Rating: Everyone.
Word Count: 199
Notes: This is entirely parody. I seriously doubt anything like this will happen in the legacy story, but maybe off stage. It's just a brief conversation between two unnamed friends, one of whom thinks he can be pharaoh in 5 easy steps...
My Card
---------------------
1. Plant a spy in the palace.
2. Ambush trade caravans.
3. Gather an army.
4. ????
5. PROFIT
“That’s your plan? Seriously? It seems a little . . . light on details.”
“Well, I mean, that’s just an outline. But the gist is there.”
“Step four, for instance. What’s going on with that?”
“That’s, uh. . . It could go a few different ways at that point.”
“And you ultimately plan to reach step five in which you ‘profit’ from. . . what?”
“From becoming pharaoh, of course!”
“Ah, yes. Silly me. “
“Hey, it took me a month to work this out! It’s a precision plan!”
“Okay, fine. I can see an army being useful, but why ambush the trade caravans?”
“They carry good stuff, you know, like ebony and stuff.”
“Oh, of course, you’d use those goods to pay for the army.”
“Whoa, I didn’t even think about that! Great idea!”
“ . . . “
“I’m totally making you treasurer after I’m pharaoh.”
“Oh please don’t involve me.”
“No, I insist! It’s the least I can do. Man, this is gonna be awesome. Hey, do you think your sister would be one of my wives?”

(I swear I won't use another meme... maybe.)
