Ziyad runs through the market, knocking over stalls, as animals whine and rear.
Anytime a thief comes close to stabbing him, he jumps over another stall, or ducks under a shelf.
Half the market falls over as the thieves chase Ziyad. He chuckles as he pulls a piece of fruit he steals in the process and chews on it.
Long ropes hang off the side of the temple, as engravers and painters work.
Ziyad runs at the ropes and begins climbing it with his one good hand, while wrapping his stub around the other.
People scream and point as the thieves now grab the ropes and continue after him.
Ziyad laughs.
"I am not afraid! I am Ziyad, the great!"
Ziayd looks down and suddenly becomes greatly afraid, seeing he is more than halfway up the temple side.
He starts repelling, bouncing his feet off the side of the temple.
The thieves are closer. One reaches their hand to grab Ziyad's ankle.
Ziyad kicks him away as he heroically and bounces back and forth off the temple walls.
People scream and point. The blasphemy! The horror! The excitement!
Ziyad now runs along the side of the temple, see other ropes along the way.
He leaps and jumps, reaching with his ONE HAND.
Ziyad grabs the rope, chuckling, but then looks up.
The scaffolding for the painters and carvers where the ropes were hanging from, begins to snap and crack from Ziyad swinging on a rope attached to the bottom of their platform.
The workers hold on for dear life.
The other thieves are swinging their ways towards Ziyad.
Ziyad swings away from the scaffolding as it breaks and collapses, falling right past him as he jumps on to another rope.
The thieves swinging after him swing right under as the scaffolding of wood and materials slams into them.
It all collapses in a big crash at the bottom of the temple floor.
"Oh. I'm in big trouble. No. No. No."
Every warning in Amen's display goes off.
And a group of messages keep covering his view of what his cousin is up to, and all the of screams of horror and excitement going in Thebes.
MADJAY NOTIFIED.
Amen runs as fast he can as Ur and his armed men are right upon him.
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
Amen runs past a blacksmith and grabs a freshly made spear.
He snatches it and spins and throws it as he keeps running.
Ur and his men jump out of the way, falling over each other like a crash at a marathon.
Amen then jumps over tents and barrels and tables, all while the people are screaming at him.
He aims for a wall with a large LEAP.
The leap ends with Amen falling into the priestess bath.
Naked and bathing women scream as Amen falls into the water.
His HONOR points are cut in half. Women scream and run.
"Forgive me! Forgive me!"
His point percentages keep dropping every single he is in the bath, as he sprints across.
One woman comes and PUNCHES Amen across the face, knocking him to the ground.
Other women cheer as they begin running and throwing things at him.
His health meter is dropped almost in half, like he was stabbed or run over by a camel.
Amen runs and leaps again towards another wall.
As soon as Amen lands on the ground back in the streets, Ur swings his sword at him.
Amen ducks the swing, as another thief then runs forward with a knife.
Amen dodges and moves from both swing and stab, then kicks sand in both of the enemies eyes.
Ur screams, swinging his sword, blinded.
Points slowly start going back up. Radar pixelates. He can barely see an image of Ziyad repelling off the temple walls.
COMBINATION LEARNED.
Ur, in a mad rage, slices his sword into his fellow thief with the dagger, who screams and drops the dagger, dead.
Amen grabs the dagger as another thief runs at him with a piece of wood.
Amen dodges the swing of the large piece of a tree, and quickly takes the enemy out with the dagger at the leg with a cut, then tosses the dagger away.
Ur finally opens his eyes, just as the large plank that was being swung at Amen is thrown and hits him in the face, breaking his nose and knocking him out.
Honor points drop, but style goes up.
Amen begins to run, but stops, and immediately tries going the other way.
Ziyad is running full speed at him, with what seems all of Thebes behind him.
Guards. Soldiers. Merchants. Men. Women. Priests.
The two cousins catch up with each other.
"What did you do??" Amen yells, breathless.
His display flashes warning signs. His health is depleting and he is about to pass out.
"Oh. The normal. Are you missing a tooth?!"
"Yes," Amen says, "a priestess punched me!"
"You got more."
"Run, fools!"
Another voice has called to them.
They look up to see Aziza to the rescue.
She rides towards the foolish cousins on her beautiful camel, with two more in tow behind her.
Ziyad and Amen laugh and cheer as they run towards their camels.
Amen's censors points and health and honor all start to stack up again, and he hears the chimes in his head.
The two leap on the camels as they spit and grunt.
Aziza turns and leads them away, as the entire town runs after them.
The camels speed up though, and leave Thebes behind.
