The two were extremely in sync; at the moment Char turned around, he spread his arms, disregarding the spiders or any other multi-legged creatures scattered and crawling out from the stone coffin, grabbed the assorted burial items, and dashed out. Meanwhile, Brand dove to the side, rolling to avoid the stone slab that crashed down from the ceiling, landing right by the skeleton tilted sideways next to the stone coffin.

By now, the sand from above was pouring down heavily, nearly burying those cards. Brand hastily reached out to grab them, but as soon as he did, the two eye sockets of the skeleton he hadn't been paying attention to flashed with red light. Suddenly, with a clatter, the whole skeleton stood up straight and stretched out a pair of clawed hands toward Brand's neck.
