Geocache Description:

The coordinates are close to a good place to park for the final expedition. The terrain is quite serious. The cache is under a peaceful resting place overlooking a valley.

A gas lamp flickered briefly as the old wooden door opened. The telegraph operator looked up briefly, wincing , and reached for his pad. "I'm afraid it doesn't look like good news Brother", the operators eyes darting to the scrawled notes and then to the other mans pleading face. "What we just received was gibberish, the poor man must have been losing his mind or possessed". "Why do you say this?" the Brother asked. "The last we heard from the mission everything was well. The new buildings were up before the monsoon rains, everything was fine!" "But this message, it's not, not.." "Not what? What is wrong, let me see.", muttered the brother, becoming annoyed. "I fear it is not from their telegraph operator but from Brother Tiresias." said the operator. "It couldn't be, I know the man well, apart from being blind I am sure he can't operate a key." "Before this last one, the operator sent a message yesterday saying a strange illness had befallen the mission." "They were going to hide the church treasure in a location called "The Slot", for safekeeping" ".. and what's more I barely understand what was sent, no gaps, nothing. Here, see for yourself!" The brother took the pad and looked, what he saw did not bode well: chastan aimconta woomtoo ecibife nodtwamn moomoon "And this was the last message?" quietly whispered the brother. "I'm afraid so"
