Sep 6, 2023
A stealthy infiltration through a fortress leads the group into a trap-filled pyramid. Tricky puzzles, teleporting lamps, and a mirror-lit hall create chaos and separation. Swarms of scarabs, poison-mask hazards, and tense rope rescues keep the tension high. The climb culminates at a throne room where chanting lectors and focused sunlight signal a dangerous ritual.
