From secret shrines and concealed sanctuaries, the priest led many forbidden rituals for the glory and favor of his goddess. But on a fateful day, the forces of good rose up against the Sphinx Queen, and although their victory was not complete, her rule was shattered and she was imprisoned in a forbidden tomb. Ankhotep and most of her other followers scattered among the hot desert winds and went into hiding. All the while, the Sphinx Queen’s whispers guided her dedicated followers, and Ankhotep embraced her seductive lessons. He was soon convinced of her eventual return, and set about to plan to be at her side during her triumphant return.He founded a new temple, secluded in a remote oasis, situated in the middle of a sea of glass. The Glass Sea is a scar on the forsaken wasteland, created during an elemental battle centuries before. Using his considerable wealth, and the overflowing coffers filled by his faithful congregation, he constructed an elaborate tomb under the temple. Fit for a pharaoh, the tomb was stocked with everything Ankhotep would need in the afterlife, which he intended to spend with his beloved Sphinx Queen. Mundane objects, a place for his wife, and his remaining abundant material wealth were all added to his burial chambers. His master architect, Horeb, was tasked with the design of several deadly traps, designed to protect his physical body and his hoard. The priest underwent the sacred ritual of mummification and was sealed in his tomb to await the return of his goddess. But Ankhotep’s undoing was his blind trust in his master architect.Although by no means wealthy, Horeb had a comfortable life. But he was greedy, and believed that locking away a hoard of golden objects and fine jewels in the fanciful belief of an afterlife was foolhardy and wasteful. Not to mention he’d had a forbidden tryst with the priest’s wife, Nebetia. Ultimately, it was her seductive pleas that convinced him to betray his master, and plunder the tomb he was entrusted to design. He commanded that a secret passage be installed from one of the general burial chambers, bypassing a trapped entrance door to Ankhotep’s tomb. Following the installation, Horeb poisoned the workers to protect his secret. A few weeks after the burial, the master architect used the secret passage to enter the burial chambers. Using his knowledge of the other traps, many of which he designed, he penetrated the innermost chambers and over the course of several nights, robbed the priest of all his worldly possessions, save those adorned on his very body. In the final act, perhaps out of superstition, Horeb sealed the priest’s sarcophagus with molten gold, just in case Ankhotep is resurrected. Horeb and Nebetia fled the oasis with more gold and jewels that they could ever spend in a hundred years.Yet, Horeb’s betrayal did not go unnoticed, as the Sphinx Queen herself bestowed the gift of undeath on her devoted disciple.Mummy: ?Mummy Lord: ?</blockquote>
