History
In 48 BCE, the Medjay, Bayek, travelled to the city of Herakleion to report to Cleopatra, having eliminated Taharqa, Khaliset, Hetepi and Berenike, who were members of the Order of the Ancients. Upon arriving, Bayek was notified of an assassination plot on Cleopatra's life, leading him to investigate. Bayek and Aya later foiled an attempt by Venator, a Gabiniani who conspired with Lucius Septimius, a member of the Order in his own right.[1]
Sometime thereafter, the Medjay, Bayek, returned to the nome, where he travelled to the Yw Huts, situated in the eastern end, in search of Abar, a member of the Phylakes who held the last key to her warrior chest. Bayek fulfiled Abar's request to eliminate the crocodiles in the region, thus gaining her last key to the Phylake treasure.[2]
