It was 1925, that summer as you were on a cruise across the ocean. America has started a war against Japan, while the rest of the world was fighting against Germany. The only safe place away from concentration camps, and plane battles, was the southern side of the Atlantic Ocean, where the cruise ship you were on was going to Africa.
Whatever the case, as you were safe from herds of military soldiers from different countries, and heard from people on the cruise that there was gonna be an auction for aquatic items from Atlantis. You go to where the auction was being held, and take your seat next to a guy wearing a white eye-mask, bowler hat, and black tuxedo, who looks almost like the employees with the cape as an addition. The man you were next to must be the man in charge of the auction.
