[ A sin....The Tombkeepers, themselves, did not commit a sin? Whoever...whoever did this to them....instead....he was the victim, after all? All of them. Rishid, and Sister, and Marik, and - and Father, too, Father, doing it all because they thought it was fate, thought it was right, when really their Pharaoh....
Rishid. Who do I hate for this?

...he does not realize he has started leaning on the Living Horus because remaining upright is kinda tricky right now. Oops. ]
