Worshiped as a god, the artifact was buried centuries ago on the grounds of the Ooni’s (King’s) palace. The current Ooni (King), via his oracle, instructs that the relic be exhumed and then he dies. Surprisingly the sculpture disappears. A hunt for the missing artifact begins and it’s a race against time, for without it the new Ooni cannot be crowned.
