Arrrrr, Ahoy, and Avast!
Welcome, book-aneers, to the search for the hidden treasure of Captain Cutter the Mildly Fearsome! Not being a dummy, Captain Cutter knew that there is treasure hidden in books, so the best place to hide his loot would be the library.
Not wanting any old treasure seeker to get their hands on his gold, Captain Cutter left a series of clues that will test your wits and require you to seek answers both on the wild seas of the Internet and in the stacks of the library.
To begin, you’ll need to solve your first riddle to uncover the rules of pirate treasure seeking (they’re more of guidelines, really).
(and don’t forget: when you absolutely, positively have to know, ask a librarian.)
Pirates are a suspicious lot,
Taking care to avoid the big black spot.
But for treasure seekers, lucky you
That spot will lead you to your first clue.
