Geocache Description:

This is the third (the naming of the cache has another reason) of
five caches. Because the starting point can only be solved by the
secret word of “Seomans Secret 2” the cache is listed as mystery
cache.

Story Inspired by Tad Williams, „MEMORY, SORROW AND THORN“


As Tiamak washed his hands in the water bowl he had put out before leaving, crouching because there was no room to sit between his obsessively scraped and polished writing board and his water jug, he heard a scratching sound on the roof. He listened carefully as he wiped his hands dry on his waistcloth. It came again: a dry rustle, like his broken pen being rubbed across the thatching. It took him only a moment to slide out the window and climb hand over hand onto the sloping roof. Grasping one of the banyan’s long, curving limbs he made his way up to where a little bark-roofed box sat atop the roof peak, an infant house carried on its mother’s back. He ducked his head into the box’s open end. It was there, right enough: a gray pigeon, pecking briskly at the seeds that were scattered across the floor…..





(GC) Search Info

Dr. Morgenes first provided for his apprentice Simon a small hint to find Nisses secret:
Dr. Morgenes
With the provided hint and the secret word on the hidden treasure (cache), Simon was easily able to find the first of five caches:
Seomans Secret 1
The second hideout provided Simon another secret word: (Seomans Secret 2)
Seomans Secret 2

Tired from his latest adventure, the second stage in Urmsheim, Simon just wants to rest and maybe to sleep in a real bed. On his way south, he meets an old friend of Dr. Morgenes, Tiamak. The old man couldn’t wait for Simon to enjoy his tea at the warming fireplace to tell him which news he got from a pigeon Doctor Morgenes had sent him some weeks ago:
“Dear Tiamak, this maybe will be my last precious news to you. My apprentice, Simon, will need your help. He is the one to find Nisses Secret, I’m sure you’ll meet him someday. Give him these two scrolls and tell him to start at the “Bull-Woods-Tail” with the coordinates

Starting point:
N48° 20.425 E14° 19.511

Bull-Woods-Tail:
N48° 20.(425+2*GAMMA+15) E14° 19.(511+GAMMA+24)

(But I'm sure, he could do it without the coordinates, too) He will know what to do. Thank you for your help and friendship Tiamak.Farewell old friend.”
