Siptah was too young to know this grief, this... this anger. Satsu wasn't just dead. She'd been killed, murdered by one of their own. Who else could have gotten to her? Siptah no longer knew who to trust, and he'd taken up solitude. Today was his first day leaving his bedchambers. He brought with him two bone pieces, part of a game Belen had showed him. It was the only thing he could think to bring — he had no possessions.
He tucked them neatly with the rest of his mother's gifts, then gazed down at her body; already, she looked smaller. And the smell... but no. He needed to do this. This was his mother. Siptah sucked in a breath, then said silent prayers to all the Gods he knew. Whoever had done this would pay, in time.
