- Deep
- in
- the
- southernmost
- deserts
- of
- Wulfgard
- lies
- the
- resting
- place
- of
- Pharaoh
- Ankhu
- the
- Endless,
- one
- of
- the
- greatest
- evils
- the
- land
- of
- Kemhet,
- or
- the
- world,
- has
- ever
- known.
- So
- terrible
- was
- his
- power
- that
- the
- gods
- themselves
- cursed
- him,
- sealing
- him
- away
- in
- an
- underground
- labyrinth.
- Ankhu
- rises
- with
- each
- darkening
- of
- the
- moon,
- a
- walking
- mummy,
- wandering
- this
- tomb
- in
- search
- of
- his
- own
- still-beating
- heart,
- without
- which
- he
- can
- never
- reach
- the
- afterlife.Over
- untold
- ages,
- Ankhu's
- tomb
- remained
- undiscovered,
- a
- secret
- protected
- always
- by
- the
- loyal
- Medjai,
- an
- order
- sworn
- to
- guard
- Kemhet
- from
- all
- threats.
- And
- now,
- a
- new
- threat
- has
- arisen:
- Lord
- Tefnahkt
- the
- Red,
- a
- powerful
- warlock,
- drives
- his
- cult
- and
- his
- many
- slaves
- to
- uncover
- Pharaoh
- Ankhu's
- resting
- place
- and
- steal
- the
- mummy's
- power.While
- a
- small
- group
- of
- Medjai
- desperately
- work
- to
- stop
- Tefnahkt's
- plans,
- one
- slave
- may
- become
- the
- key
- to
- putting
- an
- end
- to
- this
- evil
- once
- and
- for
- all:
- Djedar
- Rath.
- In
- a
- race
- against
- time,
- Djedar
- must
- lead
- the
- Medjai
- to
- prevent
- Tefnahkt
- from
- opening
- the
- tomb
- of
- Ankhu
- before
- the
- coming
- of
- the
- new
- moon,
- when
- the
- undead
- Pharaoh
- will
- awaken
- once
- more.
- For,
- if
- Ankhu
- escapes,
- the
- world
- will
- never
- survive
- his wrath.
