The stones were here before the desert; the desert came to hide them. Their runes are not writing but wiring — a machine the size of a valley, powered by something that still hums beneath the dunes. The treasure at their feet is untouched, because everyone who reads the runes correctly decides, quite suddenly, that they want nothing at all.
