Scaraba Cultural Museum: Difference between revisions

The '''Scaraba Cultural Museum''' is a museum in ''[[EarthBound]]'', located in [[Summers]]. It plays a somewhat important role in the game's story-line. A hieroglyph is displayed on the second floor, which, during the game, is being remodeled. The security guard will not allow [[Ness]] to enter the second floor due to the remodeling, but offers an "under the table deal", offering passage in exchange for the [[List of key items in EarthBound#Tiny ruby|Tiny ruby]] found in [[Poo]]'s inventory from the start of the game.

Upon approaching the hieroglyphs, a battle with a [[Shattered Man]] will ensue. When [[the player]] [[check]]s the hieroglyphs, Poo reads them, revealing the secret to the [[Pyramid]]'s puzzle, foreshadowing the cave of the past, and providing some background on Scaraba. The party is then given a [[List of key items in EarthBound#Hieroglyph copy|copy of the hieroglyph]] for their own use. [[Porky]] made a similar deal with the guard to take a picture of the hieroglyphs before Ness's party arrived. The telephone rings as the party are leaving, and Ness answers it. [[Mr. Spoon]] intended to call [[Mr. Fork]], but he still informs Ness that he had made a [[Magnet Hill|great discovery]] back at the [[Dinosaur Museum]] in [[Fourside]].
