WW CCXXI: The Curse of the Mummy
Werewolf CCXXI: The Curse of the Mummy

Somewhere in the Egyptian desert, early 20th century. After months of research and excavation, a team composed by Egyptologists, native Egyptians, soldiers, representatives of the British government, adventurers and fortune-seekers have unveiled a previously undiscovered tomb. It is supposed to be the discovery of the century, as it is located far away from the traditional pharaoh burial site.
However, what they really found was the prison of an evil priest and his followers, who thousands of years ago tried to bring the end of the world by summoning the sun eating snake Apep, among other dark rituals. Foul creatures and malevolent spirits were trapped along with them, hoping no one will disturb their imprisonment.
Even though the tomb is covered with protective seals and several warnings and even an old man accompanying them urged them not to open the chambers, the members of the expedition chose to ignore because come on, who is going to believe that superstitious stuff anyways?
The doors open and they’re met with a chilling shriek and lots of dust. After the initial surprise (which should have been enough to send someone reasonable packing), the crew finds several sarcophaguses and what appear to be jars and statues. Not precisely the treasure that they were expecting, but still worth something.
Night is coming, so work will be resumed the next day. News aren’t good the next day: it seems that there were at least some expedition members were reasonable and decided to get going with most of the means of transportation and supplies. A little expedition is sent back to Cairo to ask for help, while the rest wait while cataloguing the contents of the chambers.
Inside the tomb, you discover that the sarcophaguses are open and empty but one, and a guard is found dead with a dagger on his chest among them.
What kind of evil has been unleashed? Will the remaining expedition members be able to defeat the curse of the mummy before all of them are sent to the underworld? Or will the priest be resurrected and unleash his evil upon the world once again?
