SYNOPSIS
A bunch of university students(one masters student writing his thesis
on it – who was the one that discovered the site) who find out about
an archaeological site in the bushes. Against the advise of their
professor(who has heard of the myth but doesn’t know where the site
is), they venture into the bush to find it. The object they are
in search of – a mythical lost stone of the Nri priesthood which was
used in bestowing the kingmakers, power to check the king.
They find the site, dig it up and find that it is a little wooden box.
Inside is a stone. As they each hold the stone, they receive one
sensory power – extreme sight, thought hearing, feeling other people’s
emotion…
Anyways, the powers begin to cause trouble for them as four people are
needed to touch the stone for the clan to be complete. The fourth guy
refuses to touch it.
