When no information is obtained, Khonshu alters the circulation of the sun and moon to summon the Egyptian gods through their human Avatars. Khonshu's purpose is to warn them of Arthur's plan. However, the cunning Arthur successfully denies the accusations, even making the gods turn to judge and threaten Khonshu.

Yatzil - the Avatar of Goddess Hathor who is the only one who believes in Khonshu, directs Marc to find the sarcophagus of a medjay named Senfu who was tasked with recording the location of Ammit's tomb.

This sarcophagus is currently owned by an antique tycoon (and thief), Anton Mogart. Layla takes Marc to meet Anton - who she knew before. However, Arthur appears and destroys the sarcophagus, inciting a fight between Marc - Layla with Anton's bodyguards.

However, that is the position of the stars 2000 years ago; Khonshu uses his powers to turn the night sky back to the exact night that the map was created, so that Layla can locate the position.
