Summary
In this week's Story Quest, we head to the heart of Edinburgh, where a math-themed superhero frog helps a frustrated boy named Aaron solve a series of ancient numerical riddles hidden within the castle walls.
By calculating historical dates, counting towers, and squaring remains, the duo navigates through secret mechanisms and a hidden spiral staircase.
Deep within a secret chamber, they discover an iron-bound chest containing a mysterious mirror that promises to reveal the greatest treasure of all.
