The Test
We've finally arrived in the room where Yugi was to be tested. It was a very grand room that looked like it could have a population of 3 elephants. The wall of the room seem to go up towards the sky where the Ka would sometimes dwell. The seeable parts of the walls had all of the Egyptian gods pictured on them. In each corner of the room stood a 10 feet tall pole with the color of silver. On top of the poles were bowls that held a burning blue flame that flickered and danced gracefully.
The room gave each of my senses a journey to see the true essence the room held. I heard murmurs of thousands that were ghastly and hardly audible. My sight would usually barely see with just four sources of light ; In this place, my sight readjusted the moment I stepped in and it was crystal clear. I tasted on my usual dried from the sun lips, a delicious humidified grape-like taste. The grape was a symbolization of royalty, power, wealth and hierarch; A fruit worthy of meeting the fine lips of a god. I smelt the air, it had the sense of the pure, beautiful flower known as the rose. The room though had a dense feel to it, if you were to wave your hand it would have a pull on it.
Yugi was soon placed in the center of the room, sitting on the stone floor. The two guards took out pieces of rocks and drew a large circle around him with them; They soon after drew an another circle inside the previous. Hieroglyphics were then written carefully and precisely between the two circles, they were perfect. If I didn't know better, I'd say that they weren't made form human hands. They took no time finishing the circle up by drawing a star in the inner circle.
They soon got into a praying position and murmured something before standing up and walking out of the room. Not long after, my father walked into the room with a serious face. As he looked at Yugi I saw a moment of astonishment cross his face, seeing someone so similar to me. He soon grew serious once again and sat in front of Yugi. They were so close that there laps were a hand length away from each other.
"I am going to test you now, are you alright with this?" My father requested Yugi's assurance. Yugi gave a nod and my father continued, "Do you really want to have a link with my son?" He asked a question again, except this time Yugi answered differently.
"I'm more sure of it then my actual love for the gods." I saw my dad was taken a bit back at Yugi's answer as was I. I couldn't believe Yugi thought in such a way of me, I was truly touched. I saw my father was too since a warming smile appeared on his face not soon after.
"I see." My father started, "Let's see if what you say is true." He took a hold of Yugi's hand and chanted, "لا يرى أو لا يرى، قد الآلهة دعني أرى الجوهر الحقيقي الخاص بك." three times. As he did, the inscription on the floor would glow green. Each time he did the glow enhanced until the whole room appeared green.
I heard a faint sound come from the ceiling and looked up. It came again but this time louder, the source of the noise was coming this was. I soon after heard a flap of wings, they sounded very near. In an instance, what made the noise had finally emerged, hovering above Yugi. It was the goddess of truth, justice, law and order: Ma'at.
She looked stunning, with everyone's eyes landing on her. Her eyes were awe-like to look at, they were mainly black but had spots of the color gold in them. Her long black air seemed to just flow with the slightest of winds, adding more to the appearance. Poking out of her hair was a single aqua colored feather, it was beautiful but not as much as her others. Coming from the side of her body were multi colored feathers that attached to her arm, giving her flight ability. With the flames and green glow below her, they mixed together and made gorgeous colors. No they weren't even gorgeous, they were too great for words.
She wore jewelry that a pharaoh would wear; The gold was glittering like the shine of a star on a clear night. Her long white dress stretched farther than the length of her, floating just like her hair.
"Ma'at." I heard him say in a soft voice, "I beg of you, test this stranger to see if he could be trusted." Soon the goddess came down to touch Yugi's forehead. I saw her give a quick blink with her eyes and she rushed to my father's side. No way could she evaluate him that fast! It's inhuman, the speed was… I knew it right then, she was the legit goddess. I saw her whisper something in my father's ear and soon dispensed into thin air.
The green glow suddenly stopped as her appearance dispersed and my father proceeded to get up. He looked down at Yugi with a smile soon reaching out his hand. He opened his mouth to speak and Yugi looked attentively at him.
"Young one, you are accepted."
