Auctioning the Sunstone

"Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests, next up for auction is an incredibly rare gemstone." Announced the auction manager on the 16th floor of the Nocturne Auction House.

In an unprecedented move, the auction manager had decided to introduce a gemstone into the auction lineup.

His decision successfully captured the attention of everyone present in the 16th-floor hall. All were eager to learn just how precious this gemstone truly was.

The auction house manager opted not to reveal the answer immediately.

Instead, he instructed two attendants to maneuver a cart, meticulously crafted entirely from gold, to the very center of the auction stage.

With the exception of the spotlight illuminating the auction platform, all other lights in the hall were extinguished, plunging the room into darkness.

"This gemstone has been provided by our new member, Mr. Jeremy."
