Carter started down the stairs, but I grabbed his arm. Hang on. What about traps? He frowned. Traps? Didn't Egyptian tombs have traps? Well…sometimes. But this isn't a tomb. Besides, more often they had curses, like the burning curse, the donkey curse- Oh, lovely. That sounds so much better.
Carter was about to descend the stairs when I stopped him, concerned about potential traps. I asked if Egyptian tombs were often filled with them, prompting a puzzled expression from him.
He acknowledged that tombs could have traps, but reassured me that we weren't in a tomb. Instead, he mentioned that curses were more common, naming a few absurd examples like the burning curse and the donkey curse. My sarcasm highlighted...
