This site to be abandoned
Thank you for stopping in, but it appears it was for naught. I'm sorry to report that this dig site is now closed and must be abandoned. This was necessitated by an unfortunate cave-in which trapped half of my crew underground in the SW sector of the city. In order to rescue them we had to dig our way in sideways from a location a few miles away. This rescue effort took over 8 months and cost us a man's life; not to mention most of our supplies and apparently the sanity of several of the trapped crew members. Now, after posting this sign as a warning to future visitors to this site, we are going to take what little provisions we have left and ride our camels back to Agrabah, where I will have the unenviable task of informing our financiers of the bad news. Whether a future return trip here to finish the work is possible may be up to them. If it is, I do not know if I would again be selected to lead it, nor if I'd agree to such a position if it was offered.
