History[edit | edit source]
In 48 BCE, the Medjay Bayek traveled to the arena in search of Shadya's killer. There, he was reunited with his fellow Siwan and childhood friend Kensa. Together, the two named themselves the "Guardians of Siwa" and challenged the arena, rising through the ranks and eventually confronting the Gallic brothers, Diovicos and Viridovix.[2]
Upon defeating the brothers, Bayek learned that their patron Berenike, the Nomarch of Faiyum and a member of the Order of the Ancients known as "The Crocodile", was the one responsible for Shadya's death. Afterwards, Bayek left the arena to find and assassinate Berenike, leaving Kensa behind.[2]
Sometime thereafter, Bayek returned to the arena, where he again challenged the Gallic Brothers, as well as The Slaver, and defeated them.[1]
