Help Miniphasic retrieve the treasure stolen by monsters from his castle! Children will enjoy the locations...
Our second cache and another multi, once again combining some things we've enjoyed about other Canberra caches. Seems as though a few cachers enjoyed our first one, so Miniphasic and I decided to try something different, but hopefully just as much fun.
This multi is based on a story thought up by 4 year old Miniphasic, we hope you like it!
The monsters (trolls and dragons working together) have raided Miniphasic's secret castle and stolen all of the treasure! (If you get FTF try to rescue the kidnapped travelling turtle!)
Thankfully one of the observant guards in the tower saw the troll and dragon (possibly a ctenophorus) escape, split up, and hide in locations just outside the castle's circular walls. He is sure that they dropped a couple of clues on their way - possibly so their associates can find the treasure if they are caught...
The troll hid in the usual place trolls like to hide. The dragon hid in a different spot, where similar dragons like to hide.
From his position up in the tower the guard thought they looked to be very strange clues indeed...
Task 1 / WP1: Find the location of Miniphasic's castle using the secret code! Good spot to park, but be careful, you are only allowed to park on one side of the road.
[Find and observe the obvious 7 digit number in the area nearby abcdefg. S35 a(b+d).(d+e)(f-d+c)(g) E149 (f-g)(c+e).(e+d)(f-e)(f)]
Task 2 / WP2: Miniphasic's Castle - Observe the surroundings from Miniphasic's castle tower and spot where the troll and the dragon (what was its name again?) hid separately outside the circular wall after their escape. With the two clues retrieved, solve the puzzle to reveal the location of troll castle, and return each clue carefully before moving on. EDIT: Looks like the clues are faded again, I'll replace next week (Possibly printed with incorrect ink, sorry) WP3 can be found by following a nearby place 'where wizards would never live' to the next castle.
Task 3 / WP3: Troll Castle - The guard from Miniphasic's tower recalled the troll telling the dragon to take the treasure back to his lair, and some strange distant conversation about the location being revealed by things at troll castle: horses being a, wombats b, ladder rungs c, and yellow segments d.
Location of the lair:
S35 14.(c+d)(a+b)(d+c) E149 04.(a+c)(b+d)(d-b-a)
Task 4 / Final: The Lair of the Dragon - It is here that you will find Miniphasic's stolen treasure. Please be sure to leave it in its place, record your details on the 'ornate scroll', and report back to Miniphasic and Telephasic so they can send the guards to retrieve the treasure for its rightful owner!
(If you are FTF please rescue the kidnapped traveller and send on its way!)
FTF congrats to turtle rescuers and defenders of Miniphasic's realm: STORMCATCHERS
