Object
Temporal Trap Activator Device
The Doctor places a palm-sized metallic device on the floor before the mummy case, its surface etched with fine, glowing circuit lines. As the Doctor speaks the incantation of the trap, the device hums to life, emanating a low-frequency vibration that distorts the air around it. Sarah sees its purpose immediately—it’s the key to Sutekh’s containment, a technological counterpoint to an ancient evil. When activated, the device’s glow intensifies, bending temporal energy into a visible tunnel that spirals into infinite darkness, trapping Sutekh’s screams in an endless corridor of time.

Purpose
To manipulate temporal energy and create a containment field capable of trapping Sutekh in an endless corridor of eternity, severing his connection to the present and rendering his physical form unstable.
Significance
The critical instrument that allows the Doctor to neutralize Sutekh’s threat. Its misuse risks thermal overcharge, as witnessed when the mummy case erupts in flames, forcing a desperate escape from the burning priory. The device represents the Doctor’s last recourse against a nearly invincible adversary, bridging ancient sorcery and futuristic technology.
