Lily, Ben, and Max had always dreamed of the sea. Growing up in the bustling port town of Castor Bay, they spent their days watching ships sail out into the horizon, wondering what mysteries lay beyond. One evening, as a storm rolled in and the streets cleared, the trio took refuge in the dusty attic of the old lighthouse keeper's cottage.

They were poking around through old chests, searching for anything that might hint at adventure, when Ben yanked open a drawer that revealed something odd.

"Look at this," he said, holding up a rolled piece of weathered parchment.

Lily unrolled it carefully, her eyes growing wide. "It's a map! And not just any map… it looks like it leads to a pirate's treasure."

Max, leaning in, traced the lines with his finger. "I've seen that island before. It's far off the coast, just past the Coral Reef."

Excitement sparked between them. Castor Bay had long whispered tales of a legendary pirate known as Captain Blackfin, whose treasure was said to be lost beneath the sea, hidden on a forgotten island. Could this be it?

“We have to follow it,” Max declared.

“Are you sure it’s real?” Ben asked, but the glint in his eye betrayed his curiosity.

“Only one way to find out,” Lily grinned.

This is the first of my pirate themed audios!

For this piece I wanted to keep the instruments to a minimum to suggest a small group of people.

As always, thanks for giving my music a try! It means a lot to me :D
