Tonight, we descend into the forgotten reign of a woman who dared to rule as Pharaoh — not as queen, not as consort, but as king. From divine birth myths and courtly silences to stone-carved power and the slow erosion of legacy, you’ll live her life from the moment she inherits power to the day her name is chiseled out. This is not a story of glory. It’s a story of burden — of building to be remembered, only to be erased.

If you’re still awake by the end, thank you for drifting through history with me.
