Stories Set in Luxor
Luxor lines both banks of the Nile in southern Egypt around temples and tomb valleys. As ancient Thebes and site of finds like Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, it lives directly from excavation and visitors, with villages set among columns. Luxor follows a doctor returning there, while The Mistress Of Nothing recalls Victorian travelers in the same temples. Open Luxor on the StoryTerra map and filter its stories by any era.
