Turns out the diminutive fossil hominid Homo floresiensis may have been much older than previously thought. Homo floresiensis (nicknamed "Hobbit") was a pygmy human species indigenous to the Indonesian island of Flores. It was originally thought to have survived until as recently as 12'000 years ago, and many speculated that it could have inspired legends of the Floresian hairy wildman known as Ebu Gogo. However, new data dates it's extinction to closer to 50'000 years ago, seemingly putting an end to this theory.

I figured we'd keep actual cryptids out of it, but have some form of scenery which envokes a sense of mystery, or elusiveness. :)
(the reason I say keep cryptids out is there is too much stylization or too much of an artsy quality which tends to looks less natural, and natural is what we want.) :)
Unless you wanted something that has been discovered, once regarded as a cryptid or a once thought extinct animal, this would work finely as well. :)
