The Myths of the Pharaohs were stelae situated in the Egyptian afterlives of Aaru, Aten, Heb Sed, and the Duat. With each region containing four to be found, each of the stelae led the individual to a site containing a treasure belonging to one of the pharaohs Akhenaten, Nefertiti, Ramesses II, or Tutankhamun. In 38 BCE, the Hidden One Bayek of Siwa found the stelae during his time in each afterlife, and was able to solve the puzzles surrounding the stelae and recovered the treasures.[1]

Aaru[edit | edit source]
Location: Leaning Statue
Mistress of the Two Lands, mother of the six daughters. Beside not beneath the right arm of the Sole God. Strike down the enemies of faith.
Location: Gate of Aaru
At last, He lies, silent, guarded. Neferneferuaten come, take up the crook and flail. Wear the Uraeus, the rearing cobra and lead our Two Lands.
Location: House of Libations
I fashioned a sculpture of such perfection. Her beauty is absolute, flawless and eternal. But under this shadow of symmetry, the sharp cheekbones and noble brow, the truth lies.
Aten[edit | edit source]

Akhenaten, He of the divine knowledge cries out to his Great Wife Nefertiti. "We must be voiceless no longer. We will tear down the old walls and build a new city to the sole God."
Location: Guardians of the Aten
Amenhotep, you whose vision gave us our purpose. You saw the Sun Disk one between two mountains, your Chamber amongst Titans. And so did Amun's reflection rise.
Location: West Gate
Living Aten, you whose rays shatter our darkness. We will sing a thousand songs on your victories against the Hittites. Your wisdom is boundless.
Location: Bridge of Supplicants
She weeps, the beautiful one weeps eternal for she loved a Heretic. Nefertiti your husband is our enemy, his name reviled, his faith reviled. Amun shall arise from the ashes of the Aten.
Duat[edit | edit source]

Location: Funeral Parlor Store
Bereft we weep as we honor you, for you must rest eternal. We will paint your enemies on your sandals so you may forever trample them. We will give you a golden throne, cobra headed Wadjet will rear up on your brow. So your sovereignty will be revealed.
Location: Altar of Apep
Tutankhamun, we honor you! You is the living image of Amun. You brought us back from darkness to the True Ones. Erect their temple of five pillars, like the five born of Nut, She who Bore the Gods, who wears the flowing waters upon her crown.
Location: Hall of Knowing
Akhenaten, the embodiment of the sun disk, lies in the eternal parlor. Neferneferuaten stands, but the Horizon falls. On his ninth journey around the Aten, Tutankhamun takes up the heka and nekhakha. So is Amun like the Lotus reborn.
Heb Sed[edit | edit source]

Great one, Userma'atre'setepenre. Gazing upon your enemy at Kadesh, a towering dune before immeasurable grains of sand. You saw their fear and victory was ours.
Location: Orion's Crater
"Do I please you, Father?" Spake the fearful child, as she stood before the Great Ramesses in his sanctuary. The King of Kings smiled and took her hand in his, "I am the Father of a hundred, but you are the warmth of my heart."

Keeper of Harmony and Balance, His Great Ren lasting eternal in the gustless sands. Where His feet tread, mountains arise. He will build Egypt in his image and all shall remember Ramesses.
