Prizes in hand, a quake and sound of crushing inform the group that it's time to leave. Sprinting up the steps, the less athletic of them being carried by Kelly's bodyguards, they make it to the surface, just a moment before the tomb is torn asunder and slides back down into the desert sands. Looking around, they see that the great city that was there before, and its dangers, are now just a few deserted stone ruins, swallowed up by the desert. Each explorer realises instinctively that the strange time bending of the city has ended, and that they're back in the modern day.
Natasha grab armor set, and put it on immediately.
"This is one bullshit in most adventures. You gain as reward special items what you could use to defeat the boss, if it wasn't just the boss who guarded it." She chuckled to hersellf as she again get dressed. Maybe not completely dressed, but still it was better than walking complety naked.
As the group thinks takes a moment to breathe, Natasha considers her options. On the one hand, she could make her way back to the exfiltration point her unit established, and take a helicopter ride back to base, after which her superiors can decide what to do with the few relics she managed to unearth - and she can return to the life of a soldier. Or, she could perhaps make her own way, selling the relics to fund her new life and going AWOL. Or, she realises, looking at Max and the texts on the art of humility, she can try to unearth more of the ancient art, and seek to deepen her powers.
Miriam needed but a moment to choose. Sure, a staff that could force a person to obey one of her commands was nice, but knowing people's thoughts was a lot more useful overall. Thus she chose the Eye of Horus and quickly took it before going back to the xit, ready to leave before the whole place collapsed.
The eye fits neatly into her pockets, and she feels a rush of power as she touches it. Outside, seeing the ruins, Miriam ponders what to do next. The city's magic may have left it less impressive looking than she was hoping for, but even these old ruins are an impressive find, enough to cement her reputation as an archaeologist and shut up her doubting parents for good, and it's not like Melinda is in any place to rob her student of the credit. As for Melinda, Miriam considers her options. After all, Taia is still in Melinda's body - Miriam wonders how to deal with that situation.
Beatrice cursed, as she desired both item - for a moment she wanted to go after the bowl - having eternity, would be nice - but instead decided to go for the book. She knew that there were various ways to retain immortality. Anai was a proof of that. She grabbed the book, before departing.
One day she would return here and get the rest of treasures... she also did not resign from enslaving Anai. She would find the queen's ghost, and make her serve...
As she exits out into the moonlight, Beatrice realises that she's not in her own time anymore. Something primeval tells her that she's in the modern world, the world of the slave who had tried to steal her body from her. Looking at the spellbook, she determines that it will only take some translation to uncover the secrets to return to her own time - and continue her plans to become master of the medieval world. At the same time, she thinks, she could also explore this new, modern world, and exert her power over an entirely new generation. The slave's memories come rushing back to her, informing her all she needs to know about the cult that had owned her. Perhaps that cult could use a new master?
"Well, I already know which one to take!" He chuckles, reaching for the bell, after all, it was what was promised to him. "Alright, let's go Eloise-chan!" He exclaimed, making sure his loot, which consisted of the knife, the clone's necklace, and the bell was secured.
Outside, Mori/Akrem sees that the others are pondering what steps to take from here, and he does the same. He's still in the body of Akrem, young and vigorous, but he knows instinctively that his original body is where he left it, and Eloise informs him that she knows of a legend about how to change back, should he wish. Atema is nowhere to be found, presumably having remained in her own time, though he overhears Beatrice muttering to herself about a spell to travel through time - and thinks that he could probably collect Atema and bring her back to the future. Either way, he has to consider his next move: Does he return to Kaneda-san, or make his own way?
The dildo was tempting, far too tempting and Kelly found herself reaching for it; but the priestess shook her head. Having men ravish her day an night was not something she was planning on lacking from here-on-out. Instead she took the revealing dress, with it she reasoned she'd be better able to tailor herself to her lovers' desires.
Feeling the moonlight wash over her, Kelly smiles, and falls into her husband's arms. Sadly, the bodyguards have disappeared - relics of an older time, and she feels sorrow at the fact that they'll never have a chance to be inside her again. Nonetheless, she feels Isis smiling down at her, and begins to moan in pure pleasure as her godess' voice sounds in her mind.
Beloved daughter, you have avenged your sisters, and made me proud... Your path from here is your own to choose. You can keep your blessings and go back to your old life, as a loving spouse and teacher - I know that you would continue to honor me with your actions. My palace in Utopia is open to you, as well. I give you leave to depart the mortal world and join your mother in paradise. Or, you can become my agent on Earth, not just honoring me by pleasing men with your body, but by recruiting other beauties and rebuilding the order. The choice is yours. Whatever you choose, know that you go with my blessing, and my love, sweet Kelly.
The voice disappears, and suddenly she feels her husband getting hard, a shadow looming over the two of them. From behind, Ben reaches out to grope her ass, and Kelly realises that whatever she decides, she'll be making her decision with a cock inside her.
(There we go - endings'll be coming up next. Thanks y'all, for bearing with me over this 'short' game
