Sure, he grew up to be your number one nemesis – but he wasn’t always so set on Overworld domination!

Minecraft Dungeons Obsidian Pinnacle Secret: How to Open the Secret Room
The secret is a hidden room containing one of the nine runes needed to open the portal back at the church.
Obviously, it goes without saying that in order for this room to have any significance, players will have had to unlock and discover the cathedral, first. Inside is a switch that needs to be hit before the rest of the endgame content becomes available. This switch essentially "activates" the secret rooms in all other levels—including the Obsidian Pinnacle.
For the Obsidian Pinnacle, specifically, the room is located in the library. During your next playthrough, scout the room entirely to find a suspicious-looking bookcase on the left side. There should be a single book out of place that you can press to reveal the hidden room.
The room contains one of the runes needed back at the church. Collect it and be on your way.
