Dawn in the cradle of civilization, some 4,500 years ago…
The palace of the Old Kingdom is a mostly peaceful place. Well, mostly…
“Get OUT! I shall be adorned as a goddess, in the finest linens! Do you hear me, harlots?!”
“This feeble kingdom will burn… and my glorious new empire will rise from its ashes!”
“Such beauty, such… perfection… utterly wasted amongst these primitive commoners!
“What—? What is that?!”
