The narrative unfolds in the year three thousand and ten, before the era of artistry in superconductivity had dawned.
A fervent desire for gold arose due to their scarcity for the making of exotic machines known as smartphones.
To protect these precious treasures from thieving hands, a cunning churchwarden summoned a creature's in the form of a treasure chest, equipped with sharp teeth and a wide tongue.
Thus, the number of thieves diminished, yet deceptions where comrades were deliberately sacrificed to occult practices for the promise of wealth increased rapidly, leading to the enactment of strict bans against such dark arts, harboring them, and their use.
As a result, these enchanted beings were abandoned unlawfully.
The sovereign's justices are now overwhelmed with complaints from children harmed by tampering with these cursed troves, mistakenly taken for toys.
At the same time, wicked merchants, masquerading as mourners or executors, steal family heirlooms and goods.
In reckoning with these manifold marvels, the sovereign power hath brought forth a new breed of enchantment in the form of the cephalopod, which assumes human guise having devoured the accursed strongboxes.
This summoned spirit doth desire to sup noodles with the souls that venture near.
The ethereal strings, crafted from the unfathomable, provide scant sustenance and bear no influence upon the healthful vigor.
Yet, through magical incantations, they stir the essence of those who yearn for recognition from the multitude, and shackle the spirit to the 'Specter of the Nether Scroll.'
The impulse to witness one's own image in the likeness of such a creature and to launch it into the celestial web doth call out as the siren's enthralling melody.
