Geocache Description:


T H R O N E   OF   G A M E S

This cache's location is easy to find, but will you be worthy and wise enough to gain entrance beyond the secret door?

The coordinates will lead you to a stone path in a peaceful village.
Follow the short path* until you reach a small, but majestic castle.
(You may lower the drawbridge and explore the interior of the castle - 
but your true quest is to find the hidden door!)

Beware of the dragon as you carefully sneak around to the rear of the castle.
There you will find the secret locked castle door! 

To unlock the door and reveal the treasure,
you must solve these 4 curious couplets.

When Gyrffindor and Slytherin clash to seek the Golden Snitch,
they would count ___ rings on a standard Quidditch Pitch.

When Aslan returned and the white witch fell,
___ children were crowned at Cair Paravel.

As King Arthur lobbed the Holy Hand Grenade, He...
...mistakenly counted to ___, (not three!)

The vengeful Inigo Montoya had no concievable love,
for the man who had ___ fingers on his right-handed glove.

___  ___  ___  ___

If this puzzle proves too difficult and Sir Google couldn't help, feel free to reveal the helpful hints.

The first few finders will discover a brood of baby dragons. If you prove yourself worthy, the mother dragon will allow you to adopt one of her babies. After the first crop are gone, more will show up from time to time. 

Enjoy the adventure!

*Feel free to use the nearby driveway for wheelchair access.
