In this coffin lies the reformed ashes of a warrior to rise once more as a Phoenix. Only when the time is right, when the ember of rebellion and independence begins to flicker, will the coffin open. From there, the warrior inside will know what to do.

"I did. I have not seen such splendor before ever constructed this far from my home. This would put the kings of even now to shame." He greeted back, standing next to his side.

He does not need sleep, he has past a coil requiring that. He will rest in the meantime, and await to meet the Pharoah in the morrow.

The candle has been lit, the offerings made. He could not ask of Zeus' assistance, king of the gods. He had done nothing yet to earn his presence. Ares may only be called upon to give Tyros strength in battle, he would be just as lost as he is. With the last of the offerings to Athena placed, he +

He appreciates the gesture and will have to get used to having a servant, as Periokoi soldiers like him were not given servants unlike his Spartan betters. For now, he gets himself settled into his new holdings and begins to fashion a small altar to begin some form of connection to Olympus.

"Right, right. Why the h e l l would servants be privy to a matter only kept under wraps by the gods? Not only that, BUT WHERE IN THE NAME OF MARATHON ARE WE!?"

The specter makes a good point. He'll have to be knowing of that later, right now there's a war to win.

"Very well, sir." Maybe being in the palace can help him get a better understanding of this world, and maybe when he is done here to send him back to his own.
