| 0:00.0 | I'm pulling on the driveway. We all know what that means. This time for the drive to work. |
| 0:06.0 | And I've been talking all about pharaohs beyond death. |
| 0:09.0 | Okay, so I'm up to red. I've previously talked about white, blue, and black. |
| 0:14.0 | Okay, so we start with the Akroen War. |
