"A map?"
"We sailed far, through exceptionally perilous waters to find the spot. We dug and... found a carved circle of stone, bearing a single instruction."
"My patience is wearing thin..."
"Uuhh, we followed the instruction and found no bones nor treasure. We're sorry, we didn't intend to break into YOUR home."
"What was the instruction?"
"Keep digging."
In the end, the Devil granted them the greatest treasure of all - their weight in gold to leave and to never speak of the circle.

The Devil stared at the dusty pirate crew, cutlasses and shovels brandished in trembling hands, in the center of Her throne room.
She was used to pirates; many often came through Her gates. Usually they were dead.
"Explain," she commanded.
"Err..." gulped a young Aeta woman who'd volunteered with the aid of a hearty shove, "We heard of a great treasure, buried with the bones of the Captain who had acquired it all. We followed a map."
Got an OK to post this. This is a piece I did a while ago for @/GameOnAnthology zine on twitter!

Misty decided today to prove what a good hunter she is.
Usually she does this by carrying around one of her catnip toys in her mouth and yowling until someone comes to see what is up, whereupon she proudly puts the toy down to show it off and get praise.
Today she did this with a small piece of meat that was placed in her treat bowl about twenty minutes beforehand...
I love this daft lump of cat ;w; she's so good
And
