Dialogue
Introduction
- Moutnefert: Do you want to play another game?
- Nefertari the younger: We have to wait for Baba. He promised he would play also.
- Moutnefert: And he promised to tell us of "Los Ageles," where they make stars!
- Nefertari the younger: They must have powerful gods in Lost Angels.
- Moutemouia: I really don't think father will have time to tell you stories or play games of Senet.
- Moutemouia: There are more important things happening.
- Nefertari the younger: What's more important than spending time with us?
- Moutnefert: Or telling us of his travels?
- Moutnefert: As long as we stay together, says father, everything will be okay.
- Moutemouia: He tells us what we need to hear,
- Moutemouia: so that we will fulfill this "destiny" that we had no say in.
- Moutemouia: (to Nefertari the younger) Nefertari, he plays games with you so that you will stay happy and protect the animals.
- Moutemouia: And he tells your sister stories of foreign lands so she can feel the joy of travelling without ever going anywhere.
- Nefertari the younger: What does he do for you then?
- Moutemouia: He leaves me alone.
- Moutemouia: Now the Hand of Aten are making sacrifices to the darkness and rousing the dead,
- Moutemouia: and our powers are waning.
- Moutemouia: Father's perfect family is coming apart at the seams, and he must try and mend it.
- Nefertari the younger: I miss father.
- Moutnefert: He'll be here soon, I promise.
- Moutemouia: You're making promises to a child that you'll never be able to keep.
- Moutemouia: Take it from me, you'll hate yourself for that some day.

Report

The Sentinels can no longer fulfill their purpose. Perhaps their journey has come to an end. Or perhaps their journey has changed, like all things change.
The cultists crawl out of the sand like beetles, and they call upon the ancient souls released from their sarcophagi. It is history repeating itself.
It will fall upon us to ensure it does not deviate from its intended path. Forgotten kings like Smenkhkare should remain just that: forgotten.

Trust it to the ancient Egyptians to leave a bad omen in every sarcophagus. And to completely lose the plot when those omens come back to haunt them.
Keeping these cultists' numbers under control seems like a game of whack-a-mole, but you're a trooper to keep swinging that hammer. Let's just hope that the prize at the end doesn't suck.
Oh, and Smenkhkare was a total wuss back in his glory days, so I'm not surprised he got his brain eaten by these lunatics.
Fun fact: A Senet board consists of a grid of thirty squares, arranged in rows of ten. I hope you're taking notes. I study these things just for you.

The older sister is right: they really have more important things to do than diddle around with arcane board games.
Consequently, we should endeavour to pick up the mantle and do the work for them. I applaud your commitment to this cause even if the whole affair appears positively sisyphean.
The rise of Smenkhkare proves that Akhenaten was not the only one in the family stained by the dark disease. Let's try to make the family reunion swift.
