Pyramids

'Look after the dead', said the priests, 'and the dead will look after you.' Wise words in all probability, but a tall order when, like Teppic, you have just become the pharaoh of a small and penniless country rather earlier than expected, and your treasury is unlikely to stretch to the building of a monumental pyramid to honour your dead father.

,,Ai grija de morti", au spus preotii, ,,si mortii vor avea grija de tine". Cuvinte intelepte dupa toate probabilitatile, dar o ordine mare atunci cand, la fel ca Teppic, tocmai ai devenit faraonul unei tari mici si fara bani mai devreme decat se astepta, iar vistieria ta este putin probabil sa se intinda pana la construirea unei piramide monumentale pentru a-ti onora mortii.
