Prologue
Seth looked out into the dark desert night while standing on the balcony of his palace quarters. He let out a long sigh.
What a beautiful star filled night sky. The Gods have been kind to give such a wonderful scene to me tonight.
He let out a long yawn.
"Bored cousin?"
Seth turned around to see his cousin, Pharaoh Atem walking up to him.
"No, just a bit tired." Seth gave a slight bow.
Atem stood next to Seth on the balcony's edge. "Well, don't stay up too late. We have much business to attend to tomorrow."
"Yes, we get to argue with your general for the hundredth time." Seth said with slight annoyance.
Atem laughed. "Yes…that's one way of putting it."
"Well, if you'll excuse me Pharaoh, I will be retiring for the night." Seth bowed once again.
Atem bowed back slightly. "Very well. See you tomorrow Priest Seth."
Atem walked off the balcony and left Seth's quarters.
Seth was once again alone.
Great, another five hour long argument with the Pharaoh's general about getting more slaves to build the Pharaoh's pyramid. It will be the same discussion as before. General Pegasus will 'demand' we obtain more slaves to build Atem's pyramid more quickly and Atem will deny the suggestion. I can see this as another waste of my time. However, as Atem's advisor and high priest, I'm stuck being there. Curse that general and his constant cruelty to the slaves.
Seth sighed heavily. He took one last look at the sky and then walked into his quarters. He changed into his night robes and plopped down on his soft bed.
He closed his eyes and slowly drifted off into a deep slumber.
Kisara had to keep completely silent. If she didn't, then they'd find her and she would go back to scrubbing floors, baking bread and doing other odd jobs that her masters would always dream up. These, the work of a slave. Something she didn't want to be any longer.
She was hiding under a parked chariot. She could hear her master and his wife calling out for her, but she kept her breath calm and quiet.
Kisara closed her eyes and thought of being free. The thought alone made her smile with joy. A feeling she never thought was possible.
"Kisara!" Her master called out.
"If you don't get back here, you're a dead girl, you hear?!" The master's wife yelled out.
Kisara remained still. I'm never going back to that. Never!
Her pale hair began to fall down in front of her blue eyes. She quickly moved her hair back.
Kisara couldn't hear her masters any longer.
May be they gave up?
She looked around from all sides of her hiding spot, but saw nothing but the darkness of the night.
She let out a soft sigh then crawled out from under the horse chariot. Then she took off running. She had no idea where she was headed, but it was going to be better than this existence.
I'm free…
Kisara smiled as she ran as fast as her legs could take her.
