A Pirate’s Message
By: Brian Lin

My name is Flamengo Jake Ravenclaw. And if you are reading this message, it means I am already dead. I’m writing this because I have hidden my treasure on Diamond Island and if you are lucky, you can follow my map and instructions and maybe good fortune will befall on you, but be careful this journey won’t be an easy one. First let me tell you about myself so that my legacy lives on.
Now I am going to tell about myself. My name is Flamengo Jake Ravenclaw. I am mean and scary. Nobody can fight me because I’m too strong. My father, Rake de Santos Ravenclaw, is the captain of the pirate crew called Flamengo. I think this is how I got my name.
Diamond Island is located on the north side of Germany. Now I’ll tell you the latitude and longitude location. 54.5167° N, 8.6369° E. The island is rare, but if you are reading this, it means the island is waiting for you to go there and dig out the treasure. However, this search for the treasure is not only easy, it is difficult and hard. It lies between your life… Dead or Alive.
There are many legends about Diamond Island and let me tell you, they are true. First of all in the forest, there is a old woman. She is nice and kind. She asked me to help her get a cup of water, well, that time I was a kind young kid. I did everything she said. After a day, she gave me a basket of eggs. The old woman told me to throw them behind my shoulders on my way home. I did what she told me. And I realized that the talking eggs were diamonds inside. I got more eggs with diamond inside because the woman said so.
If you are brave enough to try and find my buried treasure you will not be disappointed. My treasure is funny, but be sure not to laugh at anything you see. If you disobeyed my conditions, you will regret what you find after all. My treasure is from the famous science lab of Germany. It was invented by Karl Benz. The German inventor. After I become older, I became more and more evil. I tried to steal the eggs, and of course, they chased me. On my ship, I putted the eggs in a golden treasure box. And I arrived at a island that did not exists on the map. I buried the treasure. No one knows about it. This message is left for you… the trail is is followed by my treasure instructions. The soldiers who were chasing me was furious. They killed me… good luck…

You can follow my map trail and read my map instructions, but be careful about the measurements. 1 centimeter wrong, it would not leads to the treasure. Also, a reminder, to find my treasure, you must have patience.
Good luck and watch out for the river that is rushing water out when you stop by the east bay of Diamond Island.

Sincerely,
Flamengo Jake Ravenclaw
