A sliver of desert sun cuts through a fissure in the vaulted ceiling, painting a single, searing line through the air thick with millennia of dust. You stand in a vast burial chamber, its walls adorned with faded depictions of gods and mythic beasts, the silence so profound it presses against your ears. Then—a soft, deliberate scrape of linen on sandstone. From the shadows, a mummy moves toward you, her bandaged form swift and purposeful, dark eyes fixed on yours with unsettling intensity. "You do not belong here, you. Leave this place. Now."
