The Feather of Maat in the Lake of Fire
29 parts Complete Unbeknownst to the police, a gang of tomb robbers has swept the countryside From Memphis to Thebes. Due to tragic circumstances, their unlikely in field leader is Khohar, former Troop Commander of the Set Division at the Nubian border. Having deserted his post upon word of an illness to his young son, the much-honored man fled for his home in Memphis only to find his son, Aker, grievously ill from fever. When the young boy dies, Khohar kills three soldiers sent to retrieve him in a moment of temporary insanity. Slated for execution, he's recognized and saved by Ptah Nekht-djeser, mighty High Priest of Memphis, a man embittered by the recent heresy of Akhenaten with a plan to restock the depleted coffers of his neglected Temple and to facilitate its rebuild: A gang of tomb robbers, funded by the Temple and led by capable men, will scour the Egyptian countryside, looting its tombs and stealing their treasures. Khohar, the man of honor, only agrees to do the High Priest's bidding in return for the Word of Ptah, the magical spell which opens the gates of the Netherworld, to allow immortality for his dead son's Ba (soul.)
