happened. When the Big Dig uncovered an underground chamber beneath the Boston city, many
among the top archeologists of the Harvard University were consulted. This underground
chamber contained an ancient prophecy. This is revealed by the conversation between the Mayor
and John Doherty. Archeologists are sought for advice. The Mayor insisted that among them be
Richard Lyon who came with Alexandra Martin. (Giancola Donna and Celeste Undine, 36)
Alex’s observations on the scene of Big Dig were terrible and was greatly moved by the
wailing and the voices of homeless street prophets who demanded money. The Big Dig rapture
brought a big challenge to the Academy of if they were to be wrong in the investigation, what
reputation it would build on its history. Alex consults her friend Diana Wolfe, who was
convinced that the Big Dig had raptured one of the biggest energy centers in the world. The
discussion about matriarchal culture between Diana and Richard had gone beyond boundaries.
Now, Alex postponing her lunch offer by Diana in order to meet Richard put Diana under worry.
Richard, however, gathered evidence about the site's underground hollow existence before he
met Alex, whom he thought she would help.
This Big Dig is associated with a lot of scandals and the Mayor is not willing to let the
facts about the rapture that caused the death. The city is then needed to stay silent on this until
information is gathered. The media attention is feared to investigate this incident. Apart from the
historical preservation, there are several controversies. The meeting between Alex and Richard is
aimed to seek information about the exploded site whether it was a native ancient site. Alex
acted wisely not to open up to the discovery to Richard without having any basic proof, as this
would expose her to political grounds when the issue reaches the Mayor, (Undine Celeste and
Donna Giancola 205).
