@do777 your story is nicely set up with a good intro and setting. The discovery of the treasure chest brings intrigue and rising excitement. It is well written but the rising arc seems to fall flat quite suddenly with the inexplicable disappearance of the chest and sudden end to the story! It leaves the reader wanting a more satisfactory conclusion.
