The year is 1898. As the sun relentlessly beats down on the parched sands of Egypt, a group of intrepid adventurers embarks on a perilous journey along the mighty Nile River. Led by the enigmatic Professor van Sommer, they seek to unravel the secrets of a forgotten civilization, armed with only their wits and an insatiable thirst for knowledge.

Among them is the young and ambitious Arthur Jerningham, whose keen eye for detail and thirst for adventure propel him to the forefront of the expedition. Yet, little do they know that their pursuit of ancient mysteries will lead them down a path fraught with danger and unexpected revelations.

Enter the Tragedy of the Korosko

As the expedition ventures deeper into the uncharted territory, they stumble upon a relic from a bygone era: a crumbling temple, its walls adorned with enigmatic hieroglyphs that hint at a long-forgotten tragedy.

There, amidst the crumbling ruins, they discover a papyrus scroll, its fragile script barely legible. As Professor van Sommer meticulously translates the ancient text, a chilling tale unfolds: the Tragedy of the Korosko.

A Tale of Love, Betrayal, and Ancient Curses
