At the height of night
A dead mans chest

Some progress on the riddle?

There seem to be three phrases from the posted riddle that should help decipher the last clue

The first phrase "A pirates cove at the height of night" could seem to indicate we need to look for a pirates cove at the position of 12:00 midnight on the "Hunt" map. If this is the case, then that cove would be the round pond or the bay/inlet right next to it.

I don't know what the rest might mean yet. A Dead's men chest hidden out of sight could be the word "Life" hidden in RED LETTERS on the map - - but that seems a far stretch.

Also, not sure if it means anything, but there is at least one more Davy Jones Card clue - - placing it updside down at 45 degrees over the central river at the bottom of the map (see attachment) the tentacles align along the trail under the word "circle" and connect it to the path circle near the center bottom of the map.

Again, not sure what if anything these mean

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought the "hunt" map was just used for keywords and not to solve an island puzzle.

I like where your going with this Doug but I think its alot simpler then we think.

Plus!!! DONT FORGET!!! This isnt even a clue, the map hasen't been unlocked and this is just someones Photoshop skills at work. This island wont be unlocked till the 12th so we are racking our brains at nothing.

So what's the general collective response here? Do you guys think the light puzzle is real or not?

As I look closely at it, it's obvious that the six screen shots are simply captured during each clue line, but the background appears to be scrolling by. I'd say the artwork looks pretty consistent with what we've seen and the detail is pretty intricate.
One thing I did notice is that the flames and the smoke rising from them are static in all 6 shots.
I dunno...if it's fake this guy's really good. There were many hours put into this.
What makes me wonder is that I've seen other REAL shots online before they were unlocked.
As a puzzle, I haven't been able to make any sense out of it yet but then, if there are clickable items on the screen, we may only be seeing part of it.

What bothers me the most about the pics is the similarity to storyboard drawings of the fortuneteller's place from the movie. It makes me wonder if someone jacked (pardon the pun) those and played around in Photoshop. Counter that with the observation that the artwork is a consistant style with what we have been presented so far in game, and I just get confused.
