Geocache Description:

One of the caches in the Deltora Quest series.


The evil Shadow Lord is plotting to invade Deltora and enslave its people. All that stands against him is the magic Belt of Deltora with its seven gems of great and mysterious power. When the gems are stolen and hidden in dark, terrible places throughout the kingdom, the Shadow Lord triumphs and Deltora is lost. In secrecy, with only a hand drawn map to guide them.

Our geocachers are on a perilous quest to find the gems stolen from the magic Belt of Deltora. Only when all the gems have been restored to the Belt can their land be freed from the dark power of the evil Shadow Lord. To find the cache, our heroes must travel through territory rules by the monster-sorceress Thaegan. Their journey is filled with treachery, trickery and danger, and at its end they must face the hideous guardian of the enchanted Lake of Tears.

Beware the evil eel Soldeen guardian of the secret location where the cache is hidden. Soldeen lurks in the murky depths of the Lake of Tears. Created by the wicked sorceress Thaegan he can breathe both air and water.

The cache contains a logbook, pencil, swaps and a card with a gem clue. Remember to record the details of the clue; you will need this information to solve the location of the final cache in the Deltora Quest. These caches have been placed with the assistance of seven and twelve year old boys. If you know a child in this age range you may find that they can be very helpful.
