So in the dim, forgotten years, their joy fell on Rames and on Tua,
Morning-Star of Amen, which still with them remains in the new immortal
kingdom that they have won long and long ago.
But when in the morning Asti the wise dared to open the great doors and
peer into the sanctuary of Amen, she saw a dreadful sight. For there
at the feet of the effigy of the god lay Abi, who slew his brother, and
Kaku the sorcerer, and Merytra the traitress, dead, slain by their own
or by each other's hand, and the stony eyes of the god stared down upon
them.
