I am Lord Intef, Lostris’ father. The wealthiest man in the Upper Kingdom after Pharaoh himself, and growing richer every year. My titles granted to me by the king include Guardian of the Royal Tombs, the Support of Egypt, Pharaoh’s Companion, Nomarch of Karnak and Lord of the Necropolis. I am governor of all 22 nomes of Upper Egypt. I have eight wives, brought by substantial dowry or influential political connections, but only three children – Lostris, and two sons, Menset and Sobek. My palace is at Karnak. I am outrageously handsome, with long limbs and a flat, hard belly, and a leonine head. Crafty and devious, I am able to conceal my feelings for those around me. I have the patience of a crocodile, waiting years for the right opportunity to strike at my enemy. I prefer young boys to women and haven’t visited the harem for fifteen years. Always harsh with those who fail me, I'm at my most dangerous when my tone is mild and my smile silky. I loathe Tanus and his family.
