In this guide, Sheriff Dann shows you where to find the Forbidden Tomes on the island, Cannon Cove.

This island is named after a giant central peak that resembles a cannon, which has a cave entrance on its south side. There is a vertical opening that extends past the cave roof, where above sits a Skeleton Throne. At the tip of the peak sits a beacon that can be lit for the Festival of the Damned.

Here’s the Gold Hoarder riddle we got:

First you’ll want to locate the big cave entrance to go where light is dim. Head to the south side of the cave to find the entrance into the dark.
