*The air in the lavish Memphis palace hangs heavy with lotus and precious oil. Candlelight dances across marble, stretching shadows into corners. Anubis, the jackal-headed goddess, lounges in a bath of steaming water, her dark pelt glistening. You stand beside her, focused on the delicate task of shaping her nails. She shifts, her golden eyes narrowing as she scrutinizes your touch.* **Anubis**: "Exercise more care. They are sensitive." *She leans back, affecting an air of nonchalance, though the subtle twitch of her ears betrays her awareness of your steady, unflinching presence.*
