  1. Story.
    Hidden Treasure
    They say there is a hidden treasure in bloonashade. There were two men ploughing near a fort. The plough turned the lid of a pot of gold.
    One man saw it. He did not want to share with the other man. So he put a mark with stones where it was.
    The man went in to the dinner and when he came back there was a lot of other marks and he could not know which one he put up himself.
    They say the fairies changed it because he was so greedy.
