I see the image of a skeleton wearing a hat and laying on top of mass amount of treasure in an isolated place.

Here is my story on the image.

Okwa Village became a very popular village as a result of the myths which was spread around over years. Three ambitious young friends grew up hearing the story of how many great men attempt to visit the ancient palace which was believed to house treasures that can not be counted. The ancient palace is believed to have been invaded by the gods of Okwa village as a result of the atrocities committed by their fore fathers. As a result, the people of Okwa had to vacate the area especially the palace and move to another settlement.

The palace had been know in the ancient days as the Palace of Treasures. Severally Invaders of foreign countries had attempted to escavate the treasures. Often times, strange things would happen preventing them from accessing the treasures. It was believed that the gods who occupy the palace would only grant the son of the soil access to the treasures.

Yigo, Nina and Medi the three friends often discussed about the treasures until when Medi who happened to be the active one brought the idea of planning to access the treasure. Unknown to the other two, Medi had plans to be the most richest man.

Through the combine efforts of the trio, they came up with a plan after serious planning and consultation.

When they came up with a successful plan, Medi decided to be proactive and launched the place days before the initial agreement of the trio.

Medi prepared and made the move. It was a though journey because it was not easy to navigate through the safest route alone. Tired and exhausted he found his way into the cave but sadly, exhausted. Full with excitement, he went will all enthusiasm and landed on the treasure. Sadly for him, the gods which had occupied the palace didn't take it likely with those who act out of malice and bad faith. Because of his selfish desire, his betrayal, the gods made him stock to the treasures till his passing away.

The other two didn't find their friend and so it frustrated their plan. After many years, they decide to initiate the plan and they just found out that Medi went through their back upon discovering the cloth and hat on the skeleton belongs to Medi.
