The secret door found here is very cleverly hidden, actually being one of the large stone blocks that the tomb is constructed of. Wouldn't it be for Ahi's enhanced vision, no one would have noticed it. As mentioned before, the inscription is located in the midst of the stone block.
After a cautious examination, Eilkhan is as sure as she can be that there are no traps hidden here - or at least none that she's able to find. Opening it is easy though. The same moment that Eilkhan touches part of the hieroglyphs, the thief has a feeling of impending danger and death washing over her, and then the mighty stone block starts pivoting around its long axis with a grinching noise, revealing a dark and dusty passageway. While the stone block moves, Eilkhan also notices an eerie groaning, and a hoarse whisper of most malign sort comes forth as blown by an unseen wind:
"Fools and Robbers! Thus you invoke the Fourth Curse of Rahotep upon yourselves. Better to have died unborn than to suffer thus."
