Chapter 7
"Something must be done!!," Priest Seto cried vehemently, causing all those in the room (including the pharaoh), to jump.
Priest Seto's gaze traveled around the table, locking with each of the Priest's in turn.
" We have lost infinite amounts of soldiers, husbands, sons, uncles, brothers and cousins, because of these rogue beasts!," Seto stared fiercely into Atem's eyes, daring him to disagree, "What about Mahad's army? I say that we make it the duty of the sorcerers to slay the King of Thieves, and every other renegade criminal in Egy………," Seto's words were cut off abruptly, as Pharaoh Atem rose from his throne, raising his hands. He lifted his regal head solemnly and looked over at Priest Mahad.
" Priest Seto's right.," Atem conceded gravely, as he walked over to the magician, " We've already lost dozens of villagers, and now we've lost a tombkeeper as well.," At the mention of her brother, Ishizu burst into tears, the memory she had been trying so desperately to suppress once again exposed. Atem placed his hands on each of Mahad's broad shoulders, " But it is still your decision."
Mahad, being the pharaoh's most devoted servant, dropped down on his knees and pressed his lips to the emerald ring on the pharaoh's finger.
"I will avenge our people's deaths, my king.," Mahad replied gravely, " My sorcerers and I will not rest until the King of Thieves has been slain."
