I'm offering an alternative location for Image 3/Verse 11. I am totally confident in this location and will be able to answer any question to verify it's validity. After working on all 9 remaining puzzles, I have learned much and noticed some patterns. A common pattern is that the lower left quadrant of the image is either a map or has an abstract image to let you know where to begin your search, or both. I will attempt to attach a diagram showing exactly that, for Image 3. Once you look back at the entire image, the small map may not apply the same way. For instance in this image the small map has north at the bottom where the entire image has north at the top. Checkout Grand Army Plaza and compare it to the window in the image. The gold knight is an abstract compilation of the Sherman statue with his horse and an angel. Look it over and let me know what you guys think.

Now that you are in front of the Atlas statue on 5th Avenue in New York City. If you look across the street you'll see St. Patrick's Cathedral. You will turn left and proceed North down the sidewalk (In December ride the man of Oz)December(12th month,12 o'clock) is North using the face of a clock as a compass. Man of Oz, Sidewalk, yellow brick road. (Pass two friends of octave)Octave is a religious celebration, you will pass two churches on your way to the land near the window. Of course you could have just slid down the string that's pinned to your destination.

By now you should be standing on the sidewalk beside the land near the window(Pulitzer Fountain Square), facing 59th street(aka Central Park South). There's a road that leads to dark forest, that's Central Park South. Where white is in color, if you look down at the road the crosswalks are all painted in bright white stripes.

Now we have to look at the maps. This is what really ties down the location. After circle and square, I assume Priess means the fountain and the square in front of it. It really doesn't matter because I did find the maps. The maps are both sides of the Grand Army Plaza (the sidewalk areas), basically the things hanging off, or attached to the arms of the gold knight. Look for the clock hanging from his left hand (right side of the image) first. In the overall image 5th Avenue is on the right side and is the crack running down the side of the window. When you cross the crack, you have moved from one sidewalk to the other. Look for the clock on the east side of 5th Avenue approximately where it is in the image. Then look for the two items protruding from his right wrist (left side in the image). The item that resembles a knife below his wrist, look high for that. There are sidewalks running out each side of the plaza approximately where his arms are in the image. The items you are looking for will be above or below those sidewalks like they are on his arms. The bells on the right of the image are not actually bells, pay attention to the shape of the striker hanging from the bells. Even the bubbles in the image can be found in the real world. One bubble is larger than the others and there is reason for that, which you may discover. If you find any of these corroborating images, please let me know. The clock is on the right in the photo, The Sherman statue is visible on the left. This is exactly where the clock is depicted in the image. The light above his right wrist. Again exactly where it is depicted. Attachments:

Again exactly where it is depicted. A couple more of the items that define the area. Again always think abstractly. The knife looking object below his right wrist. The large bell on the right of the image. look close at the base and the top.

I assume you are still standing on the sidewalk at the corner of 5th Avenue and Central Park South. You are looking across toward Grand Army Plaza. I'm sure by now you are wondering where We're going to find Mica and Driftwood at this location. First, in July and August there's a path that beckons. If you look over your left shoulder in the direction of around 7 to 8 o'clock (july and August on the clock compass), you'll see the square in front of Pulitzer Fountain. Go to the square and look North and you'll see the path to the Sherman Statue. That's where you'll find Mica and Driftwood. Mica is is found in many types of rocks including Granite, Marble, and Limestone, the most common stones used in statues, or the bases of statues. Driftwood is famous Stud horse from the early 1900's. I think Priess used that name to let us know he was talking about the horse on the statue. Driftwood is well known so not hard to look him up. So there you are, that's my interpretation of Image 3/Verse 11. I hope I have convinced you because to me it's all there in full color. I'd hate to see anyone trying to solve the puzzle and be wasting their time in the wrong city.
If I have convinced you, the next clue tells you where the casque is located. I'll leave it to you to figure that out. Happy Hunting!

I didn't mention it earlier because i did not think it would be necessary but the approximate latitude and longitude of New York city can be found in image 3. There is a 75 in the lower left corner, a 4 to the left of atlas, and a 3 to the right of the large bell looking object. 75 & 43 is pretty darn close.

My bad, the 75 is in the lower right corner not all the way to the bottom. I thought I learned left and right a long time ago, oh well.

Hi guys, by now I'm sure many of you have seen this post. Is anyone still seriously considering Roanoke, NC as the location for this image? If so, I would love to here the reasons that you are. We have a choice to follow the unknown leader who chose Roanoke or lead the followers. If you can follow my lead on this being in New York based on the information I had laid before you, which I think is pretty solid, let's upset the apple cart an find the casque that's now in New York City, which actually has been there all along. Has anyone followed the final clues to locate the casque at this location?

Would you believe me if I told you that Image 3 was neither Roanoke or New York, but actually Kill Devil Hills, NC?
