So, I know 2025 is mostly a gameplay year rather than lore, but if they do some mysteries in 2026, I have a idea.
Mystery — The Secret of The Reaper's Hideout
This adventure will start at Reaper's hideout second island without any buildings, runes will pop up in the ground and you will have to use your instruments and play the "Reaper's Flame" Shanty which is a new Shanty that's exclusive to this mystery. After all runes are revealed, a massive hidden doorway in the sand opens up, revealing a massive hidden abandoned ancient temple. As you enter, there are order of bone & blade skeletons roaming the temple, from here, you have two choices. Fight against the Order of Bone & Blade and end the adventure there. Or, ally with the Order of Bone & Blade skeletons by interacting with a Order of Bone & Blade skeleton Captain. The Skeleton Captain will inform you that they have been instructed by King Flameheart to guard the temple, as there is a weapon that could potentially be the key to harming Flameheart/ Banish him to the sea of the damned. Afterwards, You will have to fight off Pirate Legend Phantoms sent directly from The Pirate Lord as he has heard rumors. If you defend against all of the phantoms, The Skeleton Captain will return to the temple as the skeleton captain was fighting alongside you. You are now able to go talk to the Servant of The Flame to end the adventure. The Servant of The Flame will reveal the weapon as the Cutlass of the Ancient Warrior.
Two commendations and titles in the mystery bilge rat tab, and a unique cosmetic.
