The Opening

“You already hold two pieces of a treasure map, but the trail ends here, on an island with two small towns and a guarded secret. The next piece is somewhere onshore, and every day you wait gives rivals time to find it first. If you want the rest of the route, you will have to choose where to look, who to trust, and how much of the island's peace you are willing to disturb.”

— Hook · retrieve

Set the Scene

The dockmaster spreads your two torn map pieces across a salt-stained table and taps a blank stretch of sea where the route breaks off. "The next piece is on the island ahead," she says, "and the island has two towns that do not agree on much except that strangers ask too many questions."

Rumours

d3 · table
  1. 01
    The east town pays in fresh fish and silence, but only to people who never ask about the old cove.
  2. 02
    The west town's shrine keeper knows where the tide opens the cliffs at low water.
  3. 03
    A wreck offshore still rings its bell when storms come in, even though no ship anchors there anymore.
Stakes

If the party fails, the treasure route stalls, rival seekers gain ground, and the island's peace can crack into an ugly local dispute.

Ticking Clock·The next low tide ends in one day, and after that the sea cave will be sealed for a week.

Background Lore

Two torn map fragments point toward a chain of sea routes older than the current harbor kingdoms. The next fragment is said to be hidden on an island with two competing towns, each built around a different shore and a different understanding of what the island owes the sea.

What the World Knows

The party must travel to a nearby island with two small towns to recover the next piece of a treasure map. The townsfolk do not know about the map, but rumors of a hidden cache and hostile sea routes make the search uneasy. The party must follow clues, navigate local tensions, and outpace rivals to find the fragment first.
