Scurvy treasure hunt

[markh]

arghhh... i be strugglin.

are ye talking about the relics... shroud of turin, crown of thorns in the spire at Notre Dame, ye holy grail in Glastonbury Tor...?

 

[JellyJoe]

Yarr, ye has all tha clues to draw yer paintings, all ye needs is a map to tha treasure.

 

[markh]

right. that's where i be strugglin' like a sea maiden in a net...

 

[JellyJoe]

Sometimes ye has a map, some other times ye has to draw yer own...

 

[markh]

AAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

This be more frustratin than tryin to drink me grog with a hole in me mug...

 

[JellyJoe]

Blimey, why ye keep yappin in steads o' drawin yer map, ol' barnacly keel mouldy seadog?
Ye has all tha spots ready, just sharp'n yer crayon and draw yer bloody portraits ONTO tha map.

 

[markh]

Stop yer yellin'! I did draw me map and this is what she showed me...

 

[JellyJoe]

Stop yer yellin'! I did draw me map and this is what she showed me...

?? Wot in ye seven seas be that? Me sees nothings!

P.S. Why did ye put a portrait of Ron Weasley in a driver outfit as yer avatar, har har har

 

[markh]

ye hits the nail on the head...

me sees nothin either, that be the problem.

shut yer trap ye old sea hag... that be Steve McQueen...

 

[JellyJoe]

that be Steve McQueen...

Me knows Stevie, thats clearly Ron Weasley

Draw yer damn map, ol' sluggish rottin' kipper. Ye has all the 6 spots, 3 per portrait. Then mate em and see wot comes out.
Remember ye has to gives me tha name o' a king and reason it.

 

[markh]

soooooo... i be hookin the big triangle and the little triangle together?

 

[JellyJoe]

Bust it, ye did smartly so far, but now me thinks a good pirate'd catch on quicker by tha thousand barnacle crusted keels. Ye has two portraits right? Ye has to has yem mate right? Ye has tha two triangles to mate, just pick a position n tell me tha name o' tha king, ye lazy seaweed.

 

[markh]

Might ye be speakin of the star of David?

 

[JellyJoe]

mmh how ye actually call that symbol?
Remember the king ye has to name had that symbol engraveth on his ring.

 

[9postguy]

If one superimposes, or mates, the two triangles created by drawing lines between the 3 points in each of the two "portraits", the scurvey-ridden fool obtains a hexagram (which later became referred to as the Star of David in Judaism). But before that, the symbol was believed in Medieval legend to be the Seal of Solomon - a magical signet ring possessed by King Solomon. The ring was received by Solomon from heaven.

King Solomon's Seal, whose base is on the ground and whose tip reaches heaven, symbolizes a harmony of opposites, super-human wisdom, and rule by divine grace.

 

[JellyJoe]

Ye gots it right, 9p yer very sly. But ye couldnt has done much without markh's researches. He dids all tha dirty job, ye has to admits and you only collected his clues to gives tha final answer, 'sides ye never speaks like a true pirate by tha thousand cannonballs.
Ye cans try the next map to search, try a little more answers and speaks like a true seaman and we'll see.
Fer these reasons me hereby decides that Markh will get tha next hint with 3 days advantage and a special secret clue only fer hims, cos he didst all n all a great job.
Just gimme a sec to scoop out the next hint in the kipper barrel, erm arghh...

 

[markh]

Blimey! There be more? :wacko:

mmh how ye actually call that symbol?
Remember the king ye has to name had that symbol engraveth on his ring.

methinks me missed that clue about the blimey ring... in me research ol' Solomon was discovered but set aside briefly...

 

[JellyJoe]

Yep, there's more to tha final treasure me lads. But me still cannot finds ye map, where d'hell did me puts it?
Ye probably has to wait till tha end of easter, by tha thousand keel kisses!

 

[JellyJoe]

There ya go with a quick explanation o' tha clues in ye last mappe:

Portrait 1.
A) Eadweard the eldest who lasteth so little killeth on the spot ---> Edward the Martyr killed in Corfe Castle;
B) ye ancient time calendar ---> Stonehenge;
c) Avalon's waters kept in a mug ---> Glastonbury Tor.

What portrait is this?

Portrait 2.
D) Our Lady o' the monks ---> Notre Dame, Paris;
E) tha mountain o' sand ---> Dune du Pilat;
F) walls pointing at God sittin on tunnels o' magic occult ---> Turin (also known as the "city of magic and occult", Italy).

What portrait is this?

Mating o' tha two portraits:

After tha mating o' the two portraits ye gets a symbol calleth "the Seal o' Solomon", and that be the king!
Very good research by Markh here, by tha thousand thunders.
9p kinda stole tha answer which me has to admits be appropriate fer a pirate.

Coming soon tha new map with a new riddle fer every pirate interested!
