It was a hot day in the desert of ancient Egypt, and Tamia could barely see where he was going as he followed his lover through the windy sands. Tamia was 20, and was around 5 foot, 5 inches tall. He had dark green eyes, and spoke with a slight Romanian accent. He had black hair, and was rather thin for his age. But this thinness wasn't from poor health, it was just how he was built. He was actually extremely flexible, and rather strong and quick. He had grown up in the circus after all. He was wearing very thin baggy pants and a thin t-shirt, both picked out by his lover for their adventure in the sands.

You see, Tamia was currently dating one of the world's best archeologists. And recently he had gotten a grant to look for a lost tomb, rumored to be around here, buried under the sand. Tamia had tagged along, though at this point he was starting to question it.

"Are you sure its even here? We've been looking for hours and haven't seen any sign of it," Tamia said, clearly growing rather annoyed, as the desert winds began to pick up, knocking sand against his face. "I'm convinced that someone just made up the legend to try and get idiots like us to walk around in the middle of a desert storm just to kill us."

Groaning, he reached in his bag and pulled out his canteen, drinking some water eagerly. Feeling better, he heard a loud howl of the wind, and could feel it getting worse. "The wind's getting stronger," He commented. "We should probably find shelter soon, or else we might get stuck in a sandstorm," He said nervously, before eyeing what looked like an ancient staircase in the distance. Pointing it out to his lover, he began to run towards it, trying to get out of the wind.

The staircase was strange. Despite being in the middle of a desert, there was very little sand on the lower stairs. It was made out of stone, and didn't seem to have eroded at all in the wind. And it was long, it seemed to go deep into the earth, being over a hundred steps deep. Each step seemed to have been lovingly carved into the planet, it looked like it had been made yesterday, despite being thousands of years old. At the bottom was a strange stone door. It was unlocked, but had to words, "Know that all who enter, must endure trials" engraved in it, in extremely ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics, ones that hadn't been used since 3000 BC. Tamia of course couldn't read it and began to walk through it, eager to get out of the storm.
