Time flies!  Way back in August it was announced a very special Tribute Hunt for The Secret Armchair Treasure Hunt by Byron Priess was in the making by John Michaels and Kit Palencar.  It would be a treasure hunt for a buried 13th casque holding a key to claim a prize worth over $2,000 dollars.  The time has come!  It is now released!  (See Image and Verse below, along with Instructions, and the Lore for the casque)

John was an active member of the treasure hunting community for The Secret, and Kit is the son of John Jude Palencar, who was the original illustrator for The Secret, which was released in 1982.  Together they have worked hard to produce an excellent 13th treasure hunt emulating the original twelve;  John working on the Verse, and Kit, an artist himself, painting the Image.  Impressive!

Just like The Secret’s first twelve buried casques, an Image and Verse, both embracing cryptic clues, will reveal the location of treasure once solved. It’s possible additional clues might even be found in the Prelude Tribute Hunt, revealing the Lore accompanying the casque, which was given a few weeks before this actual hunt’s release.

As we learned in a previous Six Questions with John Michaels and George Ward, hosts of the Shhhh Podcast at the time, John and Kit produced this hunt as a way to give back to the wonderful community which has inspired them to continue the legacy of The Secret!

Thanks to John and Kit for this exciting new hunt!

And Now:

A note from the creators:
 
This is a tribute to a great man and a great treasure hunt.  It is meant to take you back to that place of discovery and awe, a whimsical place where fairies exist with mythical creatures of a time long ago.  A fantasy land that breaches into reality with a quest, a mission to find the casque!  Although we are not providing you with the standard longitude and latitude coordinates given in the original hunt which Bryon created, the rest works in a like fashion to the original.  There are some old tricks and some new things you will have to figure out.  We’ve provided you with enough information to locate the treasure grounds.  The rest is up to you.  Only a key will get you the treasure, not a written in solution. We wish you the best of luck and we hope this Tribute brings you as much joy as hunting the original 12.
