The Nile stretches before you, a ribbon of life winding through golden desert sands. In the distance, the Great Pyramid rises against the morning sun — its limestone casing stones blazing white at the peak. Your excavation permit is signed, your tools are ready, and the workers have just uncovered the top of a sealed doorway in the Valley of the Kings. Three thousand years of silence wait behind that stone.
