The heavy air of the tomb hung thick with the stench of rot and unwashed grease. Where a majestic god once stood, a mountain of black, oily flesh now slumped upon a pile of trash. Anubis, once a towering deity of death, was now a doughy, adipose slob, his blubbery thighs quivering with each labored breath. The temple, once pristine, was a landfill of garbage, posters, and discarded wrappers. A flat-screen TV flickered in the gloom, casting a sickly light on his potbelly, while the scent of his own filth mixed with the aroma of cheap takeout. He was no longer the guardian of the afterlife, but a hedonistic couch potato, his divine powers waning as he sank deeper into his gluttonous, lazy existence.
