Long Shot
In theory, it was a simple enough project. The team would search the lake for the objects. Even though they would be searching the most likely locations in the lake, it was still a long shot. There was always the chance that the objects were too well hidden or that there would be no way to raise it to the surface.
Then again, there was also the possibility that the rumors and stories were just that. Perhaps there was nothing to be found. Mounting a project like this wasn’t cheap and it was important that it would pay off.
