Sphinx

             This is khaemdua's diary entry.
             Just last night there was a robbery in the western cemetery. The guards at the time were busy drinking. My buddy and I worked hard on the construction of the tomb for our great lord to have a safe journey in the underworld. The robbery occurs about 10pm according to our sun/moon dial. As the life of our pharaohs goes on all possession that belong to him was buried with him to continue use them in the after life. The grave robbery happens very often because traps were not set up and those no good doer robbers the tomb clean. Taking whatever is valuable to them then later sells it in the market for as much deben as they can. I have seen this happen before and those bastards also destroy the hard work me and my buddy did for the tomb. On the night of the incident two grave robbers dressed in black and dug their way into them tombs. Two other guards saw them and call for cease but they did not do as they were told and ran. The guards chase and eventually one of the robbers were caught and was denied anything to do with the robbery. His excuse for stealing from the past way is that he was told to do so by the other guy because that other guy held his family as hostage. Couple of hours later the guard caught the other theft and was tortured until he confessed everything. It turns out that the first guy didn't even have a family and it was his idea in the first place. Both thefts were hanged because they intruded the gods.
             That sin was the most evilest of all and the thefts deserved they punishment.
