The next morning...

Knock.

Knock.

"Lady Maritza?"

A gentle voice drifted through my sleep.

It sounded distant, as though it were coming from underwater.

Knock.

"Lady Maritza?"

I frowned, forcing my heavy eyelids open.

"...Mmm..."

The ceiling above me slowly came into focus.

High Priest Anen stood beside the doorway, his kind face lined with concern.

"My apologies," I murmured, pushing myself upright. "I... overslept."

That had never happened before.

    The next morning...Knock.Knock."Lady Maritza?"A gentle voice drifted through my sleep.It sounded distant, as though it were coming from underwater.Knock."Lady Maritza?"I frowned, forcing my heavy eyelids open."...Mmm..."The ceiling above me slowly came into focus.High Priest Anen stood beside the doorway, his kind face lined with concern."My apologies," I murmured, pushing myself upright. "I... overslept."That had never happened before.Ever since arriving in Ancient Egypt, I'd always awakened before sunrise. Whether to gather herbs, prepare medicine, or simply enjoy the quiet morning air, I was always the first one awake.Not today.High Priest Anen offered me a gentle smile."It happens.""I suppose..." I let out a small laugh.Still feeling embarrassed, I swung my legs over the side of the bed.The moment my feet touched the floor, the room suddenly spun and everything tilted. My vision blurred and I instinctively grabbed the edge of the bed before I collapsed."Lady M

  • Queen of the Eternal Nile   Chapter 59

    The temple was unusually quiet that night.Moonlight poured through the small window of my room, painting silver patterns across the stone floor as a cool breeze drifted in from the Nile. Normally, I loved listening to the river at night, but today I was simply too exhausted to appreciate it.Every muscle in my body ached after spending nearly the entire day riding Snow.Who knew horseback riding could leave someone feeling like they had been tossed down a mountain?I let out a quiet groan as I stretched my sore shoulders before taking another sip of the warm ginger tea Aya had prepared for me earlier.The heat spread pleasantly through my body.I smiled to myself. "I'll definitel

    I groaned the moment I tried to lift my arm."Ow..."Every muscle in my body protested. Even for just sitting up felt like an impossible task.Who would've thought riding a horse could leave me feeling like I'd been trampled by an entire cavalry?"My legs... my back... my shoulders..." I rubbed my aching neck with a wince. "I don't think there's a single part of me that doesn't hurt."Despite the pain, I couldn't help laughing at myself. Yesterday was amazing. Ramose and Menes had spent nearly the entire morning teaching me how to ride. Well... attempting to teach me.I'd lost count of how many times I'd nearly slipped out of the saddle.

    The morning passed far more peacefully than the previous few days.Instead of gathering inside the temple halls, everyone met in the temple garden where a cool breeze drifted through the palm trees, making the discussion far more pleasant.Several scrolls were spread across a wide stone table while Ramose sketched rough maps of the western desert with a reed pen.I leaned over them curiously, trying to follow the routes he was drawing."So..." Ramose suddenly looked at me with a grin. "You've surprised us again."I blinked innocently. "I did?"He laughed after he saw my expression. "You always do."Menes nodded in agreement.

    Only then did I notice how strangely quiet the healing quarters had become.The room that had been bustling with hurried footsteps and anxious voices only moments ago had fallen completely silent.One by one, every healer, apprentice, and patient seemed to be looking toward the entrance.Confused, I slowly turned around and my heart nearly stopped immediately when I saw someone standing beneath the stone archway was none other than the Pharaoh Kharef.Beside him stood General Ramose, General Menes, and General Aziel and none of them spoke but they all simply watched me.How long had they been standing there?Heat immediately rushed to my cheeks.

  • Queen of the Eternal Nile   Chapter 55

    The sun had barely risen when I arrived at the Temple of Ra.Unlike the palace, which was already bustling with servants and officials before dawn, the temple welcomed the morning with peace.The cool air carried the sweet fragrance of incense as priests quietly swept the ancient stone courtyards. Birds perched atop towering sandstone columns, greeting the rising sun with cheerful songs while golden rays slowly chased away the last traces of night.I love mornings here, there are no shouting and no political meetings.Only prayers, gentle smiles, and the comforting feeling that everyone worked together with the same purpose.I had only just begun arranging the morning offerings when the peaceful atmosphere shattered.
