Khufu's gift to the world
a mighty stone structure
in the Sun Gods land.
The first thing he sees
as he awakens to rise
is this monument bathed in his gaze.
Upon its peak, cast in Gold
stood the Capstone a gift of old.
Hidden away in a wondrous age
within the greatest monuments of the day.
Broken down and scattered they are
until Tartarus shines its deadly light once more.
Rebuilt it must be or suffer we must,
the fury and wrath of the Sun God.
With Ra's prophet overhead a
mighty quest must begin.
From the new world to
the old world and countries in between.
All shall seek the mysterious stone of gold.
Two for power, one for peace
the quest has begun, so quake within.
When the prophets light has set seven times
Ra's destroyer shall bath the world
in an unforgiving blaze.
Scorching all that stand in his way.
the pieces locations are encoded in Toth,
a language so old it precedes time itself.
From trap laden mines to the tomb
of the only earthly ruler.
It is to these locations our heroes must go
to retrieve the Capstone of glittering gold.
Before Ra's implacable destroyer devours us all.
