Ramose And the Tomb Robbers (2001)
“He sighed contentedly and leaned back against the wall of the hut with his hands behind his head. His smile faded slightly.
“The sky’s a strange colour.”
Ramose looked up at the large oval of sky above the valley. It was darkening. Light grey clouds were drifting over the valley. A breeze suddenly picked up. It was more than a breeze. It was a wind strong enough to blow over one of the water jars. It wasn’t the hot wind that occasionally blew from the desert. It was cool. Ramose shivered.
“What...’s happening?” asked Hapu.
There was a low rumble in the distance. The clouds grew darker as they moved across the valley and covered the sun. As they stared at the sky the boys saw a flash of bright light zigzag from the clouds to the pyramid-shaped peak of the mountain known as the Gate of Heaven. The rumbling noise came again and grew until it exploded in a loud crack.
“The gods must be angry,” said Hapu. He was plainly terrified. “They’re attacking us.”
The sky above the valley was completely covered with black clouds.MoreLess
