Description
In 1032 Tibet a farmer found a crystal sphere in a field that he was plowing. It had carvings of a strange language and four indentations. Not knowing what to do with it, he took it to a temple complex that was near-by. The legend is that the priests found that pressing one of the indentations could cure sicknesses, and pressing another released a power that laid waste to buildings. Fearing the immense power of the crystal sphere they never pressed the other two indentations. When the mongols invaded the priests feared that they would capture the crystal sphere and use it for evil. So, the sphere was taken to a hidden location high in the mountains where it has remained. But, word of it's location has leaked out and evil forces are intent on getting it. The race is on as the forces of good try to get to it first.
Just a fun picture that reminds me of Indiana Jones. Hope you enjoy it. Comments are always welcome. - Bob
