House Zamonth

House Zamonth of Hamunaptra was once a Court House until it became a Expelled House when they conspired against Saturania with the Romans in 3000 aT. They served for millenia since Tutankhamun's Age, when Zamonth became a member of his council. Their seat is at Hamunaptra in Khalem on Per-Zamonth. The patriarch or matriarch of the family was given the title of "Neb of Hamunaptra" or "Nebet of Hamunaptra", but that ended once they where Expelled, the Bloodcurse was set on their blood, and House Ptolemaios of Hamunaptra took their place in the Court.

Their symbol as a once Court House are a pair of crossed curved knifes commonly used in animal sacrifices.

Their patron deity is Montu, god of war and battle strategy.

The Fourth Clan
After the creation of Auron and Ket, the Netjeru created Five Clans from each of the Five Stars and put them in different parts of the world, giving them the order to reach the heart of the world. Years passed after the Valley of Khalem began to fill with humankind, when each of the Clans arrived at the Ben-Ben one by one, where they kneeled before Auron and Ket.

The fourth Clan to arrive at the Ben-Ben and kneel before Auron and Ket, came from caverns in the north, where they used to live surrounded by darkness until they eventually found their way out. It is said that the god Montu protected them in their voyage to the heart of the world.

Zamonth
Seven centuries later, when the first Pharaoh, Tutankhamun I, was crowned as one, a member of each Clan joined the Pharaoh's Court to give council to the Pharaoh. Zamonth was the candidate of the descendants of the Fourth Clan to become a Neb.

Zamonth's kin kept his name as their family's name, House Zamonth of Hamunaptra

Betrayal
When the Roman Conquest began, the Zamonths were afraid of their family being executed or tortured, so they began to ally with the Romans through marriages to keep themselves alive and protect House Egyps.

After years passed, the new Zamonth generations, now with Roman Blood, worked as a doble agent by telling the Roman Senate the secret Court's plans to defeat them. When the Court discovered House Zamonth's betrayal to the Pharaoh, they used it as a tactic to fight the Romans.

In the Battle of Independence, the Egyptians ended victors after their strategy with the Zamonths worked out. The Pharaoh Tutankhamun II, the first after the Conquest, punished the House not by executing them, but by puting on their blood the Bloodcurse, to challenge little by little their pride, which they were known for. This curse would make them inherit mental and physical illnesses and decrease their fertility rate. It also left Per-Zamonth in a perpetual decaying state.

House Ptolemaios replaced them in the Court, and they became a Expelled House, although they kept their home in Hamunaptra.
