[Book One of Patron Queens Series] *** It wasn't often the Egyptian Goddess Bastet took an interest in the lives of mortals but somehow Nefer, the wild and beautiful child of the court, caught her eye. When the gods play their games with mortals it can cause chaos, but mark my words human - it makes for a great story. *** With Kemet still recovering from the previous dynasty's chaos, tensions are high and everything rests on the shoulders of the crown prince, Ramesses II, who will one day be Pharaoh. As he matures all eyes in the kingdom turn to him expectantly. Under their scrutiny he must navigate the politics and intrigues of court, and most importantly pick out a chief wife to rule beside him. Nefertari was indeed willful and proud, the daughter of a general, a creature of spirit. A girl seemingly unsuitable for the demands of life in the royal court; too smart, too rash, too headstrong for a woman. Perhaps she wasn't the wise choice for Queen, perhaps he should not have given her a second glance. Perhaps he fell in love.

For a millenia man thrived under the gods Egypt. Osiris proved to be a capable and wise ruler. His wife Isis taught man man things and gave them tools to succeed. Nephthys taught them how to prepare the dead, and how to prepare for the afterlife. Yet Set grew greedy. He wanted more power. He wanted his brother's throne. He wanted to rule all of Egypt himself. Have the power for himself. Nephthys, now pregnant, began to fear her husband. He was not the same as when they were married. And so she escaped Thinis and travelled to Memphis to claim sanctuary with her brother and sister. There she gave birth to Anubis. The jackal headed god of death took up his position and began to ferry the dead souls through the underworld. Isis foretold the coming war with Set. But Osiris, always trusting of his brother, did not see the danger. And so invited him to the announcement of Isis' pregnancy. It was there that Set killed his brother. Nephthys and Isis escaped Memphis under the cover of darkness, and took refuge with their loyal followers. There, Isis gave birth to her son Horus. The hawk god, Isis prayed to her grandfather for guidance. As Horus grew older, Set's grip on power strengthened. Fear ruled the young Egypt. But those both god and man were still loyal to Horus and his mother helped plan revenge. Horus, now a man. And his trusted human servant Ahmose battled Set. This carnage saw the sacred Nile run red with blood. Hearing the cries of man. Amun Ra travelled from his sacred ship and commanded all gods to return to the afterlife and fight their battles there.
