Authour's note: this story is on temporary hiatus until further notice due to impending doom of writer's block. "She was not from this time. Royal blood coursing through her body. Her perfection fit for a goddess. She is a goddess, I her King and she my Queen..." No King is a King without his Queen. The soon to be Pharaoh of Upper Egypt needed to find himself a bride. With him being the only child of the current Pharaoh, he was expected to marry the princess from Lower Egypt therefore, joining the two lands which he would have control over. He would not marry her. She was not the one the gods were leading him to. He vowed that he would rule alone and if he dies before his rightful Queen arrives, he shall rise and time shall repeat itself and he will, with his Queen rule over Egypt! A vow made hundreds of years ago, told by the old to their grandchildren and by parents to their children. To most it was a myth, to some it was just a legend waiting to happen... But in this age? The 21st century? Watch the story unfold... A modern tale with an ancient twist... Pharaoh's Queen.
