The deep breath. Cairo over Eid al-Fitr: six personal scenes, one per investigator, each built around what that character would actually find pleasant. No Choir, no Mythos, no rolls demanded. Then the Giza ride at dawn, where Thomas’s silver anklet — banked since Alexandria — finally passes to Emma. Then the pre-dawn departure onto the Suez road.
