[QUOTE="Gli'jar, post: 2884516, member: 36562"] The caravan slowed upon the approach to the desert oasis called Prophet’s Leap. Fifty-seven camels, supplies, and their attendants riding through the sands, enigmatic forms in billowing cloaks, protective face shrouds, and bolts of linen blowing in the desert winds. Arrival rituals began with thanks, prayers and supplications to various gods, for safe passage through the desert. A lone figure whose camel was lead through the throng of travelers, returned offerings of blessing as he dismounted and made his way into Prophet’s Leap. [COLOR=Sienna]“In my right hand I bear the lotus of Isis and in my left the scarab of Ra. The Ankh of Thoth and the eyes of Horus watch over and protect you. May Anubis judge you worthy for entrance to Aaru where you will join Osiris in paradise. May Ra’s mercy shine down and protect us all from the evils of the serpent of chaos.”[/COLOR] His form still shrouded by the billowing linens that swirl about his form in the dry desert wind, he makes his way into Prophet’s leap. Once in, he removes his face shroud, letting the bolts of fabric run down the length of his simple linen cloak. He walks with a presence that causes those around to turn a look. His freshly shorn face reveals ritual tattooing and prayers. He then seems to summon from a fold in the fabric a large sun-disk which he then dons marking him as a holy man of Ra and makes his way towards the stone. As he approaches the stone Isfendiyar sees a large figure making some form of offering which is then interrupted by the ravings of the Speaker of Dust. He continues to approach, offering a question to the Speaker, nodding to the large figure and offering a bow of respect to the Speaker, [COLOR=sienna]“Master Speaker, are we not taught that as tipling mortals, it is not for us to question intent, that is Anubis’s providence in the Hall of Judgement?
