[ WP ] You 're part of a team of researchers working on the Great Pyramid . You have just discovered that the Pyramid was n't built to be a monument . It was designed as a warning .

We were sceptical of course. Our `` theory'' implied that decades of research on egypt were, simply put, wrong. And the implications... Maybe it was all just a hoax? An ancient hoax, like the `` chess playing robots'' from hundreds of years ago. All just intricate tricks to fool the onlookers? 
 
 After Thomas discovered the chamber, he ran to us in a hurry. Unusual for him, considering his calm natural and his insistence on the safety protocol inside ancient ruins. As he arrived at the spacious hall most of our team had been taking a break, he was graping for air. `` Come with me'' he brought out between panting. ``... must see this''. He widely gestured into the dimly light passage he just ran out of. Then he pointed to our equipment `` Take every measuring device''. He himself grapped a microphone and a camera. 
 
 Before any of us could ask him what he had seen he was already gone into the passage again. The remaining three of us quickly grapped every instrument we could carry and followed Thomas hastefully. 
 After a few minutes of hurried walking we arrived. It was a small chamber with only one entrance. It was just big enough the four of us could fit inside. Thomas was facing the wall opposite of the entrance. Facing `` it''. `` It'' emmitted a shallow purple light, painting complex patterns across the walls and Thomas front. 
 
 He had just set up the Microphone on a tripod and was readying the camera. He was mumbling to himself ``... it has n't done anything yet. Maybe its inactive? What if we follow the instructions?...'' 
 As I aproached Thomas I saw it for the first time. Embedded into a notch inside the granite wall, surrounded by images depicting it and some writing. A lump that looked like purple metal, enclosed by a dim purple halo. There were no candles, and I realised we did n't set up any other artifical light. The metal itself was glowing. Geiger counter! I quickly searched through the equipment and held the devise in `` its'' direction. Nothing, only backround radiation. I let out an audible sigh. 
 
 Ralf was already studying the images and writing and made photographies of them. He seemed confused. `` Are you comming to the same conclusion as I, Thomas?'' Ralf asked. `` Yes, this was, no this IS the source.'' `` But this is insane! You can not honestly think their religion was actually their history?'' 
 `` We will see.'' Thomas then took the lump into his hand. A faint purple glow began to envelop him as well. `` Are you insane? What are you planning to do?'' Thomas did n't answer but instead took a battery out of his pocket. He pushed one end onto the lump and closed the circuit with his hand. The air crackled and sparks of electricity filled the room. 
 A blinding flash, and everything was over. No sign of Thomas or of `` it''. 
 
 `` What did he do?'' I asked Ralf. `` He doomed us all...'' He was pointing at the images and writing. 
 The images depicted a sky filled with fire. Then something that looked like an impact of a meteor. People gathering around a crater. One person picking `` it'' up inside the crater. Hands, one holding `` it'' the other something yellow, rubbing them together. A person holding `` it'' commanding other people. Egyptian gods, Anubis and Ra, stepping out of a black space. Ra and Anubis standing in a burning town. And then a person holding `` it'' fighting against these gods. 
 `` And the writing?'' `` Not much that is n't in the pictures. Only the last sentence -Do not touch or they return-''
