I have one last Fun with Masquerade hunt before the main hunts are posted.
This is a totally armchair hunt, and all required answers can be found online - owning the book itself is not necessary.
Send your answer to me here on Mysterious Writings messaging.
Winner must have a US address and show proof of donation to a charity.
A correct solution will include:
-The crossword answers -What the code says -The answer to the code
I will not comment on partial answers, so please be sure to have all the information before submitting your solution.
I will answer any questions on the thread. Let me know if you feel there is an error.

I was going to post a clue this morning, but have received a correct answer. Congratulations to unicorn and Team Shadowgate!
Here is the solution to the Masquerade Crossword:
There are 15 images in the book Masquerade. Each clue tells you which image to look at for the answer.
Across: 1. 2-Mo. blocked by Jester = OCT 3. 9-His chair = PIG 5. 10-Master Riddle = POINTS 7. 8-Cat+Ram = RAT 8. 1-Common border word = AS 10. 1-Barbed word = GOLDEN 12. 3-Who's sitting pretty = MASQUERADE HARE 13. Silver being – Overheard = FAIRY (the site calls her a Nymph, but the solution calls for an F) on a Salt Marsh (her gallery) 15. 2-Hidden month = NOVEMBER 17. His wife (see #13) = ELEYNE (Kit Williams' wife) 18. 10-A business = LLEVY 19. 6-I'm blushing = ROSE 20. 4-PICK A______ = COLOUR 21. 14-I AM_______ = HYDROGEN
Down: 2. 6-Barbed word = CHILD 4. 5-Drow debrab = THGIL (LIGHT backwards) 6. 12-Puppet Master = ISAAC (Newton) 7. 8-360 x 4 = ROUND 9. 7-Who to tail = ME 11. 3-Barbed/Red/Master = SUN/ RISE/ OVER 14. Sunday clue – up on top = REINDEER 16. 8-All Animals are_________ = EQUAL
Once the crossword has been solved, take each word and the letter of that word. If you have all the answers correct, you will get:
HIS FINAL CLUE ACROSTIC
Kit Williams' final clue was an acrostic using the first letter of each Master Riddle word or phrase = CLOSE BY AMPTHILL
Most of these answers can be found in the book Masquerade, or online at: bunnyears.net/kitwilliams/
Thanks everyone!
Now to the countdown to the main hunts! Only four days until all 7 hunts will be posted. Sharpen those pencils and be sure to have your donations in - and let the fun begin!
*Don't forget, Samantha's mini hunt is still waiting to be solved!
