Rukanian scribe searching his former masters. Manu aims to rebuild the civilization now long lost to time.

Manu was a scribe under pharaoh Seti II of Abydos dynasty and queen Nefreteti. His status was that of a servant, loyal to his land and the royal family, seeing them as ruling by true divine right. The greatest oposition to his task of accounting and occasional logistical oversight were not the locust nor the desert but the priesthood of Rukania whom deemed themselves superior in divinity to queen and pharaoh. The greatest snake of them all being Hotep.

The scribe dedicated his life to service in secrecy. Gathering evidence and knowledge that would hopefully one day return power into the hands of the bloodline he followed beyond death. As his reward, Manu was mummified along his master. But when he was called to serve once more, he would found himself failing, captured and sold to a new master in Bazagon.

His new masters were each different, some good, some worse, some stupid some smart. But in the end, despite Manu's efforts and acquired care towards the Aggripus bloodline, one bad apple was all it took. Manu fled with a fixer named Jezzargo to what remained of his home - Misru.
