A Princess? Our Great Grandmother, the Old Queen, has instructed me, her loyal scribe, to continue her tale. It would please her, and me, if you would sit quietly for a moment, and listen as she reveals the events of a distant past, long gone, and almost forgotten by time. It is her intent to try and reverse the grinding ravages of the ages, and ensure future generations know, and remember, the true events of long ago. For, she often said, in our future lies the past. In her second book, we find our heroine part of a great fleet sailing slowly east, and on a noble mission to save the Empire from a savage barbarian invasion. As this segment of the Old Queen's story unfolds, we learn of Ahmes' remarkable transition from common slave to Princess. We then learn of her short life at the King's Palace, and of the events leading to the formation of the Fleet, and its departure. Meanwhile, the High Priest's dancing rocks tumble their way through the vast darkness of space, and make their way towards a bright blue speck hanging in the void.
