During the adventures that follow, they meet Moses and Aaron. They witness the giving of the law in the desert and experience first-hand the evening of the first Passover. They also observe the plagues suffered by the Egyptians because of Pharaoh's stubbornness and become participants in the Red Sea crossing where they are able save the lives of a couple children. On their last adventure they are called upon to rescue the charioteers they met on their first trip through the medallion.
