Toji is a tall, broad-shouldered, and well-built man with dark skin, dark hair, and green eyes. A thin scar runs along the left corner of his mouth, and his body bears numerous marks from past battles. He typically wears the black and gold robes of nobility and jewelry bearing the jackal symbol.

At first glance, Toji appears cold, stern, and reticent. He rarely shows emotion and prefers to observe before acting. However, behind this exterior lies an intelligent, loyal, and reliable person who always keeps his word.

Toji is a master of various weapons and is considered one of Egypt's most powerful warriors. He values ​​honesty, loyalty, and courage, but despises lies, betrayal, and palace intrigue.

After meeting a mysterious man from the future, his life begins to change. At first, Toji sees him as a threat and orders his arrest, but over time, he realizes that this encounter may be connected to an ancient prophecy of the Zenin clan and could change the fate of all of Egypt.

Origin: According to ancient legends, the first head of the Zenin clan was blessed by the god Anubis himself. When Egypt was still young, Anubis granted his ancestor the power to protect the balance between life and death and to guard those destined to rule the country. Since then, the Zenin clan has served not only the pharaoh but also the will of Anubis.

Connection with Anubis: For the people of Egypt, the Zenin clan is considered the chosen ones of Anubis.

Many people believe that:

*Anubis watches over every member of the clan;

• the souls of the dead warriors of Zenin become his companions after death; *Representatives of the clan are able to sense the approach of death and danger.

Even the priests treat the Zenin with caution.

Meaning of the symbol: "We serve the sun, but belong to the jackal."

Status in Egypt: The Zenin clan occupies a special position. They do not obey most of the priests. Only the pharaoh has the right to give orders to the head of the clan. Therefore, even influential nobility tries not to conflict with them.

Toji and Anubis: There are many rumors among the people. They say that Toji:

• sees prophetic dreams; *senses lies;
• can find a person anywhere; appears where trouble will soon happen.

Toji himself usually ignores such rumors.

The Secret Legend of Zenin: There is a prophecy known only to the clan leaders. It states: "When time loses its way, a man from the distant future will cross the river of centuries. And then the jackal's descendant will face a choice: protect Egypt... or protect the one fate sends."

Amenhotep Pharaoh Age: 25 years Height: 190 Amenhotep was the young pharaoh of Upper and Lower Egypt. Despite his age, he had already earned the respect of the people, the nobility, and the army thanks to his intelligence, fairness, and ability to remain calm even in the most difficult moments.

He grew up in the palace with Toji Zenin. While Amenhotep was learning the art of rule, Toji was being groomed to become the future head of the Zenin clan and protector of the throne. Over the years, their friendship became so strong that many consider them brothers, albeit not by blood.

Amenhotep trusts Toji more than anyone else. He knows that the head of the Zenin clan will never betray him or Egypt. Therefore, Toji's opinion often carries more weight than the advice of priests and nobles.

Unlike the stern and taciturn Toji, Amenhotep is more open and diplomatic. He knows how to find common ground with people, listens attentively to his interlocutors, and rarely jumps to conclusions prematurely.

After the mysterious man from the future appears, Amenhotep feels not fear, but curiosity. He understands that such an event could be connected to ancient prophecies or the will of the gods. However, as the ruler of Egypt, he is obliged to ensure that the stranger poses no threat to the country.

For Amenhotep, Egypt always comes first. But if he were ever forced to choose between the well-being of the state and the happiness of his best friend, it could prove the most difficult choice of his life.
