the death of Melody was jarring—but Toula made sure that her body was preserved, and all that was left was determine if she would added to the tomb of her sister, the Amiirad, or the once Pharaoh Makono. she would grieve the girl, and had contemplated for many days on this—
but recollected the visit of Ingram. calamity, were she not to be Pharaoh—calamity even perhaps to those who did not wish it. 
dinner was displayed prettily before herself and her soon-to-be husband on a stone plinth. @Rashepses—her betrothed! and there was still a spark of joy in her heart for this. that she had him. thanking the fellahin for their work, and smiling at how they had smartly set her placing nearer to him, knowing they two always drifted nearer (while still remaining proper, of course!), a new look passed over her features. 
the Gods… perhaps… They had a hand in this. her support of my sister… she made it quite clear. we had a visitor, some time ago—Ma’at revealed to him that if I were not to become Pharaoh, there would be great calamity, and she wondered if Melody might have been prepared to act on behalf of Ashikaga. not because her sister had asked it of her… but for her own loyalty to the Amiirad. the Gods protected both her, and Akashingo—
all while making them aware of another threat! while she mourned Melody, she could not help but feel some measure of gratitude for Their omnisciente nature. that They might have acted upon it. 
it seemed so senseless otherwise, and Melody… Toula felt she might weep again. it did not matter her aim, not now that she was dead. all Toula could recall was what she had known for certain, and seen in the Hemet—her goodness. and her love for Makono. Melody was one of the last few links Toula had that remained of her missing sister.
