The Pharaoh of Egypt, Anmatre comes to his court room. He calls out a meeting. All his courtiers are there.Silence in the court room. If a pin fells then it will be heard.Pharaoh knows the time is worse. Political rage threatens Egypt. He must face the problem. With Nabtar, his chief minister he discussed about the matter. As a result the king was advised to call out this meeting.
They all think about how to get rid of this problem. No, the problem is not the war. It is the throne. Amun be merciful! If the Pharaoh dies in the war who will fill his place? It can not be left without Pharaoh.And if the Pharaoh dies, then who will lead and fight against the foreign force?
Everyone spoke. But no solution was good for the Pharaoh's ear. They show their love for the kingdom? Yes ,they show that in a sense.They love the power. The one to rule over Egypt. But Pharaoh would not let them. Why would he? Egypt will fall in worse hands. This is his land, the land which was given by his father to him to rule. The late Pharaoh told his son not to give the kingdom away. His son also took his advises as his duties.
So when it comes to the question of war and rulling of kingdom, Anmatre could not be tempted by the courtiers.
He decided to let it on those whe have to face the problem if the war breaks out. The people of Egypt, his beloved subjects.They have no temptation for power nor the throne. He understands well. He will let the people decide.
