A haunted dig site

Set up camp.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting the desert in a warm orange glow, the team decided to set up camp for the night. They chose a spot near a cluster of rocks, which would provide some protection from the wind and any potential sandstorms.

As they pitched their tents and started a fire, Liam pulled out a portable speaker and started playing some music. "Hey, let's get this party started!" he exclaimed, grinning.

Sophia laughed and started dancing, her feet kicking up sand as she spun around the fire. Hawk joined in, his movements awkward but enthusiastic. Maya smiled, watching her team let loose and have fun.

Elianore, however, sat apart from the others, his eyes fixed on the darkness beyond the firelight. "I don't like this," he said, his voice low. "I have a bad feeling about this place."

Maya walked over to him, her footsteps quiet on the sand. "Hey, Elianore, what's wrong? You're not getting cold feet, are you?"

Elianore hesitated, his eyes still fixed on the darkness. "I just have a feeling that we're not alone out here. That something is watching us."

Maya's expression was skeptical, but she tried to reassure him. "We'll be fine, Elianore. We've got each other's backs. And besides, we're not going to find anything if we don't take some risks."

As the night wore on, the team settled in around the fire, their laughter and music carrying into the darkness. But as they drifted off to sleep, they couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched, that unblinking eyes were trained on them from the shadows.

The next morning, the team woke up early, feeling refreshed and ready to tackle the day. They packed up their gear and set off towards Akhet, their hearts pounding with excitement and anticipation.

As they approached the entrance to the lost city, they noticed that the air seemed to grow thick with an eerie silence. The statues loomed before them, their faces stern and unyielding.

"Okay, guys," Maya said, her voice low. "Let's be careful. We don't know what we're walking into."

The team nodded, their faces set with determination. They stepped forward, into the unknown.
