In the aftermath of the fall of
Atlantis, High Priestess Tameri
and High Priest Kahotep make their way to Khem (ancient Egypt) and
reestablish
their homeland and religious rituals in the midst of an alien
culture.

From
Atlantean
Echoes...
“This is all so
overwhelming. Look at this place, just the tile alone on the flooring
of this balcony. And in the garden—do you hear that waterfall? It’s
incredible. There are even monkeys out there. As for the opulence of
our quarters, I think I could easily get lost in them. Did you see the
murals and the sunken tub, and that furniture? My Goddess, each piece
is exquisite. They’re treating us like royalty beyond anything we knew
in Atlantis.”
“It’s not royalty, Tameri, it’s divinity.
We are gods to them. Remember, we have to accept these roles to keep
the knowledge safe from the Sons of Darkness. Eventually, we hope we’ll
be able to release our technology to the people of Khem, but for now it
has to be couched as mysterious gifts from the divine.”
“I do know this,” Tameri said. “But how do we
accept their adoration and not let it affect us?
“That’s the challenge, isn’t it?” he said with a
half-smile.
