"And lo! the King Nur-ab-Sal cometh, and in his wake shall follow fire and destruction, and the kingdoms of Egypt will rise to  reclaim their lands, and ruin will come upon all who oppose them!"

...seriously, that's what I found in my fortune cookie yesterday, and at the time I thought it was a bit wierd. But here we are.

Ah, they must have run out of the 'good tidings' barrel and had to go onto the 'apocalyptic doom' one.

Nur-ab-Sal? I thought that was just something made up by Lucasarts for Fate of Atlantis.

"I want to put Nur-ab-Sal in a box."
"Why don't you sic Nur-Ab-Sal on the guard?"
"Good old Nur-Ab-Sal.  I'm starting to like him."
"I just want you to know I work for Nur-Ab-Sal."

Wow, you got the reference. And I thought I was being obscure. Kudos.

Has it been ascertained that this tomb is in no way linked to terrorism? Because I don't trust it until that happens.

Not all of us rob graves, sometimes it's just seeds :p
