seventy-first - Senmut - February 03, 2024
if the lotus remembers the sun, then Ra has made you His touch.
if the desert remembers rain, then Tefnut has given you Her kiss.
i am a lotus! i am the desert!
and my memories have not dimmed, nor have i forgotten any part. i held you, beloved. i drank life from your lips. your voice is pomegranate wine and i am drunk.
senmut, erpa-ha, to the ear alone of the hemet @Nazli
RE: seventy-first - Nazli - March 23, 2024
i look for you in the stars every night,
i dance for Nwt and my heart splits in two—for her, for you!
the sea comes to me in my dreams;
i wake with salt upon my tongue,
the voice of the sea sings across muat-riya,
and when Ra graces me with his touch, it is you that i feel.
you are my heart, you are my home.
nazli, hemet, in reply.

my dearest sister in the gods,
from Ra's pinnacle atop akashingo, i will look for your dancing. i will look for the sound of your steps. the fragrance of salt chases my dreams.
my longing; hear it; the wind carries my love.
the spring is coming. there is a rite, to be done among first flowers and beside water. to be witnessed, high priest and high priestess, as one.
perhaps the gods call. write to me again, nazli, lotus of muat-riya.
RE: seventy-first - Nazli - March 27, 2024
i seek blessings for
the kingdom of Pharaoh Toula, every evening.
for Akashingo,
for Muat-Riya,
and all that will flourish through Her.
when i dance
i dance for the Great Goddess,
but i do not dance alone;
your prayers
are all that i hear
—singing between the starlight.
may the Upper and the Lower kingdoms be blessed!
if the Gods call, we shall answer together.
my Senmut.

i write with a heart of myrrh and starlight in my grasp.
pharaoh has need of me to come to muat-riya. there are things now to be handled in the red kingdom, but soon i shall come to you, nazli, my fair sister in the gods.
your dance is honey upon the halls of my soul;
surely even the gods see how you are molded from the moon's very silver.
our answer shall be as one.

in reference to nazli's nearby birth thread
these are the words of fellahin, of palace muat-riya.
a summons to senmut. an invitation to the temple.
it is urgent, but not so urgent to put aside your goals upon the mountain — these pursuits of akashingo.
come soon.
