Friday September, 5th - Aliens in Egypt

 The date is 1323 B.C.E and King Tutankhamen has just taken power over Egypt. He is the twelfth king of the eighteenth dynasty. The day was dusty and warm, but the nights were calm and shallow of any excitement. There was only the clear night sky doted with bright stars and the moon seemed to shine directly on the new King of Egypt.
  The second night of his reign was upon them and there was nothing but celebration as they danced and sang for King Tut and his newly wedded wife. He married his half sister, Ankhesenamun. The nights of his reign were glorious indeed as he restored the Egypt's traditional religion of Polytheism, belief in more than one god.
  This belief harshly expressed the belief of an afterlife and "The Book of the Dead". Kings were often honored in the highest ritual of mummifying and given a tomb full of gold and things the King might need in the afterlife.
  Years have passed sense King Tut has been chosen as King and the night is once again calm and dusty, but the night sky was not so clear. The moon did not poke out from behind the clouds, and the stars shut their eyes as it was a night not to be seen.
 King Tut sits upon his throne with a blank expression across his face as his subjects present him with gifts and gold. His expression did not change until a flicker of light caught his eye. He gracefully walked to a large doorway in front of his palace and peers out into the night only to see a strange creature staring back at him.
  King Tut roars at the monster, "Get off my land as you are not welcome here hideous beast of the night", the creature nearly squinted its rounded yellow eyes in a angered way. King Tut now takes a strong step forward with shimmering gold staff enlightened by the moon in hand and repeats, "Get of my land you are not welcome here", The disgraced beast does not move and King Tut falls to the ground in huge breathes. King Tut takes one last glance at the creature and falls to shades of black behind his eyelids.
  The creature of the night was not seen again along with King Tut's wife Ankhesenamun. King Tutankhamen was buried in the Valley of Kings after his mysterious death at only eight-teen. His tomb was not uncovered until 1922 only for the story to continue in the new world.
