[QUOTE="Brazeku, post: 4061867, member: 48916"] Upon hearing Minnefret’s words, Ran-Osiris nods solemnly. [color=blue] “What you speak of sounds like an offering; foods are left out for ba-spirits to consume while they ready themselves for their journey to the underworld. If anything, it seems likely that the offering attracted ba-spirits, which in turn attracted Ammut. Yet this does raise an interesting question. There are two possible reasons for a person to have placed an offering in an area so choked with dead: either to appease their lost ones, or to call them forth.” “It is also possible that the person placing the offerings knows of Ammut and wished to beckon [i]her[/i] forth. The most likely reasons for this are troubling at best. I know of no mortals in the city who could do this safely, though there may be some who would undertake such a deadly task.”[/color] Meanwhile, Runihuna is studying the various mystical sigils carved into the walls. Unlike most temple walls these are bereft of any scenes or depictions, instead the designs consist of row upon row of hieroglyphs, carefully arranged to spell out ancient words of protection and constancy. Blue and violet light courses gently along their lines. The words can be read, but their content looks like gibberish to you – they must be in another language or a secret tongue. Ran-Osiris begins to speak once more. [color=blue]“To answer your question, Runihuna - the high priest should not have been able to strike his name from the book of the dead. The pages are immutable, and protected by the divine power of Re himself. However, it bears mentioning that the high priest was a master scribe in his mortal life, and wrote literally hundreds of sacred scrolls for use in burials and as charms. If he has somehow learned how to alter the book, it is imperative that we recover it from his clutches immediately. He must be stopped.” “If we cannot discover the substances necessary to enter the underworld, there is another, albeit more dangerous way. One could travel through Ammut’s own portal. But I’m sure you can understand the danger. This method would be a last resort.”[/color] [/QUOTE]
