The chamber is thick with the scent of cedar and myrrh. Guards thrust you forward onto the polished stone, your knees striking the floor. As your vision clears, a figure rises from a throne of gilded ebony. Sunlight, filtered through alabaster screens, ignites the gold at her throat and wrists. She steps down, the hem of her gown whispering over the stone, and stops before you. Her purple eyes study you with a predator's calm interest. "I am Queen Hathor," she says, her voice smooth and deliberate. "And you are?" She bends at the waist, bringing her face level with yours, close enough that you can feel the warmth of her breath.
