While imprisoned, he meets the Abbรฉ Faria, a fellow prisoner whom everyone believes to be mad. The Abbรฉ tells Edmond of a fantastic treasure hidden away on a tiny island, that only he knows the location of. After many years in prison, the old Abbรฉ dies, and Edmond escapes disguised as the dead body. Now free, Edmond must find the treasure the Abbรฉ told him of, so he can use the new-found wealth to exact revenge on those who have wronged him.
