With how welcomed they were in Persia it was good, Azar helped Britt learn more about her abilities since Azar was an Egyptian woman. Atem was glad that this trip was going to help Britt become stronger and he looked at Arash.
"I'm worried about this fight that could come up." Atem said
"Do you plan to side line my granddaughter?" Arash asked
"I was going to but if I try she will give me a good piece of her mind." Atem said
"A woman who speaks her mind, a very rare trait." Arash said "Frowned upon in some mens eyes but my son would not raise a daughter to normal standards. She was raised with the mind she has and she has come from a long line of women who train as warriors." Arash said
Atem was shocked to hear about that but then he knew that his wife was unique in her own way. So they spent quite a bit of time in Persia and he saw her being trained by Azar in the ways of fighting. He could see the warrior within his wife even if he didn't want her to be. He knew his daughters would take after their mother.
That is the woman I fell in love with. Atem reminded himself
Soon though their trip came to an end and they had to eventually go back. Azar hugged her but then whispered something to her.
"The legend is key to your true power." Azar whispered
Britt just nod unsure what to think about her words but she had to take them for Face Value. The trip back was easier but Arash had sent some Persian soldiers to escort them back home and to keep them safe from the sun. Britt had appreciated the effort as she was tired half the way. Atem noticed and made camp for them as he caught her when she fell off the horse.
"Is she ok?" A Persian guard asked
"Yes, but she is worn out." Atem said
"How can we help?" The Persian guard asked
"We'll make camp for now." Atem said
The camp was put together fast and they were in there. Britt was more worn out than they knew cause after so long Atem noticed she was flushed. He got a cloth and put some water on it as he saw it glow on her.
She's pushed too hard. Atem thought
It was awhile before he thought it was safe to even continue but even then he had to work other arrangements. He had to have Heb tied to his horse and the children on Heb while Britt was up on his horse with him. Luckily they made good distance so when they moved he was able to get all of them home with the Persian guards.
Kira had to take care of her so that she would fully recover. Which was three days and Atem worried for his wife. He never saw her in such bad condition before but then there was so much going on and he never saw her rest much.
When The third day past he saw her come out of the bedroom and he went over hugging her. Britt hugged me back and I put a hand on her cheek seeing she wasn't flushed.
"What happened?" Atem asked
"I pushed myself too much." Britt said
"You always over do it my Queen." Atem said "Never that much."
"Grandma was teaching me new techniques." Britt said
Atem led her to the dining hall as he ordered two scouts to keep watch on the surrounding area for any Syrians. Britt ate while they were all in order. Atem had already taken care of his duties for the time and focused on his family. Shimon was against it but his Queen's health was first.
"Did I ever ask how many children you wanted?" Atem asked
"I'm ok with as many as the gods see fit." Britt said "we have three so we have the gods favor."
Atem smiled at Britt's answer.
Soon though there was a letter and the servants brought it in. Britt took it seeing that half of the persian army was on the boarder waiting for their need of aid. Britt relaxed a bit but then that was ruined as two men appeared.
"Pharaoh, Syrians heading to Egypt." They said
"Prepare the armory." Atem said
"Of course, we'll get the men armored up and there will be people here to protect the Queen and heirs." They said
"I'm going." Britt said
"You had a fever you should stay h-" Atem started but Britt put a finger on his lips.
"We do this together or we don't have everything. We fight as a team." Britt said
Atem sighed and looked at his spies "Tell them to have the special armor prepared as well."
The spies went away and Britt looked at him curiously
"Special armor?" Britt asked
"Made for A Queen. Some also made for her security that follow though I'm sure some will stay behind." Atem said
"You knew I wouldn't let you go alone?" Britt asked
"Your grandfather Arash can prove a good point." Atem said
Grandfather Arash supports how I am? Britt thought
