Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
Early life[[edit] | [edit source]]
Ibrahim was the distant descendant of Mentu and one of Erimem's handmaidens, Hanek. He was born and grew up in Egypt. As a young adult he attended the London University of History and Antiquity where he involved himself in every wild stunt he could imagine. He also practiced fencing, an old family tradition, during his time at university. After graduating, he returned to Egypt and became a historian. Ibrahim had long been fascinated with the death mask of an uncrowned female Pharaoh from the Tomb of the Three Princes. Eventually an agreement between the Egyptian government and the London University of History and Antiquity was reached to loan out the contents of the Tomb of the Three Princes for a ten year period, with the stipulation that the curator must be Egyptian. As both an Egyptian historian and graduate of the London University of History and Antiquity, Ibrahim was granted the job. (PROSE: The Last Pharaoh [+]Loading...["The Last Pharaoh (novel)"])
