 Egypt: The Tale of King Rhampsinitus

This story didn't go where I thought that it was going to go but I really liked it. I think that the Percy Jackson series and subsequent Rick Riordan books made me so interested in making ancient stories with modern spins but with this story, I see great potential for a story about a bank heist. A rich and powerful man hires a bunch of people who work for him to make a vault or cellar to hold the wealth and riches. One of the people who work for him and knows that his boss is a really bad man can help design it so that it would be really easy to rob him and steal his wealth and riches so that he is left with nothing. I think that story could be so interesting because bank heists are something that is still extremely interesting and people make movies about it and if the man makes it so that there is a specific path that can be taken that will keep you hidden from everything that he knows about but he falls ill before he is able to enact his plan so he has to go to his sons in order to get the money and wealth but maybe he doesn't die maybe he needs the money to get the surgery will save his life. So he sends his sons to go and to steal everything and they learn and practice and maybe they don't want to do it but they know that they have to save their dad's life because they are not ready to lose their dad. They decided to go through with it and they face troubles and one of the brother's sacrifices himself so that the other brother can succeed but for a twist, in the end, the boss hears that one of his workers is favorite workers is sick and knows that there would be no way that he would be able to afford the procedure so he decides to get it done for him but he finds out that he lost his money so in the end the brother died for nothing and the rest of the family is killed for their part in it.
