Background:

                    Heka was an enigma even at his birth. It is rumoured that her mother not only didn't have a father, but also was still pure of heart and body (i.e. still a virgin...) when she conceived the child. The fact she was only 14 somehow added credence to her claim, but all priests dismissed it as a bad, child-frightened lie. But one.

This priest, follower of Sechat, found the subject intriging, and went to see the girl, then reported to his hierarchy, which decided the girl and the child should be monitored and protected. But it was too late.

When the night came, Sechat came to assist her in her birth. The boy, for it was a boy, was born weak, and almost dead. But the mother, as it wasn't rare in those nights, didn't survive the birth, dying from blood loss. Sechat gave the child to her priest, and went to talk to the dead mother.

''Because of events yo knew nothing of, you have been chosen to bear this child. You are innocent, and young. You haven't lived your life. I can't bring you back to see your son grow, but I can ease your path to the Land of Osiris.''

Sechat ordered the mother's body to be mummified by her High Priests, and then Rituals that, should she pass the Test of Maat, would make of this peasant girl in this world a noble princess in the Land of Osiris.

The boy was educated by the High Priests of Sechat, and by the Godess herself, for now she knew the boy wielded so much Sekhem in his weak body that he could only become a great magician. To her surprise, and the consternation of the Priesthood of Ra and of Ptah, the boy never became interested in Neter-Hekau (True Magic), and instead learnt the secrets of Thot-Hekau.

At the age of 9, Heka went to see Sechat, and asked her to give him Blood Immortality. Sechat refused, for he was too young. Even if he was mature enough, he would have to wait for his body to reach adulthood. Heka countered that his body was too weak, and that he feared he would die before reaching his full potential. Besides, his interests lied with Magic, not reaching an animal adulthood that would add nothing to his intellect. Sechat knew the boy's intelligence was such he would find a way to reach his aim, and other Bloodlines, as well as the Followers of Horus and the Cult of Isis were interested in the boy.

She accepted, to the condition that she would embrace him in the same week he succeeded in learning and mastering a list of Hekau Spells. One of them was a High Spell, out of reach of most non-fully awakened mortals. To her surprise, Heka came to her months later, to show her his mastery of every Spells she gave him to learn. Including, the High Spell. Heka, after much preparation, was Embraced the night of his 10th birthday.
