To not clog up my blurb, I'll do it here. Quick disclaimers and stuff and for the peeps who like skipping through things like this, joke's on you.

This is an entry to the Open Novella Contest 2022, a Wattpad Ambassador-run event running from February to May. In a way, this is a standalone and will be understandable without reading any of my other works. However, I would greatly appreciate it if you checked my other works as well. They're found at the latter part of this story so watch out for that list!

Since this is an entry to the ONC, here are the prompts it is based on:

53 - All the girls in the Pharaoh's harem shared a common goal: earn his attention, bear his offspring, and rise above the rest. Not her. She was there for revenge.

39 - "Fine, make me your villain."

81 - In 2050, our reptilian overlords finally reveal themselves to us. As one might imagine, that messes with what we perceive as "the natural order" in countless ways

This is an unedited draft. This is not line-edited so you'll see a lot of possible typos, some unflowy sentences, and most likely, some degree of bad phrasing. I see them all the time so don't worry, I'm way ahead of you there. No need to scream about it in my comments section.

This story is set in a fictional world. Everything comes from my imagination and should be treated as such. I do my research and take inspiration from anything and everything but if there's something you feel iffy about, some detail that you think should not be there, please tell me so we can sort things out immediately. I will appreciate it. <3

So, thank you for clicking into this and for reading this part. I hope you enjoy the succeeding story. For the judges, I hope none of my possible typos faze you from reading further. xD

With that, I usher you to one of the many ways a story can start.
