Biography[edit | edit source]
Like her sister, Taous was a priestess serving at the Temple of Ptah. Their duties included the caretaking of the Apis bull, blessing his grain and delivering him his feed. Because of this, Panchrates was kidnapped one day in the market on orders of the Lizard, the priest Hetepi, who threatened his sisters to poison the Apis bull. When Tawe and Taous' actions were discovered by the Medjay Bayek of Siwa and his wife Aya, the sisters were revealed their plight, begging for their assistance to rescue Panchrates.[1]
Once Panchrates had been rescued,[1] Tawe and Taous' involvement in poisoing the Apis bull was told by Aya to the pharaoh Cleopatra, who called for them be executed. However, Aya was able to plead on their behalf by suggesting the Lizard's involvement. After the Hetepi's death, the twin priestesses were spared and allowed to take part in the Festival of Apis.[2]
