The people of Egypt knew better than to speak her name without reverence. Deep within the twisting Egypt , where time bent and shadows danced, she lived like a whispered dreamâhis dream.
The throne of Egypt is meant for one, but Y/Nâs heart belongs to a secret no one must know. Two sisters fight for the crown, and a forbidden love could tip the scales. Royal duty clashes with desire as secrets, betrayal, and dangerous ambition threaten to tear the palace â and Y/Nâs life â apart.
From an outside perspective, two gods from different pantheons teaming together would be a good idea. For Carter and yn, it wasnât. Kronos, the Greek Titan of time, and Apophis, the Egyptian god of chaos and darkness, needed the two out of the way. Using a power, that no one knew he could even use, Kronos had trapped Carter and yn in Ancient Egypt. Great. Carter was a bit hesitant to work with a Greek after working with Percy. Heâs seen how⊠unique the Greeks can be. But, he gave them a chance. Carter and yn woke up a few miles away from the city of Memphis, Egypt. Waking up in the scorching heat with sand in his eyes wasnât exactly his favorite part of this so far.
In a kingdom inspired by Ancient Egypt, a ruthless king ruled with cruelty and fear, yet his daughter was the very oppositeâsoft-spoken, luminous, and blessed with gentle magic that soothed pain and comforted even the enemies dragged before the throne. Unknown to most, her life was bound to a sacred golden amulet hidden within the palace; the object pulsed with ancient power, keeping her strength radiant and her magic alive, but if it were ever broken, her body would wither and her light would fade. Though her father waged wars without mercy, she secretly healed wounded soldiers from both sides, whispering peace where there was hatred. When a noble king from a distant land came seeking alliance, he expected to meet a tyrantâs daughter, but instead found a compassionate soul whose beauty was matched only by her kindness. He fell deeply in love with her tender heart and vowed not only to win her hand, but to protect the fragile object that held her lifeâknowing that in safeguarding her, he safeguarded the only hope of gentleness in a kingdom ruled by iron.
