Courtyard - Sallah’s House (Old Cairo)

Candlelight flickers in the open courtyard of Sallah’s house under the night sky of Old Cairo, its stone walls enclosing a fragile haven from the city's chaotic streets. Eerie winds howl unnaturally, stirring tension as Indy and Sallah assemble the Staff of Ra headpiece, discuss Nazi advances, and absorb warnings from Sallah and Amir about the Ark’s deadly, otherworldly power. Shadows deepen the ominous mood in this quiet space where divine peril hangs heavy.
