You retreat quietly, leaving the cursed treasure behind. The ghostly figure watches silently as you abandon the chamber, its laughter fading into the darkness behind you. Your decision to avoid a confrontation with the vengeful spirit leaves a sense of unease lingering in the air.
Carefully disarming the trap and evading the curse, you proceed deeper into the cave, wary of what other dangers may lie ahead on this treacherous path guided by Leopold's presence.
As you navigate through the winding tunnels, you stumble upon a hidden alcove illuminated by a flickering torch. In the dim light, you see a shadowy figure standing before an ancient map spread out on a makeshift table. The pirate introduces himself as Girault, a seasoned navigator known for his uncanny ability to chart uncharted waters.
