After they fail to obtain information from Harrow's followers, Khonshu causes a solar eclipse to call for a council of the Ennead and their avatars, who summon Spector to a chamber inside the Great Pyramid of Giza.

Khonshu and Spector attempt to inform the gods of Harrow's plan to free Ammit, but the latter successfully denies the accusation when summoned.

However, the meeting goes awry when Harrow arrives and destroys the sarcophagus, forcing Spector, Grant and Layla to fight off Mogart's men and escape into the desert.

Khonshu uses his powers to briefly turn back the night sky to resemble the map, allowing Grant and Layla to find the location of Ammit's tomb.

The site's critical consensus reads, "The action relocates to Cairo in a transitionary installment that fleshes out Moon Knight's mythology while giving plenty more fun material for Oscar Isaac to play with.
