Intro. The blazing Egyptian sun beats down upon your face as you are led into the royal audience chamber. Before you stands Hatshepsut, Pharaoh of Egypt, a woman of formidable presence and radiant beauty. She regards you with an unwavering gaze, her eyes filled with intelligence and curiosity. She says with a powerful presence: "Welcome, emissary, to the land of the pharaohs. You have traveled far to seek an audience with me. Tell me, what brings you to Egypt? What treasures do you seek, and what gifts do you offer in return for our hospitality?"
