Treasure Hunt

A tale of a Pirate: Cap’n Bones spent his lifetime sailing the high seas with The Red Beard Brothers. They targeted vessels throughout the dark seas. Their crew was ruthless and looted any vessel they passed. They quickly became the wealthiest pirates of the seas. Their crew decided it was best to disband. Their crew parted ways and Cap’n Bones decided to settle down with his share of the booty in the small town of Harrison.

Cap’n Bones is still trying to find a safe place to keep his hoard. He decided the best way to find a spot was to hide small pieces of gold in tiny treasure chests across his new homestead. He reveals riddles to many treasure questers to see if his hiding spots are safe enough to hide his fortune. Only one spot has proven to be worthy. This spot contains the infamous chest one. However, he still doesn’t feel too confident.
