The Cup of Ankh

The Cup of Ankh
The Cup Of Ankh is the treasure inside Anubis House. When the Elixir of Life is drank out of The Cup, whoever drinks it becomes immortal. The Cup is the ultimate goal of the Secret Society and Victor in particular. The Cup was first brought to the House by the Frobisher-Smythes, who recovered it from an archeological expedition into King Tutankhamens tomb. They hid it in the House so that it wouldn't be found, but Victor's father wanted it for himself and he murdered them in the hopes of getting it, but was unsuccessful. Thinking that Sarah knew where it was, he instructed Victor to try and get information out of her. Victor didn't want to, but his father threatened to put him in an orphanage if he didn't cooperate. This marked the end of Sarah's friendship with Victor.

Why The Society wants it
Victor's father created the Elixir of Life and used it to stay young, but he died before he could pass the recipe to his son. Victor had a supply of the Elixir and was able to use it to maintain his youth, but without the recipe he couldn't make any more of it. He tried unsucessfully over the years to recreate the Elixir without success, so he turned his attention to finding the Cup of Ankh, which would make him immortal, meaning he wouldn't need the Elixir anymore.
