The co-ordinates shown on the cache page will take you to a place on the North Inch at Perth. From here you can see the grounds of the Palace of Scone. The Stone of Scone, also called the Stone of Destiny, is said to be the ancient crowning stone of Scotland’s kings. It has a long, troubled and mysterious history. Is the Stone which is now in Edinburgh Castle and which was long kept at Westminster the real Stone? Or was Edward I duped by the monks of Scone Abbey in 1296? If this is not the true Stone, then where is the genuine article?
Legend says that in each generation, some people are chosen to protect the secret of the true Stone of Destiny. They are known as the Moon-Runners or Moon-Runers. It is their duty to keep the true Stone safe, moving it to a new hiding place whenever it is threatened. They pass on their secret knowledge through the use of ancient runes.
Once you arrive at the starting point, several other zones will become visible on your Wherigo map. Each zone represents a different time and place. You can visit the zones in any order you like. In each zone you will learn something more and you will also find a rune to add to your inventory.
When you have all the runes you will be able to decode a message. And all may – or may not - be revealed……
