Geocache Description:


The Wand of Zark is believed to have come into existence around Zarkian Year 3589, which equates to 10,560 BP for us Earthly dwellers. The wand was forged in the great palace of Emperor Gudds, and designed to do nothing other than control the Galaxy of Zark.

It could, in fact, control any galaxy in the universe. However, how were the Zarkians to know that other galaxies filled with life existed? (It was a time similar to that of the Dark Ages here on Earth) Most Zarkians still believed that Uns 34, the local heated gaseous orb of fire, orbited around the planet of Zark.

Anyhow, the Zarkian emperor ruled over the Galaxy for the next 200 Zarkian years. When he passed away, his sons fought over the Wand. Somehow, during the raging riots, it was taken out of the atmosphere and dropped into a wormhole. Without the wand all of the other planets in the vicinity ordered war on the Zarkians, who were now helpless. Yet another planet lost to fighting.

Meanwhile, the wand had zipped it’s way to present day Earth, where it came down and crashed somewhere in the vicinity of the Tri-Lakes Area.

So, now that the evil-superpowers know where the legendary wand is, they are rushing toward the crash site from all around the Milky Way, in an effort to be the next to control the galaxy with the Wand’s immensely destructive powers. You can probably guess what your mission is… Head to the vicinity of the crash and locate the wand. This isn’t some call to save one of our many small coordinate storage buildings again. This is one that will save our planet as we know it.

We need you to locate the Wand with precision coordinates, so as to avoid days of possibly fruitless searching. We have received a message from a worker at Area Q454, and believe that it is related to the location of the crash.

Here is what it said: 7-3-B-A-25-17-3

Good luck agent.
