Chapter 15 lives here.
And here's the TOC.

There's just a very short little epilogue left, and now that this whole thing is posted, I can believe how quickly it went by! I really didn't even intend to join the location challenge - I was busy with two other long stories that just got put on hold, not to mention Pizza Run! But once I started thinking about it, I really wistfully wanted to write about Egypt, and now I feel like this was the story I was always meant to write this summer. Reference notes coming along with the epilogue, but then we're through!

Enormous thanks to 90stvfangirl who kindly agreed to beta this story at a breakneck pace! And gratitude to pacem, for a very thorough second look. clap

Thanks for reading!


Looking forward to this summer's Location Challenge! Looks like stories are due around August 1st, and then polls open for voting!

And don't forget about the 2026 fundraiser! Head over to the Fundraising page to donate or consider adding a story to the Keepsake Collection fundraising drive!

“Honestly, I just want another shower. Every time I go into that tomb now, I end up worrying over what the ancient dust is really made of,” she said, patting what she hoped was just sand off her sleeve and trying not to think of broken canopic jars.

I’d be so offended if I ended up getting sick from messing around with ancient microorganisms that are just sitting there minding their own business lol

She actually enjoyed the ferry ride back across the Nile

How amazing! I think I’d be shaking with both nerves and excitement throughout the whole ride. hyper

“Sometimes, when you play games, other people do occasionally win, Lois.”

She gave him a look that indicated that wasn’t how things went in her world.

I can't understand that either, Lois laugh

“I can’t see through the back of my eyes, Lois!”

“Well, how do I know that?!”

A valid question laugh

“Carnahan said that there was a lost civilization beneath our feet. But with everything we’ve learned about Qurna, it seems like there might be a lost civilization right next door that no one cares enough about.”

whinging

“Any light in the darkness is helpful,”

This is one of the things I fully believe in and it gives me strength to keep going.

like a love as old as the desert sand itself swirling around her

That's beautiful! :')


Stories are written by the victors.

This might be the chapter we have all been waiting for. The secret is finally out and they talk it through. I liked how you handled the revelation.

She felt like she could literally see the weight fall off of him when he wasn’t forced to make up an excuse and leave her fuming.


Aww, I love how she notices it!!

Sameera sounds as lovely as Abo 😊

“Are you...trying to break up with me for my own good?”


Better get that one out of the way asap!!

“I get that,” she said, sitting up. “I haven’t fully processed everything about this yet. But I had time to think when I was in the hospital and you were getting looked at– When you– You didn’t go and get checked out, did you? That’s when you went to clean up the cave-in.”


Whoops 😅

Lovely chapter! I love watching them making promises and plans! love


What we've got here is failure to communicate...

Thank you! <3


Bakasi, I hope it was satisfying after a 14-chapter wait! Thanks so much!


Anna, thanks so much for appreciating Abo and Sameera; they're the first sequel I've ever really wanted to write, lol.

Exactly! I have a handful of show quotes littered throughout this story, and I wanted to be sure to include that one just so I could take it out of their future!


Verity, aw thanks! I felt like I was struggling to write that, so I appreciate that you bring up that end section!
