Tales of A Swordsman (Chapter 1: Project Luxor - Part 2)

10:00 PM. Back in my flat, Shane's report came in and I downloaded it into my laptop computer. They found the glitch on the power rectifier. The output is slightly out of sync. They had it fixed already. We'll have to do another runtime test first thing in the morning.


My phone rang.

"Moshi-moshi"

"Rey Jonn, San", It's Yoshi.

I switched to the news tunnel. Our Project Luxor client, the owner of the Luxor Museum of Ancient Egypt is being interviewed. Within a two months, the museum will be opened for the public.

"... the new Luxor Museum of Ancient Egypt is busy preparing for the arrival of the mummies and relics that were all bought back from the different Museums and private collectors from different countries. The relics and mummies were bought by Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities. This is the biggest one-time purchase of relics made by a single institution. And this is made possible my the financial backing of a group of business companies, led by Yosef Akhun-Amun, who is now most probably the richest man the world."



"The Pharaohs and the relics belong to Egypt. Unfortunately, for centuries thieves, who had no respect for the dead, have desecrated and looted so much from the graves of the ancient pharaohs. And it has always been the dream of my father and my father's father to bring these stolen treasures. The Supreme Council of Antiquities has been trying to reclaim Egypt's past from the history thieves. And they have done a great job thus far. It was them who first brought back Ra to his rightful place. But they lacked the necessary resources to complete their job as quickly as possible. In this view, I, and the other businessmen who have the same passion for the History of Egypt have seen the need and agreed to help the Council. Thus far, we have recovered so much already!"

"But still we want to share to rest of the world the relics that proves the greatness of this once proud nation. Thus we have constructed this Museum. This way, we can give the ancient pharaohs the rest the truly deserve, at the same time, by using the state-of-the-art technologies at hand, show them to world!"

"This is just the beginning. Soon Egypt glory will soon be fully restored ... in more ways than you can ever imagine"
