EXPLORER TALES
Explorer tales are stories that you hear from Boone at his campfire throughout Frontiersmen camps in the Frontier. They are short missions, that seem to cover myths that society has passed on for years. The missions themselves are pretty straight forward. Below just covers the outlining of the tales that Boone will tell you.
The Boy Who Cried Wolf
A pair of our more ambitious Adventurer's set out a few weeks back and have yet to return. Find out what befell our friends.
The Sasquatch
It stands upright, as a man, but its whole body is covered in a thick pelt. Its gait is slow and lurching Ive seen it with my own two eyes. It's clever, always at a distance or with something between us- like it knows where I'm gunna be before i get there. Things go missing where it goes, that much is certain. All manner of trinket. Took a man's prize buck antlers clear of his cabin wall. Takes kills outta traps too, wrenchin'em open with his big mitts. Some body should find it and bring back its head for the world to see.
The Haunted Lighthouse
I'd been out in the puckerbrush for six weeks. Game was scarce in the area and my belly needed fillin' so a broke for the coast and some crab or lobster from the tide pools. That's when I saw it. A lighthouse said to have been abandoned years ago, but there it was fires a burnin'. Then the sound happened. A moaning in the wind. My heart crept up my throat so high I could taste it. Just then a ten point buck startled and I took after it. Got the buck but never went back to the lighthouse. Spirits in there I wager. I'd challange any man to venture nearby.
The Headless Horseman
I've never seen him myself but I've heard the stories from here to Kentucky. A German mercenary-Hessians they call ' em- was fighting a battle when a cannonball took his head clean off. His whole battalion was routed and they lost the encounter. But the lad didn't die. He's been wandering the bush on horseback around the battlefield ever since, searching for his head, chasin' innocents when he sees 'em, taking their domes for his own. He wears a pumpkin head for now, until he finds what he's looking for. Like I said, I haven't seen 'em, but i have see the bodies he leaves lying about, headless and grotesque. God rest their souls.
The American Sea monster
I'm not one for sailing but I know it's out there. Some call it a kraken, others just a sea monster. They say it's fifty feet long if it's an inch and it rolls ships for sport. You won't find me out on the high sea searching for the beast, that's a guarantee I can give you, but it's a riddle that needs solving.
After this go to the Frontier mission icons near where you heard this conversation to eavesdrop on other conversations about the monster. All the conversations are by stationary targets so just hide nearby and listen in. After three conversations you will be directed by a green dot to a graveyard. Talk to the woman for a scene then go to the next location indicated. Look for clues in the area to solve the mystery of the Sea Monster.
THE UFO
The first time I saw the light was back in Boston. I was trading my biggest take of the season when it rose from behind Beacon Hill. Went straight up in the night sky, passed the moon. Then it was gone. I wasn't alone. Those next to me had their heads cocked the same- craned as far back as it could go- mouths agape. Couldn't tell you what it was but I can tell you it wasn't of this earth.
Go to the new Frontier Mission icon on the map and you will need to look for clues. It is on a tree so jump on the little outhouse looking building nearby and use it to jump on a tree. Climb partially up the first tree then jump from tree to tree till you get to the clue to finish the mission.
