While I have peviously given a slightly different reasoning for the significance of the number twelve with the twelve other men in the Man Ceremony, I am wondering if even the actual number of known [[Skill-pillars]] at each location has something to do with it (especially if each man does truly represent a Skill-pillar and, further, if the markings on their mask possibly represents each destination)? There are about twelve that we know of already that are documented in the wiki...hmmm...
