Atem had been in the main district but that proved fruitless as anyone that could be of real help was not actually present in the town. It was quickly becoming clear that this was all very real and that it was not about to change anytime soon. So, since the waywarrant, with all the supposed answers, was not due back for another day or two he might as well try to learn about his surroundings. The land itself was a marvel, so green and overflowing with life, especially when compared to his own dichotomy of desert and river valley. But what he found even more curious was the people. The faces were different of course but the archetypes all familiar even to the sheltered king.

It was in these wanderings that he came across a woman with... a skull? Atem put up his guard immediately, although she appeared to be no real threat. One did not simply keep human remains lying about if they had any hand in them being in such a state. Still it was an odd possession and he had to wonder.

"I do hope you did not have to kill the man that once owned that." The young pharaoh inquired at a distance, attempting to mask the frustration that had coloured his thoughts all day.

It was an automatic response. How many times had she been detained by securities of various countries for carrying bones over borders? She stood up and regarded the young pharaoh with a rather tired expression - clearly she had heard that question more than she had wanted to.

"I have not determined sex of the individual whose skull that once belonged to. Though cause of death has also not been determined, I can assure you that the individual was dead roughly two to three weeks before I obtained their skull."
