An archaeologist believes that if he can find a certain artifact, that it will lead to world peace. When he discovers a small totem related to his quest, he, like a responsible archaeologist and preserver of ancient artifacts, drills a hole through it and wears it around his neck. As he encounters locals on the street they tear away from him in terror. He learns that the totem he wears is a symbol of a most powerful spirit – and the longer he wears it, the more intimate he becomes with this mysterious force.
