Tristan made his way over the last dune on the old road. He sighed softly, "Well well... I guess that's the place..." Eying the Obilisik in front of the temple from his position. He padded down the hill, taking a drink from his built in camel back in his pack, keeping the spire in sight as he worked his way through the ancient town, eyes drifting over the graffiti scrawled in Arabic over crumbling walls, beaten down pillars and constantly shifting sands. The arctic hare took another drink, wondering briefly why he was still doing this, and why he hadn't at least thinned his fur before going to Egypt in October. He perked, hearing something on the wind, or maybe it was the wind...<br/><br/>Tristan walked up the stairs of the temple and entered looking around at the immaculate chamber. No markings was the first thing that caught his eye, and even the lack of graffiti. Apparently this structure retained its sovereignty after all these centuries. He spotted the only flaw in the room's construction, a crack in the wall. He couched down next to the hole there with a soft hm. He traced his paw around the switch, careful not to touch it and looked around again. From this angle he could see behind the altar and stood, walking in that direction to get a better look at the stairway, hmming softly. Much better masonry than other similar sites of similar age, he noticed immediately, looking for the mechanism that changed what looked to have been flat floor into a stairwell leading down. His phone rang and he fished it out, opening it up after seeing the Caller ID: Newton. Tucking the receiver under his ear, he answered, "Yeah, Newt?"<br/><br/>"Tris, I don--" Came through the phone before there was a shorting electrical noise, and some strange voice, before the connection died. Tristan recoiled from the phone with a wince, before looking at his phone. The screen was darl. The hare pushed the power button but nothing happened. "Damn substandard crap..." He stuffed it in his pack and retreived his maglite, decending into the darkness.
