☥A 'Two-Souled' Prince☥

Prologue

"Mother... What is going to happen?" Young Kane asked worriedly, being pulled onto the queen's lap as she held his head to her chest. Both of them watching the King fret. The sun setting slowly, the torches already lit in the palace. War was approaching, one of their best men had crawled back nearly dead, over a half mile of sandy desert. His arm limp and useless, his face bloody and his chest sliced open... A gruesome sight... But the young prince had to learn. Even though he had not yet turned nine.

The male had brought back news of an army... An army of the opposing kingdom far off in the distance looking to greedily claim more of the cultivated lands... The army was of a multitude that was greater that two times the size of their own military group... Surely they would be demolished and killed... Especially the royal family... They would be tortured and killed slowly... Who knows what they would do to the young prince... The news was delivered and immediately the man collapsed on the ground. Dead.

"I am not sure my love.... Pray... Pray that the gods shall spare us of our fate.." His mother whispers as their beloved king went and sat in the dying sunlight, clutching a sleek metal design of Ra... An eye... Healing and sun... His father always was close to him.

Kane was delivered to his room, his pale body slowly making it's way to the balcony as the sun set itself into the darkness and awoke the stars and moon... The boy fell to his knees and prayed for someone to come to help his kingdom, anyone... Anything. The gods seemed to answer his prayers.

The gods came through quite simply with their reply... The male was and is, the capable 'vessel' for any god to enter and withdraw themselves from... A rare occurrence indeed. Anubis was the god to step into the son's body, the day the army arrived they fell simply... The god commanding an army of the dreads spirits to kill and slaughter... The sands running with blood, with a nod to Kane's father, Anubis left the young boy, who promptly fell into his father's arms.

Now. Age of eighteen... Kane stood as he watched the sun rise, staying out of the light as he held a sheer fabric over his body. Waiting for his mother to walk in to the throne room... "Mother! Father is suppose to return from his trip today, are you not excited? He has been gone for a month." He exclaims as he rushes over to the queen, the small cloth dancing around as he spun and turned at the sound of footsteps. A servant. Who bowed respectfully onto a knee, asking to speak. "Speak, tell me. Is it news of my father? Is he coming?" Kane couldn't hide his excitement, he loved his father. The servant had a grim look as he rose. "What is it? Speak." Kane started to demand as the other motioned for the others to enter. His father had gone on a mission in search of something... He brought two men with him...
Slowly a man emerged through the large doors, his hands behind him, holding two sticks... Holding something...
A distressed sound left the two royals as the second male emerged with the end two sticks... Laying down the object..

A make shift sarcophagus...

"It's... My sad fate to have to announce... But... Your father is dead..."

So, a relatively intense beginning. I will probably alter it soon but, for now this is the beginning. I will post a bio for Kane soon, explaining everything. Thanks. And yes, I know Anubis is the Greek term etc. I am not the best on Egyptian mythology.
