I'm here," Notch announced and the Creator of Minecraft tooh him up and left. Caitlin cried and gathered excessive amounts of wheat and cocoa beans. She gave Herobrine cookies and milk for a snack. She cried over the crafting table as she made the cookies. Steve ate one and failed to comfort his lamenting wife. Herobrine went outside to pick flowers for his mother.
Meanwhile, Herobrine ventured into the fields looking for the very best flowers, vibrant golden dandelions and roses as red as apples. He stumbled upon a NPC village and asked the villagers for flowers, but they ran away in fear. The Creator of Minecraft returned, saying this:
"Caitlin, former hostage of the Ender Dragon, wife of Steve, mother of Notch and Herobrine, Herobrine has been declared a child of dishonor for scaring villagers!"
"It's his eye color! He can't help it!"
"Now he shall cease to exist!"
"Wait! I love him too!" yelled Steve "I believe that as Herobrine's father that I have a voice in the matter."
"Speak, husband of Caitlin, master of the diamond pickaxe, father of Notch and the accused."
"Let him live! He did not want to scare villagers!"
"I will not change my mind."
"Let Herobrine live, but like Caitlin did before I met her, as a sojourner, a fugitive, undesired until the next update. Then lock him in a hidden, inescapable prison."
Steve and Caitlin had other offspring, about 20 million total, before and after Notch and Herobrine and all of them are players of Minecraft.
