This will be Part 3 of Skysea Tomb.
Summary: When Lord Akhataten and his favored concubine, Hetekepsah, died of old age, they were buried according to custom in a secret and well-guarded tomb, their earthly treasures gathered nearby to purchase godhood in the afterlife. Recently, a sandstorm of particular violence raged across the desert. In its aftermath, many communities were scattered and much damage was dealt. However, the doorway to a previously undiscovered ancient tomb was unearthed. Insignias on the portal lead scholars to believe that the tomb is none other than that of Akhataten, fabled desert pharaoh of yesteryear, whose resting place has been a perfect secret these last thousand years.
Part 1: The group arrives at the Skysea, and makes camp. Raiders attack! One gets away, two surrender, and two die at our hands. The Musketeer and the Warrior are tied up and surrendered. When it gets dark, the glass sea will cool enough for us to travel to the island in its midst.
Part 2: The glassy skysea is crossed and the entrance on the island found and marked as Akhataten's tomb. A Searing Exposure trap is sprung, damaging everyone in some way! They enter with the assistance of their rogue, Akaash, and move into an old garden where an Ironthorn Tree attacks. Skirting the tree, they find a room with tiny stars engraved in the ceiling and writing around an empty fountain that reads, "A passage to Lord Akhataten is achieved only through offering oneself as a sacrifice to the sacred scarabs." They find dust, and then a room with a carpet of black undead death scarabs which attack Ella and Gar.
