Sallah's House

Night envelops this small, protected courtyard behind Sallah's house. Indiana Jones and Sallah sit at a rough table, piecing together the headpiece for the Staff of Ra while Indy methodically cleans and loads his .45 pistol. Their banter shifts from Nazi blunders and Belloq's betrayal to Sallah's raid on Tanis's map room and a grave warning: the Ark demands reverence, bringing death to the unworthy. A chill gust sweeps through, carrying an unearthly chill that transforms their quest into a brush with the divine.
