A Shocking Announcement!

In the Great Rift Valley of Africa existed a stone structure reminiscent of the Aztec Sun Pyramid. Ironically, darkness reigned inside the mysterious chamber hall in the depths of the Sun Pyramid. 

When the sun reached its peak, a sharp beam of sunlight penetrated through the skylight of the hall. It drove away the darkness, revealing the table placed directly under the skylight. 

The beam of sunlight hit the huge topaz embedded at the center of the table and its warm ochre glow revealed the six figures sitting around the table. 

They wore identical faceless brown masks and long loose gowns that completely hid their figures, obscuring even their genders. The only way to distinguish them were the placards bearing their nicknames placed around the table.
