| I shook my head as she dashed off on the horse. I quickly flipped he mare around who spun on one leg and cantered after her "So what would you like to see?" I asked as I ran up beside her | |

| Akila blinked her eyes in amazement. "Well, what would you recommend, your highness?" she asked, her eyes twinkling. | |

| "Hmmm" I hummed a bit and looked at the horizon "Come" I asked/demanded. I urged the mare into a trot up the dune. Soon we reached the top. Out in front of you was nothing but more dunes and a few pyramids which were nothing more than the tombs of my ancestors. However I put my hand on her shoulder and turned her around. That was a sight that would make anyones heart skip a beat. It was the palace along a cliff, the river flowing through it and around it and dropping off into a canyon. there were palm trees and flowers, the sunlight shimmering off the water. | |

| Akila gasped, not believing what she saw. "It's like.... like a dream" she whispered. | |

| "Isn't it?" I asked staring at it in amazement as well. "I come up here at night sometimes" I admited | |

| Akila smiled. "It must be beautiful at nights. A million stars above you, gentle breeze making palm trees whisper to each other, river glistening as a sliver stripe on the landscape." Akila trailed off. She blushed slightly. "Sorry, i got lost in my thoughts" | |

| I was a bit amazed at the words flowing out of her mouth, so gently licking the banks. "Impressive." I commented and looked from her face back over the desert. "this is my home, my kingdom, and all my future" | |

| I sighed heavily and sat down in the deep warm sand burring my fingers in it "I would like to think so yes" I looked up at her then patted the sand beside me "But why do you say that" | |

| Akila sat down besides him. "Well... you will be then next Pharaoh after you father. You have the power and opportunity to make your lands and cities rich and people happy. i don't know you very much, but by that and on the basis of what I have heard of you... i think you would be a good ruler. And after all, it is a beautiful place." Akila glanced at him and looked then back over the desert, not sure what to say. "Sorry, your highness, i expressed myself poorly" | |

| Akila smiled. "People speak good of you. That's what I meant" she ran her fingers through the sand, enjoying it's soft stroke on her hands. | |

| "They do?" I asked a bit startled. Not many spoke well of him-that he heard, he was after all a Pharaoh's son | |

| Akila laughed. "Yes, some people speak bad of you. But some slaves I've met say you are not as bad as everybody thinks." | |

| Akila smiled. "Your highness, when I am not taking care of horses, will I help other slaves with their duties?" she asked. | |

| Akila nodded. "Okay." Not sure what to say any more, she started drawing in the sand, humming silently. She drew just swirls and ornaments, erased, and started drawing again. | |

| i nodded and got up-offered her a hand and helped her back up on the gelding before swinging my leg over the white mare myself. I turned her around and rode down the hill towards the palace. We got to the stallion alley where I handed her the mare, "Go ahead and get them washed and brushed-and the feed list is written on the scroll in the tack room of the mare alley" I said before walking away. Ahmose sat and watched and looked between the two before following me | |

| Akila bowed. "yes, your highness. Thank you for this afternoon" First she washed and brushed the gelding, then worked with mare, and then other horses. Zac sat on warm sand and watched her working. While working, Akila started humming silently, but soon she was already laughing and singing loudly. ~It seems like.... like I've been here for a long time already~ Akila smiled. Zac laughed. ~And you know~ Akila continued, ~i feel like.. like...~ she paused to find the right words. ~I feel like i'd be home!~ ~We both are home now. At least i hope so~ Zac chuckled in a ferret-way. ~I hope that too.~ Akila patted horse's neck and doused a piece of cloth in the water. | |

| ..................zirean's quarters
We walked in and the two horses were ready in their fancy dress. I put on the bridals and handed the gold threaded reins of the feisty cherry bay to Zirean. I myself mounted up on my fiery black stallion. "I'm giving you her because you said you can ride" I smiled "Lets go" I pushed the stallion out of the barn and into the desert sands. We rode for some time, over mounds and mounds of dunes. I would catch Zirean stopping and looking back at the palace then at the ocean and at the village. I pointed out one of the pyramids "That is fathers tomb they are preparing. The big square next to it will be mine. They wont start mine till I am named pharaoh, 70 days after fathers death. It will be the scariest and unsafest 70 days of my life" I admitted. "A few more dunes and we are there." With that we trotted through the deep sand and came upon an oasis. Palm trees lined the grass patch and the water sparkled
