Line 52:
In the second expansion, ''The Curse of the Pharaohs'', Amunet asks Bayek to investigate a disturbance in [[Thebes, Egypt|Thebes]] which she believes is a sign of another Piece of Eden. Bayek arrives to find the city in the grip of fear as apparitions of the undead plague the region. He learns that two relics have been stolen from nearby tombs: the first, belonging to [[Nefertiti]], was taken by black-market antiquities dealers who intend to sell it; the other, belonging to [[Akhenaten]], was stolen in retaliation for a cult worshiping him being established in Thebes, where the veneration of Akhenaten is heresy. Believing the relics will grant the user the same power as the Apple that Flavius used to subjugate Cyrene, Bayek resolves to return the relics to their proper places. He tracks both relics to a Greek official named Tychon who is based in the [[Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut|Temple of Hatshepsut]].
After recovering the relics, Bayek visits the tombs of Nefertiti and Akhenaten in the [[Valley of the Kings]] and finds them desecrated. The only way to restore balance is to cross over into the afterlife. Bayek discovers these are reflections of the mortal world and that the corruption that had taken hold in Thebes has spread to the afterlife. He realizes that [[Aten]] is actually the Piece of Eden he is looking for and that Akhenaten was not buried with it; instead, it was passed on to his descendants and is held by the cult of Amun. The curse plaguing Thebes was unleashed by Isidora, a priestess of Amun, as revenge for the death of her mother. Bayek follows her to the tomb of [[Tutankhamun]], where she tries to justify her actions. When she refuses to stand down, Bayek kills her and takes possession of the Aten. He then gives it to Sutekh, a thief who aided his quest, and entrusts him with hiding it in a place where it will never be found....
