LOSE) You must have drowned in the river! Obviously, there was no one to place a scarab over your heart. You listen in agony as your heart tells of one bad deed after another. Amit the devourer begins to lick his chops. At the end, Thoth, the ibis-headed god of scribes and wisdom, records more bad than good deed. The last sight you ever see is Amit lunging at you with his crocodile teeth gleaming. Your Ka, or soul, has been destroyed.

THE END

START OVER
