{{SL|???|If I don't get the treasure, it means nothing to me whether you find that thing or not!}} | |||
{{SL|Marius|It's Bryce. Let's hide.}} | |||
The temple is completely empty. There's nowhere to hide. | |||
The only possibility is the life-size statue of the God of Death in the middle of the north side. | |||
With his long legs, Marius easily scales the base of the statue. He spins around and extends a hand. | |||
{{SL|Marius|Give me your hand. Step on that altar and I'll pull you up.}} | |||
Following Marius's instructions, you quickly climb up to the base while holding his hand. | |||
Looking at Marius crouching behind the statue, you cover your mouth, trying very hard not to laugh. | |||
{{SL|Marius|What's so funny? This God of Death is way too short.}} | |||
{{SL|Marius|If I stand up straight, Bryce might think that this God of Death has hair.}} | |||
{{SL|You|I'm not laughing at you. I'm just relieved that the God of Death has a pair of wings.}} | |||
{{SL|You|Otherwise, we'd definitely be spotted if we both hid here.}} | |||
{{SL|Marius|Shhh, quiet. He's coming.}} | |||
Through the gaps in the wing, you see Bryce walking into the temple whilst talking on the phone. | |||
{{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Joshua, I'm telling you, the immortal ritual can only be performed with both the incantation and the artifact.}} | |||
{{SL|Bryce Thatcher|The God of Death's scepter has long been lost, but the golden mask in your hands might still work.}} | |||
{{SL|Bryce Thatcher|As long as you can get the golden mask, money isn't an issue.}} | |||
{{SL|Bryce Thatcher|But if the mask ends up in someone else's hands...}} | |||
{{SL|Bryce Thatcher|Heh, then your diary of sadistic hobbies will show up on the police's desk.}} | |||
Having finished speaking, Bryce hangs up. | |||
{{SL|You|(Diary? Did Bryce have something on Joshua?)}} | |||
Having heard Bryce call Joshua, you open the tracking app to check Joshua's location. He's quite far away. | |||
Exhausted from the hike, Bryce takes off his backpack and takes a rest on the floor, his chest heaving for breath. | |||
He seems extremely impatient and restless, and keeps looking between his watch and the outside. | |||
{{SL|You|(Is he waiting for the sunrise?)}} | |||
You tap on Marius' shoulder to ask him when sunrise is, but you find... | |||
{{SL|You|(Is there something wrong with me? Why do you keep ducking and evading me...)}} | |||
You tap Marius again. Your hand accidentally brushes against his ear, which is burning up. | |||
{{SL|You|...?}} | |||
After a moment of confusion, you finally realize what's going on. | |||
When Marius crouches down, his head is right at your chest... | |||
To avoid exposing your presences, you two stay very close to one other. If he moves just a little bit, he'd be touching your... | |||
{{SL|You|!!!}} | |||
You suddenly feel very embarrassed after realizing this. You were just laughing at Marius for being too tall. Now you feel... | |||
{{SL|You|(I really shouldn't have these kinds of thoughts inside a temple. This is karma...)}} | |||
While your head is full of nonsense, Marius suddenly grabs your hand. | |||
He writes on your palm with his long finger in slow but clear strokes. | |||
{{SL|You|(Sun... rise... 10... minutes...)}} | |||
Your palm itches, but you receive his message loud and clear. | |||
Even though you didn't ask and you two never made eye contact, he knows what's on your mind. | |||
{{SL|You|(I don't know what'll happen in 10 minutes...)}} | |||
{{SL|You|(If a miracle really does happen, could it be caused by some sort of mechanism inside the temple?)}} | |||
You suddenly feel nervous. If there really is a mechanism, it's very likely to be near the statue. | |||
Is it going to be dangerous for the two of you hiding here? | |||
You quickly scan your surroundings, trying to figure out the possible location of the mechanism. | |||
However, the temple is too dark. Without a flashlight, it's difficult to discern any interior structures. | |||
What to do... 10 minutes... There isn't enough time... | |||
{{SL|You|...!}} | |||
Someone suddenly pinches your hand. It's Marius... | |||
His finger gently points to your palm, then he starts writing again. | |||
{{SL|You|(Abu...Simbel?)}} | |||
The Abu Simbel temples? Built by the Egyptian pharaoh, Ramesses II? | |||
{{SL|You|(Why did Marius mention that? Did I guess wrong...?)}} | |||
{{SL|You|(Oh, I get it. Is he talking about how the miracle will appear?)}} | |||
During the Abu Simbel Sun Festival, sunlight enters the temple via the door and illuminates the statue of the pharaoh. This only happens on February 22 and October 22. | |||
It is a miracle constructed by ancient peoples with accurate calculations and knowledge of astronomy and physics. | |||
This Temple of Death is very similar to the Abu Simbel. It may have adopted similar designs. | |||
{{SL|You|(So, there is no mechanism...)}} | |||
But... How does he know that you're worried...? | |||
You squeeze Marius' hand as a reply. | |||
He then covers your hand with his other hand, dispelling the cold on your fingertips with his warmth. | |||
Ten minutes pass in the blink of an eye. | |||
Suddenly, the rising sun condenses into a beam and shines into the dusty temple, awakening the sleeping deity. | |||
Inside the concealed temple, there is no light anywhere. | |||
Only the statue of the God of Death is bathed in sunlight, its metallic body shining. | |||
Seeing the rays of the sun, Bryce stands up excitedly. | |||
He seems determined to embrace the statue, but he suddenly grabs his chest and falls down in pain. | |||
{{SL|Marius|Uncle Bryce!}} | |||
Nothing else matters in this moment. Marius jumps off the statue and rushes over to Bryce. | |||
You follow him and rummage in your backpack for the medicine that Bryce had dropped earlier. | |||
{{SL|You|Which of these drugs are for an emergency? Are these imported medicines!?}} | |||
{{SL|Marius|He has a history of heart disease. See if he has...}} | |||
{{SL|You|This, nitroglycerin!}} | |||
Together with Marius, you try to help Bryce lie down and place the nitroglycerin under his tongue, but he doesn't cooperate. | |||
He eagerly stretches out his hands towards the statue of the God of Death, desperate and insistent. | |||
The statue, with its wings wide open, solemnly looks over all living beings. | |||
Between it and Bryce, there is a gap between the ancient and the modern, between death and life.}}--> | |||
