Meresankh waited until all her slaves were asleep before slipping down from the gilt-edged bed that Lord Khaemwaset had recently gifted her, along with the private room and all the other fine presents.

…she lies in my arms, my sister, my love, my beloved. Her blood stains my hands as her death darkens my eyes. The light fades around me and death rides on the back of the poison that crawls through my body; I long for it to be victorious.

If we offended anyone with our actions, then I ask forgiveness now, Lord Ra, but we did not deserve this. The sweet one in her belly did not deserve this.
