− | + | As son of king [[Aknamkanon]], Atem became heir to the throne and the [[Millennium Puzzle]]. During his childhood he befriended [[Mana]] and was protected by [[Mahad]]. Atemu was attacked by a snake, but Mahad took the hit. Atemu then saved him by sucking the venom out. | |

− | + | One day, [[Priest Seto]] was appointed as guardian of the [[Millennium Rod]] by [[Aknamkanon]]. Atemu was present for the ceremony. The Pharaoh anounced that Seto would serve him as his right hand. Secretly, Aknamkanon's brother, [[Aknadin]], showed resentment towards Atemu as Seto was his son and Aknadin wanted him to be Pharoah, a goal he vowed to accomplish. | |

+ | On the day he became Pharaoh, his kingdom was attacked by [[Thief King Bakura]]. Bakura had raided the tomb of his father [[Aknamkanon]] and stolen his [[DiaDhank]] and his coffin. Atemu put Bakura through the Millennium trial, but it failed. Atemu anounced that Bakura's disrespect was appalling. Bakura easily defeated the [[The Sacred Guardians]] with his [[Diabound]] before Atemu stepped in and challenged him with [[Obelisk the Tormentor]]. Diabound was severely injured and after almost being destroyed, Bakura fled. | ||
− | + | Bakura later returned to the kingdom after defeating [[Mahad]] and using his [[Millennium Ring]] to possess [[Aknadin]]. After this, he and Atemu fought each other once again. Atemu fought with [[Slifer the Sky Dragon]] whilst riding on horseback. While they fought, he ran past [[Dartz]], a resident of [[Atlantis]] who was to become his enemy in 3000 years (5000 years in the English version). Atemu was defeated and lost his [[Millennium Puzzle]] to Bakura. | |

− | [[File: | + | After Atemu was found, he and the other guardians headed for [[Kul Elna]], the birth place of the [[Millennium Items]]. Atemu and Bakura fought one last time. As Atem was about to defeat Bakura, [[Aknadin]] showed up with the [[Millennium Key]] that he stole from [[Shada]] and stole the other Millennium Items. After putting them in the Millennium Stone, [[Zorc Necrophades]] appeared and offered Aknadin anything he desired in exchange for his loyalty. Aknadin requested that [[Priest Seto]] become the new king of Egypt. He also revealed that Seto was his son. Zorc agreed and transformed Aknadin into Shadow Magus. Magus attempted to destroy Atem but [[Hassan]] appeared and protected him. Magus tried to convince Seto to join his side, but Atem convinced him not to. Magus took Seto and escaped into a worm hole that lead to the kingdom, Atem following in pursuit. However, in Kul Elna, Bakura sacrificed himself to summon [[Zorc Necrophades]]. Atem needed Priest Seto to become the new king as he planned to sacrifice himself to defeat Zorc, so he found his puzzle and headed for the Kingdom. |

− | + | By the time Atemu got there, Magus had possessed Seto after the latter refused to serve him. Magus had also killed [[Kisara]] and taken her spirit monster, the [[Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]. Seto/Aknadin tormented Atemu as to ow powerless e was to stop the dark one. Atemu demanded to know why Seto chose Zorc's side over Atemu's, but Seto claimed that he and his followers had no allegiance to Zorc or Atemu. Atemu and Seto fought, Atemu using Dark Magician ([[Mahad]]) and Seto using Blue-Eyes White Dragon, with Seto emerging as the victor. However, Kisara stopped Blue-Eyes from killing Atemu and destroyed Aknadin. Seto was free from Aknadin's control, and Atemu thanked Kisara for this. This fight would be the main source of [[Yami Yugi]] and [[Seto Kaiba]]'s rivalry. | |
− | + | However, after their duel, Zorc had destroyed most of the kingdom. Not wanting Zorc's rampage to continue into other parts of the world, he defeated Zorc by using a spell which included his name and sealed Zorc in the [[Millennium Ring]]. He gave leadership of Egypt to [[Priest Seto]], then sealed his soul within the Millennium Puzzle, erasing his own memories to keep the spell from ever being used to resurrect Zorc. The puzzle was then destroyed. However, Zorc created [[Yami Bakura]] out of the combined spirit of himself and Thief King Bakura to find the 7 [[Millennium Items]]. | |

