Lion Head Mesa Men-nefer

Having ideas was no sign of a good leader. Many rulers were beloved. Many of them sought expansion. It was not a token of a great mind. And the princeguard wore his skepticism on his face, plain and open for Rashepses to see.

To his prince, Siatum bowed his head. 

Together. As they had always been.
