The Hunt for the Snake was a years-long personal vendetta carried out by the Medjay Bayek and his wife Aya to avenge the murder of their son Khemu at the hands of the Order of the Ancients, known collectively as "the Snake".

The Heron
After year of searching, Bayek learned that Saqqara Nome's nomarch Rudjek was one of the masked man known as "the Heron" Rudjek. Bayek tracked him down to Sneferu's Bent Pyramid, where he fought and defeated Rudjek's bodyguard Hypatos before continuing to corner his target. When Rudjek asked why a Medjay hunted him when they were supposed to protect the pharaohs, Bayek denied serving the Ptolemaic dynasty and instead showed his arm covered in tattooed cryptonyms.[2]
The nomarch panicked at seeing his name crossed off, swearing that his brethren would find and stop Bayek, and attempted to avert his fate by throwing a knife at his assailant's head. However, Bayek blocked it with Rudjek's mask he had recovered earlier and, vowing in turn that he would wait in the shadows to eliminate everyone in the Order who was at Siwa, he thrust the knife in the mask into Rudjek's face and instantly killed him.[2]
