Session Summary - 1/5/2020

Jurgen checks himself into a hospital for treatment and is released the next day.

The party hitches a ride to El Wasta to look for the old lady, Nuri. A man named Ubaid approaches and says that he believes that Alabama is asking for his mother. He brings us to visit her, but it is clear that her mind is mostly gone. When asked about the Carlyle Expedition, she points to a nearby box. Inside is a stone table adorned with symbols, including an upside down ankh.

The party travels to Memphis to investigate the Clive expedition. The party notices that the guards are all wearing necklaces with inverted ankhs. They are greeted by Martin Winfield who talks about the recent theft of the mummy of Queen Nitocris, and introduces them to Dr. Clive, who is accompanied by a German woman, Johanna Specht, who was introduced by Clive as a mystic.

2 policeman who were guarding the mummy went missing during the theft. The sarcophagus weighed several tons, making the theft even more odd. The dust was undisturbed except for the footprints of the expedition members, and there were no tracks for rollers, etc. The sarcophagus just disappeared. The party also learns that the Penhew foundation is funding the expedition.

Two Rocks learns from Agatha that Clive made it seem like the discovery of the pyramid was a random occurrence but in reality he knew its location already. She believes that the sarcophagus has some sort of power and claims to be working against Clive, and that the sarcophagus was stolen in order to resurrect the Queen. The crown, necklace, and girdle of Queen Nitocris are required in order to bring her back.
