Walkthrough (thanks in large part to DDO Forums)

The layout of this tomb is a large diamond, with an altar set at the end of each point. The doors of each hall only open when you kill everything in the hallway, so no running to the ends. You can only travel in one direction, and follow the doors as they open, starting north and working clockwise. Watch out for blade and spike traps while you are on the move.

As you enter, most of the fighting is against cultists and other living enemies. When you reach the end of the first hall, you must activate the altar. Activating this altar begins the process of bringing the temple into coterminous existence with the plane of Dolurrh. Layman's translation: you are turning it into a place the undead like to hang out. As you might expect, the halls are suddenly flooded with undead. Luckily the undead are no friends to the surviving cultists. Continue on, fighting your way back down the hall.

Clearing out hallways will continue to open up doors. This will effectively shuttle you in the correct direction. About halfway through will see you to a shrine. One early secret passage will lead to a bedchamber with a locked tablestand style chest. It is not trapped.

After you clear all four halls and activate the four shrines, it is time to head in to the center of the tomb. The doors slam shut behind you, and you are trapped in the room with the mummy and several of his undead, skeletal guards. There are many archers up above which will snipe you from a high position.
