Summary
“Gods can still be lost, can't they?” Your eyes reopen, lids heavy. “Exiled. Disgraced. Forgotten.”
Slavery has seen you branded, cursed. Freedom has seen you rebirthed, blessed, and soon to be redeemed. With the ankh as your mark of self-reclamation—seared irreparably into your flesh—you will see that redemption made true. As a slave no longer, seeking to establish your worth, such will be proven through newfound devotion, through bringing justice upon those who deserve it, through learning how to protect yourself, and most of all, through realizing and finally understanding how to truly protect the innocents of Egypt. But through life and death, through the waking world and dark Duat, through holy Heliopolis, too, you will see your faith restored in a new god, will find your divine calling as a devotee, a herald, a protector…
…as simply being his, and something—someone—more.

Summary
“This one…” he decides; his thumb presses down, and he watches as your lips part. This one…
His eyes are not blue.
Upon arrival within the palace study, it’s such an inconsequential trait to note, but it’s your first and only thought when Seth’s gaze catches yours from behind his desk. There’s only red. The same red you’ve seen splattered on walls and floors, on thin linen, on the dusty coats of camels, fleeing in the firelight of burning adobes and palmwood. Red. Smeared on skin and torn flesh, dripping down the murals of desecrated temples, drenching the blades of caravan khopeshes. His hair. Red. His lashes. Red. His brows. Red. Conjured sand hisses, taking the form of a sha upon his head, but you will not give him the satisfaction of your visible submission. You will not give him the chance to see and recognize the fear that fogs your gaze.
Note: Ib Thi̯(j) — the heart is astray…damaged.

Summary
"Sweet Anput," said Isis, not even adorned by her proud diadem. "I can't deny your heart its chance to bloom, but…"
The palace garden is not a far enough journey from the pergola that allows you to mull over the near-past for a moment longer. Fingers still entwined with Anubis', you find yourself passing through the garden entrance, disturbing the wading birds that once took solace in the coolness of shallow pondwater. Ripples are left in their hurried wake. Little wings flutter, departing, finding refuge in the fruit trees as if to make way for your and Anubis' shared approach; already unified in name and heart, quietly demanding of the spaces you enter as one. Only at the edge of the pond, now standing together, do you will your hand to slip from the secure warmth of Anubis' in favor of crouching low, closer to that sun-blinding gleam of still water.
“Anubis…will you sit with me?”

Summary
Anubis stares into your eyes—sees the new unknown within, a goddess reborn, divinely detached…cold—and dreads the truth: “Have I lost you again?”
Centuries ago, for the first time, Anubis lost a piece of his heart…swept away, stolen, among the fruit trees and tall palms of the palace gardens; the culprit was your smile. He lost another piece centuries after that, when his father, the tyrannical Seth, new King of Egypt and the God Supreme, banished you—the keeper of his son's whole heart—from Heliopolis in a fit of blind rage against Osiris' legacy. In the wake of Seth's trial before the Ennead, Anubis lost another piece upon learning the truth, soon escorted from the divine court by Khnum before his curse erupted, and he was left to writhe, retching death upon the ground; cursed, convulsing, dying, dying, dying—‘I don’t want to die,’ he cried—and Osiris, listening from Duat, promised Anubis his escape, eternal life, ascension…godhood.
Even as a new Egyptian deity, Anubis' heart was lost…until the day he found it again, whole: you.
