The ship zoomed high into the sky and then became just as invisible as the one which brought me here and which had now invisibly remained behind, left in the tangle of rocks. Deep below, I recognised a sea in the early light of the approaching morning, which, in my estimation, could only be the Mediterranean Sea, which immediately also turned out to be correct. But the ship had already crossed over the sea and sank quickly down to Earth. I was able to discern gigantic pointed structures below us, which, shadowy in the morning light, stood deep below in the desert: pyramids. We plummeted down into Egypt - to the pyramids of Giza. But why, I did not yet know, because until then Asket had still not said a word to me about that. So I also did not know that this was to be the actual beginning of the mission which had been passed to me. I was not left unclear for very long about precisely which place the goal of this flight was to be, because, already in the next moment, the tempo of the descent diminished quite rapidly, without me feeling something myself. And now the sinking became a gentle floating, down to a great pyramid which I had very well in my memory from many pictures - the Pyramid of Giza. I recognised it by the gigantic "animal-human" which, as a statue, stood not far from the Great Pyramid.
