No. ( another agreement, lacking entirely in judgement. marc's wholly used to his protection being his own concern, with khonshu occasionally paying it mind when it suited him — and ignoring it when it didn't. but it further begs the question of: why lock something inside a tomb? fear is the easy answer — fear of losing control, losing power, being defeated, destroyed, hurt. any number of reasons or excuses, or it could simply be a distraction. outside of the lack of entrance or exit, there's nothing that feels unusual to marc, but then if khonshu's left him alone, would he even notice? )

We're dead. ( he remarks, attention shifting back to the mausoleum. he's used to sand, to jackals. to guns and to knives. ) Maybe it's meant to serve as a reminder: that we're here and there's no way in or out. ( a beat; a glance back over his shoulder. ) A metaphor. ( not really his thing. )
