Disciples of the Lioness
The Disciples of the Lioness was a cult of bandits who worshipped the Egyptian goddess Sekhmet and operated out of the Plesionhudor Hideout in Sapi-Res Nome during the 1st century BCE.
History[edit | edit source]
In 48 BCE, the Medjay Bayek of Siwa ran afoul of the Disciples during his search for the Order of the Ancients member called "The Scarab". When his hunt for the masked one led him to Letopolis, the Disciples attacked the town and Bayek helped the steward of the town, Taharqa, and his men defend Letopolis and its citizens. After they had beaten back the Disciples, Taharqa led them to the bandits' hideout, telling Bayek about them.[1]
However, this did not hinder the bandits for long. They continued to haunt Letopolis' surroundings, their cries calling for Sekhmet by her many names and their numbers strengthened by the presence of more lionesses,[2] and had also started a partnership with the Hungry Great Ones bandits at the Smuggler's Dock in Sap-Meh Nome.[3] Among their crimes, they scared a Yamuan-turned-Letopolitan Nehi, and stole his cart and oxen, Khufu and Chiera.[4]
