The day started just as it usually did in the town of Wrathlake; the same shops opened, the same people shouted out their morning greetings as they trudged along the dusty path, and the same carriages rumbled down the tracks. The only thing different was a single fluttering sheet of paper positioned just outside of the general store. It wasn't in the usual place of the wanted posters, so it couldn't have been one of them - instead, it read:
MISSING : twelve men and counting. Treasure hunters - last seen leaving Wrathlake nine days ago. Families worried. REWARD: $130
Now, Wrathlake is not a particularly literate place - so many locals could be seen squinting and mouthing the words printed in large black letters on the peice of paper alongside twelve drawings of the missing treasure hunters. Missing people were not uncommon, but twelve was unheard of. Could this have to do with the famous lost riches of Wrathlake? One things for sure: it was drawing quite a crowd.
