The Curse of the Cryptex
The reclusive Grimwold family vanished without a trace in the late 1800s, shortly after Lord Percival Grimwold, a decorated explorer and self-styled “antiquarian of the arcane,” returned from what would be his final expedition to the sands of Egypt.
While investigating undocumented chambers beneath the Pyramid of Unas in Saqqara, famed for its mysterious “Pyramid Texts,” Lord Grimwold uncovered a sealed chamber hidden in the crumbling statue of Anubis, the jackal-headed god of the afterlife.
There, resting in obsidian sand, lay a strange, luminous object that pulsed with energy. It was a five-wheeled cryptex, its rings etched with mysterious symbols, cool to the touch but thrumming with a presence felt in the bones before it was seen. Beside it, a broken stone slab bore one chilling inscription in fragmented hieroglyphs: “The Lock of Eternal Return.”
Grimwold brought the cryptex back to his ancestral home. Weeks later, every soul inside vanished without a trace. No letters. No struggle. Just silence. The manor’s once-proud halls fell into ruin. Its grand mirrors shattered, and its bones sagged under time. Yet strange lights still flicker in the windows.
Faint voices echo through the trees. No one who has entered since has returned. The cryptex, they say, remains hidden inside. Its purpose? To grant immortality, not through myth but through mechanism.
Will you walk away… or dare attempt to break the curse?
A prize beyond imagination… if you dare to claim it. But with that power came a curse, and the Grimwold family paid the ultimate price.
