Before them sprawled a vast clearing, densely packed with people, all on their knees!
A towering Maya-style pyramid covered in gold ornaments, and bizarrely shaped totem pillars lent an eerie feel to the scene.
It was clear that a ceremony was taking place here.
A resplendent-robed priest wore an ornate headdress decorated with feathers, and in his hands, he held a long wooden staff embedded with a huge sapphire.
He slowly moved towards the high platform—beneath his feet, a brightly colored carpet was spread out.
On both sides of the carpet stood rows of scantily clad beautiful girls, each holding various offerings in their hands—various fresh fruits, exquisitely prepared delicacies.
Many more were rare and exotic treasures, gold products, and so on.
The priest went up the pyramid where there was a huge golden statue at the top, the very same one Sean Knight and his companions had seen in the underground hall!
