Arthur’s family had been in Madeley for five generations. His great-great-grandfather had worked the kilns, breathing in the soot of the Industrial Revolution. But Arthur didn’t care for the iron; he cared for what lay beneath it. Legend had it that during the height of the Victorian era, a wealthy merchant—fleeing a scandal that would have ruined the town’s budding reputation—had cast a heavy iron chest into the deepest part of the bog.
With a grunt, he hauled it toward the bank. Elara ran over, her skepticism vanishing as she helped him pull the sodden weight onto the grass. Using a rusted pocketknife, Arthur sliced through the leather.
"It’s just a story, Artie," his sister, Elara, would say, her boots crunching on the dry grass nearby. "The only thing in that bog is rust and old tires."
