Comprehend Languages. At least, that’s what the spell was called back in my day (i.e. AD&D 1st Edition).

The hieroglyphic text around the center seems to be largely names — specifically ‘royal’ names. the upper track, at least, consists of more cartouches than not. A king-list of Dreamland to that point in time? I know more often than not Hieroglyphics are used without much regard, but I wouldn’t rule out an easter egg here… the Latin was pretty well done, after all. I’d try to transliterate them but the image is tiny (at least on my screen) and I’d have to pull down books since I’ve not committed hieroglyphics to memory.

Just had a thought… Egyptians – Cats – Felicity’s kind. Wonder if they will somehow be tied together.

this is, of course, only something that you should fix if you have the time.

(But I do think your rendering of the rock and carving is pretty awesome. I am impressed with all the work you put into putting all those flowers and eyes and things. I don’t remember what they all mean… I didn’t pay attention to that part. Just the skewed perspective )

Ok I don’t want to be picky or anything either (I know others have said the same thing) but I know for a fact that in Egyptian art, no matter what the actual relative size of everything, the King was almost always pictured bigger than everyone and everything else… ok maybe not every THING. My point is that Nicodemus in that carving is WAY bigger than Ramses, who I am pretty sure would not have been happy with that, particularly since he had a pretty bad habit of leaving gigantic statues of himself and his beloved Nefertari all over the Egyptian Empire (sortof). He is the guy who had 4 gigantic statues of himself put in front of his temple (to HIMSELF). And that was pretty early in his reign as Pharoah! He was pretty pleased with himself and his godly profile

I don’t think it is missing pieces but something crusted on. It looks to be on top of the hieroglyphics.
