Oak Island is an island in Lunenburg County on the south shore of Nova Scotia, Canada. It is noted as the location of the "Money Pit" and for over 200 years has attracted treasure hunters.[1]
Kidd's Treasure
Captain Kidd, a Scottish pirate, got hold of the Shard of Eden at some point, a ring-like Piece of Eden that served as a personal shield for the wearer, and later hid it on Oak Island to keep it safe from falling in Templar hands. He also created a map providing clues to the Shard's location, and divided it among four of his former crew members. In 1777 the Assassin Ratonhnhaké:ton sailed to Oak Island and located the Shard with the help of the maps left by Kidd.[2]
The main landmarks of the island's treasure location included an eagle's nest, a burnt tree, a home of wolves, a strangely shaped rock, the center hiding point of Kidd's treasure, and a cadre of invincible, quicksilver-fast wolves which will rip out your throat before you even realize the game has ignored the fact that you pressed X. Hidden beneath the hard stone was a series of tunnels beneath the island that held the Shard and strange green rocks throughout it.
