    The Beautiful Festival of Opet was celebrated annually in Thebes. Occurring at the time of Inundation in the season of Akhet, which would mean August-September in modern days. It was celebrated each year and lasted from 11 to 27 days. During the festival divine kingship was reborn and the the king's position as pharaoh reaffirmed. On a cosmic level, the festival "secured the regeneration of the Creator, Amun of Luxor, the rebirth of Amun-Re of Karnak, and the recreation of the cosmos."

    Zahi!!!! Oh my gosh. Thanks for coming, my friend!!! Meet me at the Desert Palms? Have you heard from Baha?

    Nilaja, I am not really sure what "role" I will play. In the Akhet story I was supposed to be Ankhesenamun/Ankhesenamen. Since the role play has yet to begin, I supposed I'll just start from there, as a pilgrim.

    I'll be a consumer! *L

    Oh and I did hear from a certain past Pharaoh. He came back, but had to deal with something out of state. You can check my message board, if that will help. ;) I wish he would post.

    Cheers!
