Deep in the jungle island is a little known tribe of cannibals with a fondness of all things gold. They worship the golden skull (an ancient artefact that some say comes from a galaxy far far away). Offerings of blood are made to the skull, drained from the captives alive and drunk by the chief of the islanders during midnight rituals.
A trail of blood leads up to the steps, where the chief drinks from a golden helmet, a trophy from a former victim.
A masked thief, makes off with some of the golden hoard at the back of the temple
