Chapter 48 - It might be fake

Allen moved away from the trio and found a secluded spot beside the lakefront.

"It must be somewhere around here." Allen muttered in a low voice while scanning the lake carefully.

While muttering, he gently brought out a thick sheepskin from his chest pocket and tried to find the location marked on the map.

The location that was marked, definitely led to this lake right in front of him, but where was the treasure.

"Where shadows fall, seek the deep,

Face the sun, and secrets keep.

Thrice-marked stone, beneath the wave,

Treasure lies, in watery cave."

Allen read word by word, the puzzle written at the end of the sheepskin.

But there was no shadow as the sun was still not high up in the sky, he decided to wait till afternoon, then try again.

It might also be fake as this wasn't the only sheepskin map that he found in his ancestral home.
