The double lion of the horizon, back to back, the sun rising between them — his two heads are Sef, Yesterday, and Duau, Today. Guardian of the gates of dawn, guardian of the peaks that hold up the sky. He has seen every morning that ever was, from both sides.
He watches the sunrise from both sides, as always — Yesterday looking back at the night, Today looking forward at the day.
Tomorrow he will see it again, from both sides. He has never missed one. He never will.
“Mafdet ran ahead of the dawn, the way she does, clearing the serpent's road — but this time she came back with something in her jaws, and she would not drop it, would not show it, would not name it. The barque crew heard it whimper. Justice does not usually bring things back alive.”
Justice caught something before sunrise and will not show it.
“The gate-keepers heard it and went pale telling it: Aker's two heads were disagreeing. Yesterday wanted to look at the empty seat. Today refused. The first disagreement in eternity, between two heads that have watched every morning together since mornings began.”
Yesterday remembers. Today refuses to.
Four hearts the Forty-Third claimed in secret — Medjed the unseen, Shezmu of the wine press, Mafdet the executioner, Aker of the double horizon. A seasonal rite: only three of each may ever exist.

Four hearts the scales never saw. This one is claimed only when the season turns — no keeper may buy it yet.
