Ahoy, again, mee piratie maties! On my travels this year I ran across a thin and hungry skeleton of a man on a derelict ship named La Scarlett Persephone anchored just off Le Cove de Gerraldine. The unfortunate soul, christened Jean by his desperately poor mother, told me of a treasure so fantastical, so unbelievable, that not even I, the greatest buccaneer to have ever sailed the nine seas; not even I, the hunter who found the narwhal with the golden tusk; not even I, who stole Blackbeard’s golden teeth from his mouth while he slept; not even I, the man, the legend, the Dread Pirate Bob, did believe him at first.
He spoke of a treasure guarded by a fierce and ferocious and deadly diabolical eye. An eye that can kill. An eye that eats its prey not for food but just to be really really mean.
But the treasure of which Jean Evharette (for that was his family name), this glorious treasure of which Jean Evharette spoke left me incredulously speechless. The bobbles! The unexpected delights! The magical trinkets! I at once knew I wanted it for myself.
Alas, by the moss that grows in Captain Sparrow’s beard, I have not been able to find this wondrous bounty. And now, as I am bound for the French Antilles to repay Chevalier du Plessis in the barbarism with which he attacked my grandmama’s retirement home in Haiti. So unfortunately, it is up to you to follow the map Jean Evharette bequeathed to me before he retired to Arizona.
Poor Jean left breadcrumbs scattered across the Isle d’Heartsteen. All that I have is the first one, which I’ve now given to you.
(And here’s the rest of the clues!)
