Incense wafted from the king's chamber as he lay on his bed for the last time. The embalmers would arrive to perform their duty for Thutmose II, who had followed his late father three years earlier, leaving him and his royal wife, Hatshepsut, at the helm. But the deceased Thutmose II was no match for his father's grandeur. The ominous news didn't dampen her composure, not because of their frosty relationship, but because she was used to fate wreaking havoc with her plans. The child Thutmose III approached the deceased king's chamber. Her tragedy was repeated. She did not give birth to a son for the king, but two girls. Therefore, the eldest must marry him to stabilize the throne. After the death of the young king Thutmose II, Kemet is shocked and conspiracies approach the throne. Hatshepsut is responsible for raising King Thutmose III, her stepson, to obtain the throne. Meanwhile, Thutmose grows up in the temple and the army, and within himself, a question struggles: Can he truly be a great king like his ancestors? When the surrounding evil forces gather to occupy Kemet, the question becomes: Is the young king ready to deter them?
