Read the excerpt from iqbal. then we heard the awful, terrifying sound that haunted our sleep: the grate of the tomb as it was raised and then bang! as it fell closed. the sound echoed in the heavy heat of the courtyard. we couldn't breathe. the air was motionless. the dust lay still. only the horseflies stirred, continuing to bite at our legs, but nobody even attempted to swat them away. hussain khan came back up from underground. we heard his slow heavy footsteps. when he emerged into the sun he squinted his eyes. he closed the door with one final push and approached us where we were still clinging together at the entrance to the workshop. based on the descriptive details of the setting, what can be inferred about the tomb?

Only based on the descriptie details of the setting, the "Tomb" could be interpreted not as a burial place itself but rather as a metaphor for a dark place where cruel things happen and no one would ever wish to go.  Due to the somber and heavy atmosphere ("the heavy heat of the courtyard"),  it could just be a place where slaves are kept and where horror and dispair ("the air was motionless", "nobody attempted to...") are the main characters.

his tongue, i believe, was bloody and hanging out of his mouth.

he looked as if he were hungry.

he has several wolf-like qualities; a gray coat, sharp claws and yellow fangs.

those eyes made me feel, dear reader, like the end was near.

as i reached for a stick, he moved to the other side of the hill.

panting and hungry, he looked at me, a defenseless human and he snarled.

well i said my prayers, however, he simply turned and limped off.
