John started to have doubts about having his boyfriend with him in the expedition. Of course, he loved Tamia and wanted to spend more time with his young lover, which was what caused taht idea in the first place, but the boy was not really prepared for such hard tasks and to be perfectly honest sometimes hsi whining made John really tired.
At his age of 27 John was already the acccaimed feild archeologist. He was 5'12'' tall and very athletic, with wide shoulders and firm muscules needed for such intense physical efforts which his job required.

John couldn't yet explain why it looked so new and survived all the ages apssing by so well, but it was a priceless find for sure! "Oh, Tamia, you precious brat!" the man hugged his lover and civered his face with fast happy kisses. He then turned to the walls to start the research (even though it was obviously a matter of months, if not years, to study this place well). "...who enter... mmm... must endure, I guess?... Endure what?.." John still tried to read and translate the scripture on the wall then he heard his lover's steps quickly moving down the stairs. "Tamia, no! You can just run here, it's dangerous both for you and this place!" John cried, hastily following his careless boyfriend...
