Old Callen remained as the last surviving treasurer in Eldoria while gold had lost its value in the broken city. Kingdom wealth used to be under his watchful eye but now he secured only one small locked chest. The people around him ridiculed him since they thought the treasure disappeared long ago. But Callen knew better. A scroll representing Eldoria’s genuine value of wisdom and compassion and unity remained safeguarded within the chest. Callen opened the chest for the last time when war soldiers breached the city gates. Leaders studied the scroll which brought back their forgotten memories of personal identity. The fighting stopped. Eldoria returned to life thanks to the last treasurer whose relentless protection of hope became its greatest legacy after material wealth disappeared. And then, Callen vanished.
