First of all, this is chapter 2 of this series i'm making here is the link read that thread before this one or it won't make sense.
Chapter 2. The Cursed Beast
This talks about the megaladon guarding the new island i've called "Forgotten Cove" and why it's bound to the edge of the devil's shroud.
In the lore, there is a tale of how the pirate lord and his crew were celebrating a day of plunder and glory at a outpost, when a kraken attacked. This kraken was so strong, could not defeat it. Their boat flipped on it's side with the kraken's mouth below where they all should fall to their doom. And they did. Ramsay was hanging on for his life to the ship and asked one of his crewmates, Rathbone to help him up. Rathbone was greedy and addicted to gold, (Ramsay at this point has all the keys to chests tied around his necklace) Rathbone grabs Ramsay's keys and flees the scene.
Rathbone somehow made his way to tribute peak (not in the shroud yet) and eventually became the gold haorder.
--From here on it's lore i've made up--
Ramsay did become a ghost, and sought revenge on Rathbone. He (as the pirate lord) took his most faithful crew and made it to tribute peak. They lost the battle with The Gold Hoarder. But, because Rathbone's mind was so fogged with this skeleton curse he does not realise Ramsay was a ghost. (Ramsay does not fight and mearly observes the battle) Ramsay's crew was injured and unable to fight so Rathbone leaps for Ramsay and with a enchanted dagger stabs him 1,2,3,4 times in the back. Ramsay and his crew sailed back to what we now know as galleon's grave outpost where their ship came to rest.
As the pirate lord, Ramsay sent all kinds of horrible creatures to destroy Tribute Peak and destroy the gold hoarder, krakens, giant birds, swarms of sharks. but none of them made it through the shroud ( by this time tribute peak is just about surrounded by the shroud) except one. A single megaladon, more dangerous and blood-curling than all the rest.
This megaladon made it, but it didn't stay long. Ramsay underestimated the Gold Hoarder's power and cursed this megaladon to leave him alone and banished it to the furthest side of the map (the corner South of the shores of plenty) and it was never allowed to leave this area.
Ramsay found this megaladon whilst in a storm around shark bait cove, it attacked his ship and ate his captain's cabin clean off. (This explains how it has the message in a bottle)
As for gameplay, you will need to search the deep depths of the South of shark bait cove for this lost shipwreck and Ramsay back his keys. (whilst the megaladon was at Tribute Peak it ate a certain shipwreck that was lying there thinking it was the gold hoarder's) You also start this chapter with Ramsay.
--End of chapter 2--
