The Quest for the Legendary Viking Sword

Long after the Battle of Largs, the infamous pirate Laird Langshanks stumbled upon a Viking sword from the historic fight while burying his ill-gotten gains. With the blade by his side, Laird set sail for the west, but eventually gave up his buccaneering ways to settle on a lovely island. However, he kept the sword as a reminder of his past. Now, the town of Largs has discovered the theft and wants the sword back. The only problem is, no one knows where the ex-pirate hid it for safekeeping. All we have is a weathered map and a set of clues salvaged from Laird's old cabin. The Exploration Society is seeking the help of ace Adventurers to follow the clues and pinpoint the site of the Viking sword. Are YOU brave enough to take on this quest?
