This is another cache in the series and is a Wherigo, which will require you to download a cartridge here in order to find the final. All the remaining caches in the series are placed in Indianapolis Parks Department managed land, with the exception of the final. All of the caches have limited hours of availability, due to posted hours of operation NO NIGHT CACHING!
Norlod the gnome emerged from his underground home this spring, just like every prior year. However, Norlod had an extremely bad winter and was grumpy beyond belief, so much so that the cavorting pixies he encountered upon coming to the surface filled him with such angst that he decided to make them feel as rotten as he did. Rather than give them an earful, he took it much further than anticipated. Norlod actually managed to ensnare six of the flying pixies, all around Indianapolis, trapping them with his magic and keeping them from flying free. Norlod was able to do this by using his magic and forfeiting one of his jewels to hold the spell needed to keep the pixie from escaping and flying away. The other pixies, once they realized what was happening, banded together under their queen to prevent him from capturing any more. They managed to capture him themselves and tied him up using their own magic, taking his beloved gems in the process. They let him know that they would only release him and return his gems to him if he would promise to show them how to free their fellow pixies. Norlod agreed and told them how to counteract his magic, thereby freeing the captured pixies from his spell. All they needed to do was recite the word on the gem and the pixie would be released from his spell. Once all of his captured pixies were released from their bondage, the pixies released Norlod, making him promise never to do anything like this again. The queen also let him know where his gems were hidden, by cleverly using Norlod himself and the very words on the six gems Norlod used to magically ensnare the pixies. Her revenge on Norlod was particularly sweet to the pixies because Norlod was unable to figure out how to retrieve his gems and to this day, they sit unfound, unclaimed, and awaiting someone clever enough to figure out the riddle of the queen of the pixies.
You are going to be one of the pixies that sets out to find all six fairies that Norlod captured and free them from their magical prison. Once you find all six fairies and break the spell that holds them, you'll need to figure out the riddle of the queen in order to locate Norlod's gems.
This is the fourth fairy that Norlod captured and just like the third one, she led him on a merry chase. However, unlike the third fairy, this fairy had some woods to hide in that allowed her to stay free for a longer period of time, but it was all in vain as Norlod finally managed to ensnare her. This 12 zone Wherigo brings you to 100 Acres to wander the same route that the pixie used to try to escape from Norlod before he finally captured her. Except for the final, there will be no need to leave the trail (unless you want to!). You'll walk just over 1.5 miles with the large majority of the walk being on crushed gravel or well packed dirt trails. The T rating is reflective of the area around the final GZ.
