Thebes, Ancient Egypt, Pharaonic Palace

Princess Sherine is in her room brushing her long and beautiful black hair

Someone then entered her room

The young woman had a big smile on her face when she saw the Medjay, who smiled tenderly 

" Rhufu " The Princess threw herself into the arms of the Medjay 

Rhufu was hugging her tenderly

After a while, he pulled away from her, before kissing her passionately

It was at the same time that Harkhuf, high priest and vizier of the Pharaoh, entered the room

" Harkhuf, what are you doing here ? Who authorized you to enter my room ?

- Please forgive me, Princess, but I am here by order of your Father ... " 

Rhufu, who didn't like Harkhuf and didn't trust him, stayed on his guard

Princess Sherine approached Harkhuf

" What's going on ? Is it serious ?

- Your Father asked me to send you a news ...

- A ne ... " The Princess couldn't finish her sentence since Harkhuf had taken advantage of her lack of attention and the fact that Rhufu couldn't see him and therefore intervene, to pierce her in the belly with his saber

" It's finally my time ... " 

The Princess fell back but Rhufu caught her before she hit the ground

" No no ... " The Medjay, tears in his eyes, hugged the love of his life against him, he was totally helpless " ... please my love, stay with me, don't leave me ... "  Tears ran down his cheeks and fell on those of the Princess

Sherine put her hand gently on Rhufu's cheek " I love you ...

- I love you too ... "

A smile appeared on the face of Princess Sherine and her hand fell

Rhufu burst into tears and pressed his face against Sherine's 

Harkhuf laughed frantically " And now it's Pharaoh's turn ! "

Rhufu kissed the love of his life one last time " Wait for me my love ... " The Medjay took his saber and attacked Harkhuf " Batard ! You will pay for that !! "

Alerted by the cries and noises, the Pharaoh and other Medjays rushed towards the room 

When they finally entered the room, what Pharaoh saw broke his heart

His beloved daughter and one of his Medjays were dead, murdered by his Vizier, the one he considered as his best friend

Harkhuf, who laughed frantically, was arrested by the Medjays 

"Let him be condemned to the Hom-Dai !!" Ordered the Pharaoh to the Medjays who held Harkhuf and who prevented him from fleeing 

Pharaoh approached the bodies of his daughter and Rhufu and fell on his knees, crying 

" Your Majesty ...

- Let them be mummified and buried together 

- But your Majesty ...

- They loved each other ! And I refuse to let them be separated !

- It will be done according to your wishes, Majesty "

Shayera woke up with a start and sweat

Again this dream thought the young woman, getting out of her bed and heading for the window

Shayera opened the window and took a deep breath of the fresh night air

The young woman admired Cairo, this city she loves so much, for a long time before going back to her bed

Why do I have this dream all the time and why the Princess looks like me she wondered, sitting on her bed

Shayera tied her long and beautiful black hair in a high ponytail and lay down before fixing the ceiling

What the young woman didn't know is that at the same time a young man named Ryu had the same dream and that he looked like Medjai Rhufu
