One by one, they slowly perished Under the scorching sun until only the great warrior himself was left alive.Near death...the Scorpion King made a pact with the dark god Anubis.That if Anubis would spare his life and let him conquer his enemies, he would give him his soul.
Anubis accepted his offer And spared his life.Anubis gave the Scorpion King Command of his army and like an evil flood,they washed away all that lay before them.When his task was done, Anubis forced the Scorpion King to serve him for all time.His army was returned to the sands from whence they came where they wait,silently... to be awakened once again."
