Comet Hunter's Treasure (I)

To Treasure Hunters: (I)

Ha! You are fooled!
There is no "treasure" at all.
The only reward is the four scrawls by me hidden in this room. You must have recognized it. Yes, there's lord Herta's handwriting as well. Surprise, eh?
If you are a junior who worries all day to impress your boss, take a deep breath! No good if you have a heart attack now.
If you are one of those playful young fellows, I'd suggest you take them, go back to them when you find life miserable and have a good laugh when you are not busy doing your research in a dark corner of the tower.

Comet Hunter's Treasure (II)

To Treasure Hunters: (II)

Right, if you are reading this, you've probably listened to me. That means you always follow through with what you started.
I have to admit, it would hurt my reputation had I asked you to go through so much trouble just for nothing.
After all, I can't foresee to whom this letter will go so many Amber Eras later.
There is a chance, however unlikely it may be, that you are a future defender of my reputation, someone worthy of my legacy.
Wouldn't want to accidentally put you under friendly fire, would I?
Hm, so be it. It's time that I bring forward the real treasure.

Comet Hunter's Treasure (III)

To Treasure Hunters: (III)

Have you tried a type of soda named "Kapo-Kali"?
It was once the signature of the space station, extremely popular in the Southern Orion system.
Sorry to brag, but I'm indeed the creator of the famous Astro Rod and Cosmos Guide.
And undoubtedly, "Kapo-Kali" is also my creation.
The IPC offered me five million credits for the recipe and I turned them down.
Wen Huairen from the Herta Department of Implement Arts attempted (and failed) to steal it 33 times, all resulting in him getting a good smack from me.
I will now make the recipe public...
Five million's worth! See you in the next letter.

Yes, you are seeing it right. Above is the secret recipe of Kapo-Kali.
I swear on my Mom's life that it's authentic.
If you are one of us, you'll know how to decrypt it.
Got a tip for you: A specific method of autoradiography is required to reveal the text.
