The Father's Riddle and Letter

  • Riddle -

    Discovery Ridge was the location. So I can imagine the first step of the riddle was:

    On Discovery Ridge a sight to behold, wonders of a tale untold (the exact words for the step aren't revealed in the comic, so I took the first step for any Discovery Ridge riddle)

    Follow the path if ye be brave, to a place where pirates rest. This matey you're too late to save, but he can lead you to the chest.

    In the sight of the God of Fishes, in the mirror made for wishes, hold me through the looking glass, revealing the treasure's path.

    Five paces south east (the exact words for this step aren't directly said in the comic besides how many paces)

    Letter -

    Dearest Lesedi and DeMarco,

    I fear that the life I live now is such that I'll not be returning to you and your mother. The complications are too great.

    But I hope that doesn't mean I'll not see you again.

    To reach where I now reside, you'll need to become legendary pirates.

    The contents of this chest will help you get started, but only if you've both made it here together.

    The key to this chest is a shared drink. Two tankards. Two siblings.


    This is the riddle and letter the father of Lesedi and DeMarco Singh that he left for them in the comics. It is revealed in the second issue that the father is The Pirate Lord. You can find the different parts of the riddle across issues #2-4

  • Is this in game riddles you find in books that lead you to treasure?

  • @wipe-nd-clean This riddle only appears in the comic and I would imagine you don't find any treasure if you try to complete the riddle. However you can get riddles from Mysterious Journals in the game, but you have to find them ;)

  • Have you tried yet? It'd be awesome if Rare actually put treasure there.
    Sony Santa Monica studios did something like this where they put a riddle in the world map that comes with the God of War collectors edition, if you follow the riddle that's inscribed on the map (in runes) you'll actually find an item.

    I'm at work right now but I'd love for someone to check if this riddle has merrit.

  • @hynieth I have taken a picture of it so I'm trying it tonight!

  • @d42striker

    Interesting! Thanks for taking the time to share all the information, it'd be fantastic if there was treasure in game to find at the end!

  • @d42striker sagte in The Father's Riddle and Letter:

  • @hynieth I'm trying later today, the geography is different than how it is in the comic... which is kind of weird

  • @katttruewalker No problem, I can't wait to test out the riddle myself

  • @coyote4711 I'll have to check it out!
