X marks the Spirit

There is a quest my friend
there is a quest that takes more than a keen-wooded ship
and stern rigging
but there is a quest
an adventure that requires an adventurer
like yourself eh?
Bah! a lie! For no man knows adventure before this quest
only after can you be ready.
But it’s out there
and you know exactly what
because you know
that there is a quest
what you do not know
is how I do
and I can tell you
that I have taken on this mission
and ventured into where wayward pirates
fear
and this is how I know.
But I am old
and I have yet to spend my treasure
I believe I will hand the first of it to you
so here
take this bearing
And keep this scroll
but remember
X marks the spot
