As the main players in the Secret Society go about recruiting new members, six others who turned the Society down are recruited by "Mockingbird". The Six --as they are called-- will work for Mockingbird willingly or be blackmailed into doing so. If they succeed in bringing down the Society, Mockingbird has promised them each a major continent to have, as well as sparing their lives.
