((this is the official report on an incident in the desert just outside of the city of Kun Qalasi))
The blush ramau Tut-Amun set out to help move the giant carved monolith that an archeological expedition uncovered a while ago. The king ordered the monolith moved closer to the entrance to the road that leads up to the city. The rat Edward and the fennec Nebt-het, magical advisor to the king, followed along.
The blush ramau proceeded to write magical symbols on the sled upon which the monolith stood, as traditional work was already under way to re-locate it, at the cost of great physical effort and time. The ramau's intention was to expedite things and greatly reduce the number of people and effort needed to move the item. The blush ramau Khufu was brought in to assist with the project at this time.
However, the sled broke apart under the tremendous weight of the monolith (some 150-tons), and the tall spire of stone toppled over. Khufu was able to divert the trajectory of the monolith, saving himself and Tut-Amun and Edward from being crushed, but Nebt-het was unable to get out of the way fast enough, and was hit by the giant rock on its way down and partway crushed beneath it.
Tut-Amun was able to perform what he referred to as an "emergency soul transfer spell", with which he then bound Nebt-het's consciousness and spirit to a nearby rock.
By this time the commotion attracted the attention of the city guard and with the assistance of the lion Drysands, they were able to liberate Nebt-het's crushed body from underneath the fallen monolith.
The guards took the blush ramaus under custody until the situation could be explained to the relevant authorities. The now talking rock possessed by Nebt-het's soul was left with Tut-Amun, since the ramau was rambling madly about souls and curses and deities and the guards felt it better not to mess with that.
