ABASI
Abasi was so wrapped up in his 'work' that he did not notice the Queen approaching. Such ignorance in Egypt would have surely been punished severely, if not with death for the lowest members of society; which was why when Wessex asked her question he flinched, turning with wide eyes to see the face of his ruler.
"I am...ah.." He glanced back down at his now rather crude looking face in the mud. "I suppose I was distracted thinking about the death masks that are tradition in some places, and I thought to try and sculpt one in this mud, as it is rather moldable." Abasi wiped his hand on the edge of the bench, feeling a hot shameful blush creep onto his cheeks. "...Is...there something you need, my Queen?"

If his heart rules him,
his conscience will soon take the place of the rod.
