For though ye may have unearthed the original twelve chests that we did tell ye of, ye still haven't grabbed hold of the biggest treasure of all! Legend has it that the twelve buccaneers what buried their treasure chests here, also buried a thirteenth chest with twelve locks, and containing a share of each of the pirates’ richest loot!

Whisper to LongJohn in the
tower south of Turtle Landing
(that's what we call “ground
zero”, or 0n 0w in A’tuin) for
the background story behind
the new treasure hunt.
Your mission is to find the
Twelve Lock Box and
the twelve keys to unlock
it, hidden around the world of A’tuin.
Ask LongJohn for hints regarding
the locations of keys.
(The keys are quite small,
but they will always be hidden around some larger object.)
The Ruby Key
(thanks for Young Phalpha for the key model)
Click on a key to pick it
up. LongJohn's parrot, Polly, will be nearby and
will tell you when you successfully
get a key.
You may not be able to pick
up some keys right away;
there may be a puzzle you
have to solve in order to get them.
Look around the area to see
if there's anything there that might help you.
To use the keys, you must
first find the Twelve Lock Box.
LongJohn will give you a
clue if you ask him about the box.
When you find some keys,
return to the lock box and click on it.
LongJohn will acknowledge
the keys that you found and
tell you which keys you still
need to find.
The first three people to find all the keys will win a prize!

Now maybe all you swabbies was a-thinkin’ that this here world of A’tuin were always just as quiet an’ peaceful-like as ye’r seein’ it today—but ye’d be wrong there, me lads’n’lasses! For not too very long ago there was more’n a few wild an’ bloodthirsty buccaneers what sailed these very waters! Most of the notorious ones that ye’ve heard tell of, in fact, did come here to bury their treasures on and about these remote isles...
Hidden somewhere in A’tuin are twelve treasure chests, like the one in the picture above, each belonging to one of the twelve infamous pirates listed below. If you can find all twelve chests, tell us and you’ll have your name displayed on the list of successful treasure-hunters in A’tuin and win a pair of pirate avatars to use in your own world!
