Hitting Gold

It wasn’t until 1847 that another company took to the cursed treasure project, and that company was Truro. Their primary goal was to find a way to stop the water from rushing into the pit which was done by using drills. The drills worked relentlessly until they heard a cracking sound down below. What they drilled into were two chests of gold! But the mass of mysteries were far from being solved. When the gold was brought to the surface, there were links of gold chains that disappeared from the chests.

Understandably after finding some treasure, Truro wanted to continue digging in hopes of finding more treasure on the island. But there was another curve ball that smacked them out of nowhere. Even after building a dam to stop the water from flooding their excavation site, the beach on which they were standing was starting to fall away – it was completely artificial. Just when they thought that they were getting somewhere, a massive storm came and destroyed all their progress. Beliefs about the island’s curse were starting to arise again.
