Using her magical gem to shed more light, and closely followed by Sol, Eilkhan slowly advances further into the hall. As she reaches the third row of pillars, Eilkhan is finally able to make out the sides of the hall. Six upright wooden sarcophagi are standing there to either side of the chamber. Between them, dark and narrow hallways lead to unknown places. The far side of the large hallway is still out of view to Eilkhan, but it seems as if it broadens even more behind the two enormously thick pillars that she can see now.
Suddenly, from the floor near her feet there comes a glow of blue-red light. Amidst the fiery colors forming therein is the suggestion of a hand shape. Hieroglyphs of eye-searing azure-crimson are being etched into the stone. They can somehow be understood by her as she looks upon them and read as follows:
"Now reigns Rahotep, and the Set Rahotep in turn rains down upon those robbers who enter His most sacred Mortuary Palace The Sixth of His Curses!"Do Eilkhan and Sol dare to press ahead?
