Koohii Story 1 A skeleton is shuffling along the shoulder of the road, so you pull up next to him and ask where he is going. He says he´s going to donate his marrow to the hospital because he got into some financial trouble and lost everything; his marrow is the only thing he still possesses.
Koohii Story 2 A skeleton by the side of the road, holding a sign "Possess marrow, will travel". Yeah, it makes no sense but I don´t foget the kanji.
