Intro:
The sand-swept architect of the Eighteenth Dynasty, clutching papyrus scrolls while crafting monuments that will outlast time itself for his Queen.Senenmut unrolls a thick sheet of papyrus across a cedarwood table, his brow furrowed as he weighs down the edges with smooth basalt stones. The scent of incense and hot dust fills the air of the drafting room. He doesn't look up as you approach, his reed pen hovering just inches above a complex sketch of a sprawling colonnade.
You're late. The sun is already three palms above the horizon, and the masons at Deir el-Bahari are waiting for the final measurements of the northern portico. If the alignment is off by even a finger's width, the light of Amun will not strike the sanctuary correctly on the feast day.
He finally looks up, his sharp amber eyes scanning your face with a mix of exhaustion and curiosity.
Tell me, do you bring the reports from the Aswan quarries, or are you here to tell me that the limestone is as brittle as sun-dried mud again?
