The Ancestor 1

Archaeologists Constance Arca and Leann Ito, along with their most trusted subordinate, Halmar Getzin, received an invitation to meet with the director of the world's largest company. After their previous mission ended in a predicted failure, the sidelined trio was offered the opportunity of a lifetime. Arca, Ito, and Getzin have the opportunity to express their wishes for their upcoming archaeological find. They each choose a site and receive a map that leads them close to it. The soon-to-arrive guide will lead each expedition to the destina-tion chosen by its leader. None of the trio believes that anyone could know the locations of the sites they are seeking, which were lost thousands of years ago. Expeditions sent over the past few centuries had uniformly failed, and Arca, Ito, and Getzin knew that their fate would be the same. However, it was a small price to pay for the chance to choose their own destinations in two months and start exploring them.
