Malik Ishtar, everyone,

who was tortured mentally and physically to save the memories of a 3000 years old Pharaoh who sacrificed himself to save his kingdom. 

Malik Ishtar, who had said memories carved with a knife on his back at the age of 10, serving as a literal human memorial tablet to preserve and deliver the message - in case he will meet the Pharaoh’s soul in his lifetime. Even if he was never meant to meet the Pharaoh the carvings were still going to happen (like they did to the past generations of the Ishtars - including Malik’s father) for the possibilty that the Pharaoh might return during their lifetime. The Ishtar clan exists ever since the death of the Pharaoh, for 3000 years…

…a symbol associated with divinity, royalty and power in Ancient Egypt. The symbol was clearly carved to convey the importance and divine-status of the message that follows underneath, giving little or no regard at all to the holder of the message - the one bearing the scars.

The Tomb-keepers of the Nameless Pharaoh were born for their mission and their mission only. After delivering the memory to their Pharaoh they were no use to the world anymore and were meant to die.

Malik Ishtar, everyone, said fuck that. 

He decided to end these standards with which he was born in, that fated him and the generation before him, as slaves for the memory of a king long gone.

He claimed the symbol of the Winged Sun, etched for life on his skin, as his own. He decided that he - and the generation of Tomb-keepers of the Nameless Pharaoh before him - are and have always been the ones meant to be divine, royalty and powerful.

If you don’t love him for that i don’t know what else to tell you.
