Job Overview:
One morning a mysterious letter arrives in the mail. The wax seal is fashioned in the style of a serpent. Upon reading it, it becomes apparant that the kidnapper group from before had found out who you are and where you live. But they are not trying to kill you at this time; they wish for you to join them, and to bring any others that you think would be willing to fight for their cause; the compensation, they promise, would be worth it. Not only will they forgive the prior transgressions, but they will pay handsomely for your assistance.
If you choose to explain the situation to a Priest of Ra, they will offer you a reward for cleansing the cult's base. Raid their location and free any prisoners you may find (you may find prisoners, or you may find bodies that have been cut open with their organs removed, or both. The choice is up to you~).

The Heliohaptan morning brought mixed sensations of heat and cool and as the dry air cooperated with the early breeze. The day was young, yet the city had woken by this point. The usual bustle and hustle of the prosperous state resumed its business as it would any other day, however, something was amiss.
The palace of the Pharaoh could be seen from plainly from the window. The bright lights of "Rah" shone in meekly as a cut of sunlight peeked in through the window sheets onto the already made bed by the wall. There was a pleasant aroma rising from the kitchen downstairs and immediately, the young man's senses tingled. Ah, the morning roast, there was nothing like it.
He got dressed quickly. Opting for a summer look, Yushin adorned himself with a simple white, blue, and red tinted Hanbok and topped the outfit off with a traditional Gat from his homeland. The gat would serve nicely to shade himself from the deathly rays of the sun, and if he had assumed correctly, the afternoon would not be so kind to him as was the morning.
The wooden stairs creaked with every step of his way down. They were old, obviously, and a splinter here and there would expose some crookedness with the ascending (or in his case descending) wooden design. Gently, almost like the wind, Yushin descended to the first floor and made way to the kitchen. Upstairs, he had noticed that the room across from his was still closed. What this meant, he did not know.
Not too long ago, Yushin had met up with a friend that he had become acquainted with back in Reim. He was an easterner, much like his own culture, so the two of them got along quite nicely from the get go. Once they had met up, the two took to renting a simple lodge during their stay and thus, they ended up here. It was a nice, humble, abode, nothing too fancy. The entire lodge was two stories, two rooms, a small kitchen which was directly connected to a quaint living room. It was neatly furnished with the simplest necessities, a couch here, a dining table there. The owner of the lease came in time to time or sent a house maid to clean up when the two were away, but other than that, it was quiet.
Stirring a pot of black liquid around from the handle, Yushin peered inside whilst huffing in a nice whiff of the bitter aroma. Ah, yes, fantastic! Pouring himself a cup of the desert brew, Yushin noticed to his side a container of milk and a sealed cup filled with brown sugar. He prompted to ignore them. He drank the coffee black, and the bitter taste of the brew sent warm chills down his spine. Ah...what a great way to start the day.
Making way to the table, Yushin was startled to find a sealed envelope knifed into the table. Oh great, he would have to pay for that. Taking the handle of the knife himself, the young man proceeded to remove it. Using the blade of the knife, he opened the envelope itself so as to look inside its contents. The seal, he had noticed, was waxed on with some symbol of a red and black serpent. How strange...
Tilting his head up towards the stairs, Yushin wondered if Tenma was awake. Who had done this?
"Tenma! He yelled out. He was a tad unsure if his friend was even within the premises of the lodge, but he continued to call out anyways.
"Come here! Did you do this?!"
Suddenly, a knock on the door. Now who might that be?
