Answer: MAZE{targaryen}

Problem Statement

Jon received a note from the Lannisters containing an encrypted message of pwmfzqqwf. Previously it had been agreed between them that the original message would have been divided into 3 equal parts and encrypted using ceasar cipher with different keys. There only clue given to him was to use his “teapot”.

Hint

Do you know the “status” of teapot?

Solution

I’m a teapot is HTTP Status Code 418. Using 4,1,8 as the 3 keys in ceaser cipher pwm becomes tar, fzq becomes gar and qwf becomes yen. Combining which it is targaryen.
