Re: Under the Pyramids
Turn 10 Action Phase
Ruby heads into nearby Cairo while Finn rests and recovers from his sudden turn for the worse. She comes back with a medical book that she "acquired," which she uses to nurse him back to health. Then the two of them venture into Cairo together.

Mark plays with the Canopic Jar until it comes apart, a smaller jar is inside: Like one of those Russian dolls. He receives a mental jolt, it seems to fill his mind with arcane symbols . . . which he comprehends. "I think that my mind is sated with as much of this stuff as I can stomach," he mutters, feeling the urge to belch--Whiskey?, "this jar needs to be given to someone else."

Re: Under the Pyramids
Turn 10 Encounter Phase
In the seedy back alleys of Cairo, Finn bumps into another robed man. He quickly whips out his book, opens it to the proper page, and shouts "Kee Oth Ram-oof!" The cultist punches him in the kidney and runs away while he crumples against the wall.

Action 2: impair Lore to gain 1 Glamour Spell and flip Cursed Tablet.
Mr. Kane wiped his brow, and then studied his, formerly, white linen handkerchief; it was smeared grey with sweat. He loosened his tie and undid his top button: This is no place for serge suits. He flipped the disc shaped tablet over and over:
"You look hot!" said a lady with long flaxen hair.
Charlie hurriedly stood up, puffing. "Sweltered--I mean, it's sweltering, I'm sweltering."
"Mr. Charlie Kane, I presume?" She slid her arm through his. This is my lucky day, thought Charlie.

He would never replace his wife, Sophie, or even look at another woman thought Mark, but nature will out. When he met with the middle-aged, balding, sweaty man and his attractive companion, well, he could not help himself but to furtively check out her face, her figure. And when she spoke, Mark knew he must have her.
Re: Under the Pyramids
Turn 11 Action Phase
When Finn and Ruby return to the dig site at Tel el-Amarna, Mark Harrigan gives them the canopic jar he had found earlier. As Finn relaxes in his tent, he thinks he hears the faint voices of spirits whispering from the jar. He opens his mind to them, and it is flooded with arcane knowledge.

Re: Under the Pyramids
Turn 11 Encounter Phase, Tel el-Amarna
Charlie inspected the .45 Colt Revolver and then watched the retreating forms of Isis and that soldier guy. He guessed that they are a team, albeit a loose band of international investigators versus Nephren-Ka and should be working together, also he realises that the soldier was twenty years younger than himself, but, even so, it still felt hellish unfair. Charlie dug with his heel into the sand; knock knock is the sound his shoe made as it struck buried stone.

Gain (Now I wish that Isis had stayed with Charlie. )

Re: Under the Pyramids
Turn 11 Encounter Phase
As Finn and Ruby explore the Labyrinth of Kish, Finn hears another voice in his head. "Puny mortal, you stand no chance against the might of Nephren-Ka," it hisses.
"Wanna bet?" says Finn.
"Wanna bet what?" asks Ruby.
"You need my power if you are to stand a chance of defeating the Black Pharaoh," the voice whispers in Finn's ear. "It's the only way."
"Can't you hear him?" asks Finn.
"Hear who?" asks Ruby, looking around.
"The voice."
"Are you hearing voices?"
"Just one voice."
"Hey, I'm talking to you!" the voice says, shouting now.
"Sorry, I was talking to my friend."
"Pay attention! I'm trying to help you! That book you carry has the power, if you have the knowledge to unlock it. Open it to page 42 and recite the words aloud."
"What will happen if I do that?"
"What will happen if you do what?" asks Ruby.
"Um...I'm trying to hold two conversations at the same time, and it's not working."
"Page 42!" The voice sighs. "Thousands of years of slumber, and the first visitor I get is an easily distracted moron!"
"Sorry." Finn opens the book to the appropriate page. "Look, you'd be distracted too. She's gorgeous."
"Are you talking about me?" asks Ruby, smiling. Finn nods, and she kisses him on the cheek.
"Well, I can't see her," says the voice, "so I'll just have to take your word for it. Now read the words!"
"This won't do anything bad, will it?" asks Finn.
"Uh...no, of course not. Everything will be fine. Trust me."
"Okay..." Finn clears his throat and reads aloud from the book. "Butyrum Lac Surepo Kee Oth Pradium!"
There is a sudden peal of thunder. "Mwahahahaha!"
"What? What was that?"
"Er...nothing. Nothing at all. Carry on."
