THE LAST HUNT

“It’s not her fault! I screwed up, after leaving everything behind I just couldn’t focus on anything else. It always felt like there was a void in my heart, and no matter how much I tried I just couldn’t let go of my past. The only way I could do that was whenever I got shit-faced drunk! Nobody could live with me, but she tried. And I guess I deserved what I got.

“Okay come on, don’t start sobbing now. Look, what happened, happened. Nothing can change that, but you still got time! You can turn your life around John, by taking this job you can fulfil that void and purposelessness in your life!” replies Sam. “Yeah, maybe you’re right.” says John in a defeated voice. “THEN IT’S FINAL! We are taking the job!” says Sam. “Well okay hold on, first tell me what “treasure” are we chasing after?” asks John.

“Right... So there is this ancient relic which belonged to Alexander the first. He was the ruler of the ancient kingdom of Macedon, and he used to keep this relic very close to him at all times. It was believed that this relic helped him take over the Kingdom of Macedon in the first place. So given it’s stature, the relic obviously had a legendary reputation. Many kings, warriors and merchants from around the globe attempted to steal it, but all of them failed. Later, after Alexander’s death, he was succeeded by his eldest son, Alcetas the second. Alcetas hid this precious relic within a tomb of macedon, and it was never to be found again.” Sam narrates. “Sooo, how are we finding it then?” John asks. “Well I got us a map of where the said tomb is” says Sam.
