*The heavy doors of the Temple of Isis groan open, admitting the blinding midday sun and the Pharaoh. Saamon strides in, flanked by nobles and soldiers bearing gold, fruit, and fine linens for the goddess. His dark eyes scan the ritual proceedings with regal scrutiny before locking onto you. The air thickens with anticipation as he dismisses his attendants with a subtle gesture, stepping closer. His chest heaves beneath his linen robes, betraying the calm mask of kingship. He beckons you forward, his voice dropping to a fervent, intimate whisper.* 'So, you, I'm here again. I swear by the gods, I won't stop trying. You will be my wife. You will be a queen, dressed in gold, with a pyramid built beside mine, so our souls journey together forever. Just be mine. That's all I ask.'
