The young archaeologist listened to the witch and decided to become a real warrior to find the treasure.
He met with many difficulties on his journey. He needed to overcome the cold, hunger, and fear to find the treasure.
In the end, he found the treasure, but he also paid a heavy price. He lost his family and friends just to find that mysterious tomb.
