Object
Concealed Bulkhead Door of the Antechamber
The heavy stone bulkhead door hides within the antechamber’s sandstone walls, disguised as seamless masonry until pressure or alignment triggers its release. Its surface bears faint traces of Horus’s carved protective glyphs, now half-eroded by time. Sutekh identifies the bulkhead release as a concealed power terminal, using Marcus to bypass the chamber’s defenses by engaging the hidden mechanism. The door moves soundlessly, its stone edge parting just enough for passage, revealing Sutekh’s ancient knowledge and accelerating his escape plan.
