The layers above the Upper Crypts contain the tombs of the historic [[Sultans]]. They are affected by a powerful ambient [[normality]] field. Each room contains an {{favilink|imperial sarcophagus}}, a {{favilink|sultan reliquary}}, and several [[Sultan murals]] depicting events from the life of the Sultan. The mural events are alternate descriptions of events from the [[Sultan histories|history]] of the Sultan in question.

The reliquaries contain the [[Sultan masks|Sultan mask]] and any [[relics]] which the Sultan gained and did not lose in their history. They are guarded by [[cherub|cherubim]] from a faction associated with the Sultan, and with dynamic abilities depending on the Sultan's [[Sultan themes|theme]]. For the fourth and fifth sultans, the cherubim will be mechanical. Items cannot be taken from the reliquaries while the cherubim are present. Taking an item from a reliquary will cause "robber chimes" to sound, making all other reliquaries disappear.

=== Unfinished Tomb ===


The top tomb, which would have been the tomb of [[Resheph]], is unfinished, as Resheph was not buried within it. By talking to {{favilink|Herododicus}}, the player (with a tattoo of the [[Mark of Death]]) can demand to be entombed within it. Herododicus will engrave murals depicting the player's achievements. After the murals are complete, the player can enter the {{favilink|sarcophagus}} to travel to [[Brightsheol]].
