A warning
The email was unnervingly short. The email didn’t go into detail or provide any background information about the object. It was a warning that was urgent and clear. Mark was almost begged by the previous owner to bury the mysterious artifact and conceal it, as if it had never been discovered.
Mark’s fervent request that he not tell anyone about this discovery was even more disturbing. There were no explanations or reasons given, only a clear directive to keep it hidden. Mark was even more confused by the intensity of the warning and, as he sat in his quiet home, an uneasy feeling began to settle.
