Once the main idea (theme) is identified, the challenge lies in deciphering the synopsis, or brief summary, of that theme, which runs diagonally across the grid connecting opposite sides. Your puzzle will be complete when you start searching for a series of words related to the given theme and finding where they are placed on the grid.
