You're always talking, but you're not playing

Thoth was working hard on an impromptu Senet board. He was rather pleased with the results. Golden gilded features looked down on the markings he made in the dirt, this would be no permanent board. He found ten stones - five that held a light gray to silver look about them and reminded him of marble. Five that were more sandstone textured with streaks of black yellow and red brushed over them in uniform lines. His senet sticks were literally sticks. One side was stripped on bark to simulate the white side and the bark simulated the dark.
All of his supplies were laid out ready to be played, now he needed an opponent. He had only played a couple of times as a pup, it would be interesting to test himself again an older wiser wolf. The rules were somewhat complicated, and Thoth prayed that he remembered all of the important ones.
The Alabaster Ithuriel sat back on his heels, the day was coming to a close, but if someone happened by soon they would have plenty of time for a game before dark. Thoth wore an amused hint of a smile, his long ears perked and dual colored gaze half lidded. The last of the Redbuds lay scattered around him, an ancient ceremony was about to play out and the scene was set perfectly. Just as the mortal god planned it.
