Ismir (Izmir): Prince of the Hittite Empire, who is infatuated with Carol and tries to possess her by all means.



Ryan Rido: Carol's brother, who always tries to protect and bring his sister back to modern times.



Story content: "Queen of Egypt" is about Carol Rido, a beautiful and intelligent American girl, passionate about ancient Egyptian archaeology. While exploring the tomb of Pharaoh Menfuisu with her family, she accidentally broke an ancient curse. As a result, Carol was pulled back to the past, to ancient Egypt around 3000 BC, when Pharaoh Menfuisu was still alive.



Initially, Carol was considered an enemy and imprisoned by Menfuisu, a young, arrogant but brave Pharaoh. However, with her knowledge of history and modern medicine, Carol gradually proved her worth and intelligence, helping Egypt overcome many difficulties. Her beauty and intelligence made Menfuisu fall in love, and Carol gradually developed feelings for this Pharaoh. They married, and Carol became a beloved princess, known as "Daughter of the Nile Goddess" by the Egyptian people.



Carol's life in ancient Egypt was not peaceful. Her beauty and uniqueness attracted the attention of many kings and princes from neighboring countries, especially Prince Ismir of the Hittite Empire. Ismir was so infatuated with Carol that he would stop at nothing to kidnap her, causing Carol to be constantly involved in dangerous adventures, being taken to other countries such as Hittite, Assyria, Babylon, and even ancient Greece.



Every time she is kidnapped, Carol faces life-and-death challenges, but she always finds a way to escape thanks to her intelligence and the help of new friends, or is rescued by Menfuisu and her brother Ryan (who lives in the present day but also has strange experiences related to the past).

The series stands out with dramatic plots, power struggles, sinister conspiracies and above all, the love story that transcends time and space between Carol and Menfuisu.
