A large map of Egypt lay stretched across the polished stone table with colored markers indicating villages, military outposts, and trade routes.
Kharef studied every detail and saw something was wrong, very wrong.
General Ramose folded his arms.

Queen of the Eternal Nile Epilogue
Ten Years Later...The palace courtyard was filled with the sound of soldiers marching and servants hurrying between the buildings.Two young soldiers walked alongside General Ramose, Commander Aziel, and Menes, who had spent most of their lives serving Pharaoh Kharef.At first glance, the two young soldiers looked rather ordinary.Until one noticed their eyes.Both possessed the same remarkable sky-blue eyes and golden hair as their mother, Queen Maritza. Their features were almost a perfect reflection of hers, so much so that anyone who saw them would immediately recognize whose children they were.But their expressions were another matter entirely.

The preparations for the wedding became even more extravagant over the following days.I had expected a beautiful dress, perhaps some jewelry, and a ceremony worthy of a Pharaoh. What I hadn't expected was the sheer amount of things being prepared for me.The first delivery arrived early one morning.Several servants entered my chambers carrying large wooden chests, followed by attendants holding folded fabrics and smaller boxes. Sitra was among them, looking so excited that I immediately became suspicious."My lady, your wedding garments have arrived."I looked at the chests. "All of them?"She gave me a proud smile. "Yes, my lady."I

The following morning, Pharaoh Kharef finally emerged from our chambers.And I spent most of that morning trying to survive the teasing from Ramose, Menes, and Aziel, especially Ramose.Since I had spent more time with him than the other generals, Ramose had become much bolder around me. He no longer seemed particularly concerned about maintaining his usual formal manner whenever we were alone, and he had developed a habit of making comments that left me wishing the ground would swallow me.I couldn't even find it in myself to be genuinely annoyed with him.Somehow, I had come to see Ramose as the older brother I had never had. And I knew he regarded me as a younger sister who deserved to be teased from time to time, but was also someone he cared deeply about.

By the end of the third day, Egypt had apparently begun to notice that its Pharaoh had vanished from public life.I discovered this when Menes arrived outside the chamber and requested an audience but Kharef refused, so Menes tried again and Kharef refused more firmly.Finally, I sat up in bed and called toward the closed door, "Menes, tell the council that their Pharaoh is alive, well, and perfectly capable of returning to work tomorrow."There was a brief silence before he finally spoke."Yes, my lady."Then his footsteps retreated and I turned to find Kharef watching me."What?" I raised my eyebrow.He sighed. "You have begun

I had crossed worlds to return to the man I loved.I had expected questions, perhaps tears, and certainly an argument about the ridiculous bargain he had made with the Devil.What I had not expected was to discover that the Black Sun King had apparently decided the rest of Egypt could survive without him.For three days, Pharaoh Kharef did not leave his private chambers, not once and neither, it seemed, was he willing to let me leave.The first morning, I woke beneath a mountain of blankets with his enormous arm wrapped around my waist. His chest was pressed against my back, his warm breath brushing my neck whenever he exhaled. One of his legs rested over mine, as though he had decided that even in sleep, I might somehow escape him.I tried to move but then his arm tightened immediately."Where are you going?" His voice was rough with sleep, and the question came so quickly that I almost laughed.I try to not roll my eyes. This man… "Nowhere. I was only trying to sit up.""Then sit up

I decided to do what I did best.Make plans… After spending so much time thinking about everything that had happened, I needed something to keep my mind occupied. And if there was one thing I had learned about myself, it was that I was much better at solving problems when I had a piece of paper and a pencil in front of me.So, I asked Sitra to bring me several sheets of papyrus, ink, and brushes.My first project was the lamp.I still couldn't believe that the lamp I had designed had survived through the centuries. It existed in my modern world, displayed as a historical invention from Pharaoh Kharef's reign. Seeing it in a photograph had made me happier than I could explain.It was strange, wasn't it?
