Approaching the edge of the forest, Colonel Larkin raised his hand to signal a halt, then gestured for the team to crouch. Obediently, SG-24 sank into the undergrowth and moved stealthily through the forest, every step deliberate and cautious. When they reached the mouth of the cave, they took time to observe the area from the cover of the brush, watching for any signs of activity. After ensuring no one had been coming or going, they activated their flashlights and slipped quietly into the cave.
Inside, the dim light revealed crates stacked in clusters, filling the entire front chamber of the cave. On one side of the crates, faded inscriptions in Pre-Chaucer Middle English stood out. The sight intrigued Helena, who examined the markings closely.

O-M-G I am loving this. The intrigue is fantastic. Beautifully written and created brother.

Larkin decided not to ask Fairbairn about the symbol, suspecting her training at the SGC wouldnât have covered it either. Instead, he turned his attention to Helena. âSister Helena, was this symbol mentioned during your NID training?â
âNo, sir,â Helena replied. Then, catching sight of something metallic glinting faintly on the ground, she paused. âActually⌠thereâs something here. You might want to see this.â
âWhere are you?â Larkin asked.
âApproximately 200 meters due east from our initial position,â she answered.
âOn our way,â Larkin confirmed. Within minutes, he and the rest of SG-24 reached Helenaâs locationâand stopped abruptly, astonished by what lay before them.

âThatâs Goaâuld!â Larkin declared, his voice tinged with shock as he examined a second crate nearby. His suspicions were confirmedâit was unmistakably Goaâuld. His eyes caught a symbol etched on the top of the crate: a winged scarab beetle. He strained to recall his training at the Alpha Site during his early days in the SGC, but the symbol eluded him.
âRecognize the symbol, Bjornson?â Larkin asked.
âNo, sir. I donât recall it from SGC training,â Bjornson admitted.
Larkin nodded thoughtfully, then spoke into his radio. âFairbairn, Sister Helena, report in.â
âFairbairn here,â came the reply.
âHelena listening,â followed shortly after.
âAre you both examining crates?â Larkin asked. Both responded affirmatively.
âDo the crates have Goaâuld markings on the side?â Another affirmative.
âIs there a scarab symbol on top?â he asked.
âYes, Colonel,â came their replies.

âSplit up and search the room,â Colonel Larkin ordered, his tone firm but composed. âStay in radio contact. Weâll regroup here in ten minutes.â The team dispersed, each member heading in a different direction.
As Bjornson inspected the crates, his flashlight revealed something startling. The markings on one set of crates werenât Middle English at allâthey were Egyptian hieroglyphs.
âColonel, come here,â Bjornson said over the radio. âYou need to see this.â
âOn my way,â Larkin replied promptly. He was at Bjornsonâs side within moments, his own flashlight illuminating the hieroglyphs. His expression tightened in recognition.
