Chance encounter at the governor's doorway

Sheyan understood the few tasks he had to accomplish upon arriving here.

Firstly, to sell off the smuggled goods from Tortuga. This would be a tremendously abundant transaction, minimally increasing the liquidity of this funds by 20,000 guineas.

Next was to survey the governor’s residence. Even though lady Elizabeth’s gold medallion wouldn’t be easily obtainable, it was still worth a try. A point to note – As the curse of the Aztec Gold adhered onto the original gold coins within the chest, only the individual who retrieved a coin from the chest would be inflicted with the curse. As such, since Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann didn’t personally retrieve the gold coin from the chest, but it was merely transferred into their hands, they weren’t affected by the curse.
