Kapitel 89: Coffin

"So the Jewel ain't mighty thar?"

Lucian's brow rose. "You don't seem surprised."

Skull shrugged and looked over the window of his office. "I 'ave hunted treasures enough in me lifetime nah t' expect anythin'."

Skull chuckled. "That makes it more excitin'. Findin' lost treasures only t' be led t' another booty. The adventure ne'er stops."

Skull faced them and placed her palms against the table. "So, let me guess ye're goin' t' bargain wit' me wit' that map?"

Lucian, Rosa, and Cecily looked at each other and nodded. 

"It might lead you to the reallocation of the lost treasure," Cecily said.

The corner of Skull's lips rose in amusement. "That only applies if I find the other pieces o' the map."

Lucian's heart thumped hard against his chest. This was their only leverage. It had to work.

Rosa folded her arms. "Well? Do you want it or not?"
