The Setting for Part II in A Soul Warrior's Journey: Egypt
Why did I choose Egypt for Part II of my book? I believe Egypt has been a mystical and a mysterious place and it is also spiritual too. Egypt has early history from the building of the pyramids and the sphinx and also with the pharoahs too. I wanted my character Joseph Woods to have past life links to Egypt and this life time would draw him back to spiritual work to try to resolve the problem in this life time.
However, I also wanted to add some of the modern day problems of Egypt such as the protest that happened in 2011 to get their ruler Mubarak out. However, this ruler's name that they want out is Meir Ben-Haim. They still fight over who has control such as if it's going to be the people, the government, or the military.
Egypt has their issues just like then, but I wanted to convey the people as being ghosts of their former selves. Where they were once promenant many millenium ago, they now strive to be the people they once were. The return to prominence. It is a transformation. Not only a transformation that goes on with Joseph Woods the central character, but in Egypt as a whole.
For those who believe change can happen, the mission of Joseph Woods, Matteus Andersen, and Ericka Andersen linger on through Egypt. They go through the oppressors and those who accept them because they want change themselves. The chariots in Egypt still ride, except it's only in the modern age and revolution is felt all over. This is why I choose Egypt.
