“On the outskirts of town, near the old mill, an old Heru has set up camp. He was very talkative, for a Heru, and once he had a few drinks in him he would tell stories about his time as a young warrior fighting against the forces of Akhenaten. In one of these stories he mentioned a Priest of Aten using a Kekooee Seshket during the battle. This Priest fought off a dozen Heru warriors before he was cut down by the Harbinger. This was near the end of the war, so the warband had to move on quickly to take part in the final battle against the Atenists."
