The Mermaid Treasure

During the 21 Seagulls expedition, Mascardi Berio ventured north to the island of Ayaton, battling hordes of mutated creatures and the undead. His crew suffered from powerful magic and curses. After the fights, Mascardi found an ancient treasure in the mermaid islands near Ayaton, consisting of gold, diamonds, and magical items. Some crew members tried to escape with loot, faced consequences. King Adam of Lothen demanded the treasure back, but Mascardi, refusing, was branded a traitor.
