ESCAPE LOUISBOURG; THE SIREN’S CURSE
La Sirène and her crew, with a letter of Marque in hand from the King of France, set sail on a noble journey to find a legendary treasure trove of jewels and gold, said to bring wealth and good fortune to the kingdom who commands it.
A year later the ship sails into the Louisbourg harbour, empty. With not a soul left aboard the vessel, La Sirène was appropriately diagnosed as a Ghost Ship. Desperate to know what happened and where the treasure lies, Louisbourg’s Governor has hired teams of investigators to solve the mystery; with a reward for those successful in cracking the case. The Governor suspects powerful and mystical forces at play, beware; those who have not discovered the truth in 60 minutes have… disappeared.
The Ghost Ship (@ 6pm) ; A missing captain, a lost crew. Can you find the ship’s log? Surely it will have all the answers.
The Fool’s Gold (@ 6pm); A fool, a betrayal, and a very angry and powerful sea creature. Can you find the precious possession that was stolen, and see it safely returned?
Bottle of Souls (@ 7:30pm); A magical glowing bottle, faint voices; the story continues to unravel. Can you undo the curse and free the innocent caught in the crossfire?
Lost Treasure (@ 7:30pm); A treasure, a map, and some clues are all that remains; Can you find the legendary fortune that started it all?
