New update
Honestly... I can't believe that I still haven't gotten my computer back... How long does it take to fucking clean a laptop, seriously? I can't even... Also, my family pet just died today. So yeah, I had a great day. Well... at least I tackled every bit of missing scene that hasn't made it so far. The p...

Sneak peek ๐
My computer is still not back. It's pissing me off because the guys said it was going to be 1 week. That was exactly 1 week ago, and they haven't even looked at it yet. I know because I went into the shop today to ask about it ๐คฌ So I'm now borrowing my spouse's PC when I can, but that's really no...

The dates are not specified yet, so I'll just get back to you guys once I know more. Here is what I planned for May: 2nd, Friday: game update4th, Sunday: Tabiry specials, this will probably ...
April Q&A answers ๐ธ
This is a question for you! ๐ If you had to choose, which RO would you personally go for and why? (Either platonic or romantic is fine)I think this has been asked once before, so my answer will probably be similar :D Uhโฆ hard question. They all have many pros and cons going for them. I think I would get along the ...
New update
Small update, like I promised before. Gods I hate writing posts on my phone, so this will be brief, sorry ๐ The new content adds Tabiry's bathing scenes. There are variations for every origin, so all in all it's around 7000 words. I hope I'm gonna get my computer back soon early next week. Until then, I ...
Geography, foreign neighbors, and travel ๐งญ
I love geography. I could talk about it for ages, but I tried to keep it brief this time :) I hope you'll like it! And this one officially ends the currently planned lore posts, so I'm going to do a bit of questionary soon about what else you guys want to read about! โบ๏ธThe NileAs you probably all know, the ...
New update
This week has been going quite well. I'm still trying to keep myself to the new schedule. Now it's only 85% failing! Amazing! Anyway, I've added lots of different scenes all over the place. There are a few paths in the new scenes that aren't done yet. Tabiry's, the poly route, and the friendship rou...
Sneak peek ๐
I've been working on expanding some of the scenes and adding more choices to certain parts of the text, and I've got a really good idea for a future scene in Zaia's route too ๐ For now, here is a snippet from a scene that takes place after the group leaves Memphis to go to the next crystal location, but ...
Spring date specials ๐ธ
I really loved the scenarios you guys chose, and I couldn't wait to write them ๐ฅฐ Here are the winning scenes I paired up with the characters:Dance in a courtyard under the moonlight with Narmer. I chose this for him because otherwise he doesn't dance, so this would be a special occasion for him. He is also a...
New update
This week has been going better for the writing, in no small amount thanks to all the encouragement I got from my friends and all of you guys โบ๏ธ I think the new daily schedule I've been trying to keep myself to will work as well... in time. It will probably take a while to get used to. Anyway, this new update h...
Sneak peek ๐
I was going to take my laptop for a cleaning this week, but there is simply too much work to be done, so it will have to stay absolutely filthy for another week ๐ Anyway, the new update is shaping up nicely. I'm trying to keep to a better daily writing schedule. I'm only 90% failing at it, which is nice. Thi...
Clothing, fashion, makeup, and trends ๐งต
I've been waiting for this lore post because I have a GREAT book full of illustrations of clothes, patterns, and everyday objects throughout the ages, starting from Ancient Egypt, until the late 1800s with the illustrations of Friedrich Hottenroth. The original book was published in 1884 and is called Trachten (it&...

New update
This week has been very mentally slow for me. I didn't feel very good about my writing, so progress has been a lot more sluggish than usual. Still, I think I managed to get back on track and I got some (hopefully) really good ideas for later ๐What's new: Around 13 000 words added to the demoThere are some ex...
Sneak peek ๐
Zaia romancers, you are in luck, because our beloved spirit will return briefly for a few scenes, before the true reunion that you'll have to wait for a little bit longer. Here is a snippet from the extra scene that's coming in the Friday update: ---You feel a hazy, blurry sky around you, and an infinite pool u...
Poll for spring date scenarios ๐บ
Hey, it's almost spring! I look out the window and it's only mildly freezing, with barren trees and a barren wasteland! So inspiring. Joke aside, it's time to vote on your favorite ideas for the spring dates that are coming next week, on the 13th ๐ They will still be set mostly in the crushing stage, aro...

The weirdest boy has arrived. I finished him yesterday night. Ebo's coming next ๐ฅฐ
March Q&A answers
Which of the cast do you think would choose/be capable of remaining as spirits after they die?Good questionโฆ I think none of them, but this would also depend on what kind of outcome you'll get at the end of the story. Those who live at least a relatively happy life, almost never linger long enough to be able to d...
New update
It's a small update this week, around 7000 new words and a few scenes from where the last one left off because I was sick for a few days. Qenna's fate is partiallyrevealed, and Petmes also makes an appearance ๐ There is a small extra conversation with him if you are on Narmer's or Qenna's route. Next...
Sneak peek ๐
I've been a bit sick this week, but I'm slowly working through the next scenes. There will be some good news and some bad news coming in this next update. I think I'm also going to bring Petmes back for a small scene because he can give some good insight into the demon situation ๐งHere is a snippet from t...
Kusai meeting 5 years ago
Haaahhhh I got a bit carried away with this one because I've been waiting since Chapter 1 to write this ๐ ๐ญ It's around 4000 words and it describes a (romanced) noble MC's first meeting with Narmer that happened in Kusai during a celebration. It left a lasting impression on Narmer. Most of it is writte...
Updated character sheets ๐๐บ
Be careful, they are still spoilery, especially if you haven't read the new updates yet!I revealed more info from the old sheets based on story progress, and also added the birthdays of the characters โจ
New update
The first scenes of Chapter 5 are here after that gigantic shitshow! ๐ฅณ๐๐ซถ It's around 14 000 extra words. I think I will edit some of these scenes a bit more later and maybe add more content to the friendship route, but for now, here it is! If you find any errors or typos or something else, please shoot a m...
Sneak peek ๐
I started working on the Chapter 5 scenes this week. There is not much written yet because I spent a day flying yesterday, but I used the hours of soul-crushing boredom on the plane to plan out the new chapter and AAAHHH it's looking out to be so exciting!!! ๐ซข๐ซข๐ซขHere is the first scene. I know you're al...
Food and agriculture
Here is the next lore post, and, good news! I finally discovered that I can paste pictures into the text! Yes, I know, took me long enough. What the hell did people even eat such a long time ago?Short answer: very similar things that we eat today. With a few differences, of course.The staple foods of Ancient Egyptians ...
New update
Lots of edits and fixes this week ๐ค There isn't a lot of new content, but I added the friendship routes to chapter 4, and a few other, smaller scenes all over the place that were still missing. Also, all saves are going to break now.What's new:The demo has grown with around 10k wordsThe friendship routes are...
Zaia and Ahmose extra scenes โค๏ธ
So, in the poll, Zaia's and Ahmose's scenes won with the exact same amount of votes, so I made 1-1 scene for each :DI chose the childhood scene with Ahmose, which is a short, slightly bittersweet scene from 13 years ago. It can be played with an MC of any origin.Zaia's scene is their POV from when they retu...
New update
Thanks for waiting! This took a bit longer than I expected, but here are the rest of the routes to Chapter 4!!! Well, except for the friendship routes. Today afternoon, I realized that I created a plot hole in the friendship routes with the way the characters show up in different places, so I ended up scrapping them. N...
Sneak peek ๐
Here is a snippet from Narmer's first scene right after the route choice, after MC and your chosen RO fall down a chute. The first scenes here are going to be similar, but then you will take a quite different path through the pyramid than what the MCs with Qenna or Zaia took ๐---"I think I fell on you a few ...
