The mission: Your story in Curtea de Argeș

 In the heart of medieval Wallachia, a noble ruler known as Negru-Vodă, sought to erect a grand monastery on the banks of the Argeș River. 

To bring this ambitious dream to life, he gathered nine of the greatest craftsmen from the land, led by the master builder Manole. 

However, their efforts were thwarted by a mysterious force. Each night, as darkness cloaked the land, the walls they had painstakingly raised by day would crumble to the ground, as if erased by an unseen hand.

Interesantă ideea și traseul, dar unele locații au fost dificil de găsit și unele răspunsuri dificil de găsit.
