Hi folks! I’m glad you saw our messages, we were beginning to get little desperate. Professor Ouroboros, the chair of the Oriental Studies of the Near East Department, has been found dead. The great man, a brilliant man, a potentially crazy man left us a frankly absurd array of notes, and we can’t seem to make heads or tails of them. It’s chaos trying to sort through it all and we need smart people like you to help us uncover their secrets. The little we could figure out tells us he found it! The cave of treasures from the Ali Baba and the 40 Thieves, straight out of One Thousand and One Nights. But we believe he changed the password. But…with your help, we can figure out the new phrase and it will be the discovery of the century!

We know a few things:

-We need four elements, hidden within four puzzles Professor Ouroboros designed for his successors.

-We know he wasn’t one for order, and that he’s left bits and pieces across various tables and some of it might be used more than once

Oh, and he likes riddles so here’s one to get you started

A new phrase I’ve made to hide the horde
Combine your knowledge to find the reward
Two paths you might take, one of muscle one of mind
Two chances to succeed, I must remind

Now Open Sesame (Redux)!
