action
Four gold diggers are looking for gold in a valley. Unknowingly, they cross a rift in the space-time continuum. One of them is caught by a harpy , another falls from a cliff. The two remaining fight and kill a Cyclops . You build a raft, cross a lake and see a building in ruins. This ruin is a wing of the New Zealand Parliament in Wellington - they haven't traveled back in time, but ended up in the future of a post-apocalyptic world of mythical creatures.
