Boone, however, was skeptical of Horton's intentions for such a challenging expedition, and his suspicions were proven right when Horton revealed that his ulterior plan was to bring back the mysterious and priceless "Silver God," a relic of a mysterious and dangerous race of people who lived deep within the lost cave city of the forbidden mountain.
