He entrusted the box to the village of Mayurhat to keep watch on for all time. Alas during the 101st year a demon tricked the guards and opened the box releasing all of the evil spirits. Fortunately, just in time, a young man shut the box. It turns out that there was also a good spirit inside which was called Hope and the young man smiled at that reflecting on hope.
