When Bes finally arrived at the coast, he gazed out into the endless oceans and watched the sun disappear on the horizon. A thought struck him.
Maybe he could travel them. Explore the vast world beyond this desert, and find out what's beyond the horizon.
A useless fantasy, he mused, but he decided to consider his actions.
He was back at an ordinary human size. Echnaton was still half a man, and Hapi still bound to his sole. The river spirit had stopped squirming a while back and was now somewhat malleable. An interesting trick to prolong his life.
He probably still believed he would be saved by Aset.
Echnaton was now curled up beside him, seemingly exhausted from the earlier fight and the heat of the sun. If he wanted to keep this little servant, he would have to do something about his fragile human needs.
