The beloved of Hathor, and The shrine of the Golden Hawk

Set against the stark backdrop of a temple roof in ancient Egypt, this drama opens as the high priestess Ranoutet receives a prophetic message about the war against the Hyksos. Aahmes, a fierce warrior destined to become king, must choose between the weight of a spiritual destiny and the lure of personal conquest. Meanwhile, a young attendant Ouny carries a basket of lotus offerings, her humble ritual echoing the larger stakes of a nation on the brink of liberation.

In a contrasting scene lit by flickering fire, the second play moves to a cavern on Mount Bakhua where the metal‑working magician Gebuel forges a golden hawk talisman intended to tip the balance of power. The talisman draws the attention of Zozer, the ambitious ruler of Egypt, who sends his enigmatic daughter Nectoris—trained in the mysteries of Isis—to reclaim it. As these two worlds collide, the listeners are drawn into a tapestry of devotion, intrigue, and the timeless question of whether divine purpose can outweigh earthly ambition.
