Dialogue
Introduction
- Ptahmose: This valley used to be a secret to the world.
- Ptahmose: Even to the secret world.
- Ptahmose: Now it's Grand Central Station.
- Ptahmose: The first to enter came a few months ago.
- Ptahmose: They found the secret passage, my passage, and they knew how to get through.
- Ptahmose: I can only blame myself.
- Ptahmose: Then there were earthquakes,
- Ptahmose: fires from the sky, and the disciples of the Aten came out of exile.
- Ptahmose: Now the defences are breached.
- Ptahmose: Finally, there was you and your kind.
- Ptahmose: I have learned to both fear and welcome the agents of Gaia.
- Ptahmose: But the latest visitors are what worries me.
- Ptahmose: The demons from the Hell Dimensions have heard the whispers of the Black Pharaoh
- Ptahmose: and they are transcending the dimensions to come to his aid.
- Ptahmose: We have enough trouble with the horrors brought back from the land of the dead.
- Ptahmose: We don't need visitors from other worlds as well.

We cannot hear the voices that draws these demons from the pits - this infamous call of the Black Pharoah, Akhenaten. However - based on observation - we must conclude that it grows louder.
Dare to open your ears to it. To hear it is to be lost.
Ptahmose has grown weary and restless with age, but this flux of evil is not his fault. What stirs in the valley is a result of more than a spied passage or footprints found in the sand. All who hear the voice are being pulled, as into a spiral of promises

I'm big on keeping things separate - in my view, two fronts are better than one. There's more wiggle room that way. Keep the forces of Akhenaten and the forces of the Hell Dimensions away from each other.
Some form of the Black Pharaoh is drawing power to itself out there. Demons from the Hell Dimensions don't just rise up for anyone - not in these kinds of numbers.
Fun fact: creating a rift violates section 7 of the Venetian Code. That's a good thing. Think of a Venetian Code violation like a speeding ticket. It means you're having fun out there.

I am relieved you found a way back. Well, part of the way at least. The Egyptian desert is preferable to the Hell Dimensions, but - at the present time - not by much, I'm afraid. The day you step back into sweet dreary London is the day I shall consider you truly home.
I fear that won't be anytime soon.
We are concerned by the forces of Akhenaten and likewise concerned by the forces of the Hell Dimensions. The thought of these two concerns bleeding into one is quite vexing. Help Ptahmose to keep things separate and tidy however you must.