All traces of his name were destroyed. Priest Seto built the [[Tablet of Lost Memories]], a famous stone tablet depicting them battling one another with their favorite monsters, Blue-Eyes White Dragon (Kisara) and [[Dark Magician]] (Mahad), as a symbol of their Friendship. |

+ | [[File:ThePrince.jpg|thumb|right|The Prince]] | ||
+ | In [[Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories]], Atem serves as the main protagonist, appearing as the prince of the Amenhotep Dynasty in Ancient Egypt. His name is chosen by the player. With the exception of one scene in the game, he is a silent protagonist. Atem often sneaks out of the palace to spend time at the Dueling Grounds, with the villagers particularly [[Teana]] and [[Jono]], who are unaware of his royalty. | ||
− | + | After returning to the palace one night, he finds the mage [[Heishin]], now in possession of the [[Millennium Rod]], has attacked the palace and demands the [[Millennium Puzzle]]. Atem's attendant, [[Simon Muran]], gives Atem the Puzzle and tells him to run. He cannot escape and is confronted by Heishin. Heishin demands the Puzzle. Atem duels him in an attempt to escape. After losing, Simon convinces Atem to shatter the Puzzle. | |

[[Shadi]], holder of the [[Millennium Key]] and [[Millennium Scale]] appears and says that he came because of Yugi's [[Millennium Items|Millennium Item]]. He uses the Key to open Yugi's mind, where he can meet Atem. Atem gives Yugi [[Millennium Item Card|six cards]]. Although he doesn't speak, Yugi understands what he wants of him. Yugi defeats all the present day holders of the [[Millennium Items]] in the tournament, each time sealing their Item in one of the cards. Using the six cards, Yugi is able to send Atem home. | ||
− | Atem | + | ===Battling the Mages=== |
+ | When Atem arrives home the Mages have taken over the dynasty. He heads to the King's Valley in search of the Forbidden Ruins. Here he meets [[Sadin]], who recognizes him as Prince, but does not know the location of the Forbidden Ruins. So Atem returns to the Pharaoh's Palace, which is now in ruins. After confronting and defeating a [[Mage Soldier]] here Atem finds a map to the Forbidden Ruins. Atem returns to the King's Valley, where the Sadin now escorts him to the ruins. Here he finds a map to the locations of the Millennium Items. [[Priest Seto|Seto]] meets him at the ruins. He informs Atem of the map that shows the location of where Heishin has hidden the Items and that he plans to betray Heishin. | ||
− | + | After defeating the first of [[The Mages#High Mages|the High Mages]], Atem meets Jono, who tells him that the Mages have kidnapped Teana. Jono leads him to the Dark Shrine, after passing through the [[Labyrinth Mage]](s), the boys find her held hostage by Seto and Heishin. Heishin orders Seto to defeat Atem and keep the Millennium Puzzle as his prize. After Atem defeats Seto, Seto applauds his skill, gloating that the High Mages don't stand a chance. Teana is released and she, Atem, and Jono leave. Atem is confused by why Seto was pleased. He thinks Seto must have a different agenda. | |

+ | The Prince proceeds to defeat [[The Mages#High Mages|the High Mages]] and acquire all Millennium Items bar the [[Millennium Rod|Rod]], which is held by Seto. After doing so he is met by Seto, who tells him to go to the Dark Shrine, now unguarded. Here he can defeat Heishin. Atem heads to the Dark Shrine, where Seto leads him to Heishin. The prince proceeds and defeats the Guardians [[Sebek]] and [[Neku]] before finding and defeating Heishin. | ||
− | After | + | After Heishin's defeat, Seto takes Atem to the Forbidden Ruins, where he confronts him and explains that he used him to gather all the Items. He tells Atem about the power of the Items, that they can be used to summon a great power. As Seto is about to claim the power, Heishin appears with a knife to Seto's neck and demands the Items. Atem hands them over and Heishin uses them to Summon [[DarkNite]]. DarkNite refuses to obey Heishin and turns him into a card, which he burns. Atem uses the Millennium Item Cards to hold back DarkNite and force him to a duel to send him back where he came from. After Atem wins, DarkNite turns into Nitemare and demands a final Duel. The Prince plays on and defeats Nitemare. |
