The figure reeled and the man fell babbling and sobbing at my very feet. Inert I stood, looking down at him. He writhed a moment and was still. The silence again became perfect. Then, from somewhere beyond the elms, Nayland Smith appeared. I did not move. Even when he stood beside me, I merely stared at him fatuously. "I let him walk to his death, Petrie," I heard dimly.
Petrie is compelled to exclude Narmer from the dynasty, and to relegate him to "Dynasty 0," before the time of Mena.

Something even more important than my death engages Fu-Manchu's attention and this can only be the presence of the mysterious visitor.
