Description

RIVER GOD FOLLOWS THE FATE OF THE EGYPTIAN KINGDOM THROUGH THE EYES OF TAITA, A MULTI-TALENTED AND HIGHLY SKILLED EUNUCH SLAVE.

TAITA IS OWNED BY LORD INTEF AND PRIMARILY LOOKS AFTER HIS DAUGHTER, LOSTRIS, BUT ALSO PLAYS A LARGE ROLE IN THE DAY-TO-DAY RUNNING OF LORD INTEFS ESTATE.

THE PHARAOH OF EGYPT IS WITHOUT A MALE HEIR, AND TAITA INADVERTENTLY CAUSES PHARAOH TO TAKE AN INTEREST IN LOSTRIS.

LOSTRIS MEANWHILE IS IN LOVE WITH THE SOLDIER TANUS, WHO UNBEKNOWNST TO HER IS HATED BY HER FATHER.

EVENTUALLY PHARAOH MARRIES LOSTRIS AND HER FATHER, LORD INTEF, RELUCTANTLY GIVES TAITA TO HER AS A WEDDING GIFT.

MEANWHILE, TANUS HAS ANGERED PHARAOH BY SPEAKING BLUNTLY ABOUT THE TROUBLES EGYPT IS IN - MOST PROMINENTLY THE GROWING BANDIT THREAT WHICH TERRORIZES ALL WHO TRAVEL OUTSIDE OF THE MAJOR CITIES.

PHARAOH CONDEMNS HIM TO DEATH FOR HIS ACTIONS, BUT IS CONVINCED TO ALLOW TANUS TO REDEEM HIMSELF BY ATTEMPTING TO ELIMINATE ALL THE BANDITS FROM EGYPT WITHIN TWO YEARS. फरोचया आधिपतयाखालील, सोनयाचा परचड साठा असललया एका समदध परदशातील महणज इजिपतमधील ही कहाणी आह. पAरो ममोस ह इजिपतच राज आहत. इनटफ हा वजीर आह. तया वजीराला एक सदर मलगी असत, लॉसटरीस. ताईता, हा इनटफ वजीराचा गणी गलाम असतो. इनटफ हा वरAर आणि विकत असतो. तयाला सतरियाऐवजी परषाबददल शारीरिक आकरषण असत. तरण गलाम मलाच लगिक शोषण तो करत असतो. तया दषटीन ताईता हा तयाचा आवडता गलाम असतो. तसच ताईताला वदयकशासतराची, जयोतिषशासतराची चागली माहिती असत, एवAणच तो हशार असलयामळ तयाचयावर इनटफची मरजी असत. पण, अलीडा नावाचया यवतीवर ताईताच मन जडत. ह जवहा इनटफला समजत, तवहा तो ताईतासमोर अमानष रीतीन अलीडाला मतयदड दतो. अलीडाला मतयदड दणयाच काम रासफर या अधिकाNयान कलल असत.
