Erimem recovers to find that she and Peri have been rescued by Arius, the presbyter of Baucalis in Alexandria, and one of the two men whose argument is tearing the Church apart.
Erimem is still upset with her friend, particularly when Peri begs her to give up her hopeless cause and return to the TARDIS before it’s too late; angered, Erimem accuses Peri of parroting the Doctor’s arguments without fully understanding them herself, and refuses to listen to anything her friend has to say.
Erimem thanks him for his kind words but is unwilling to trust a stranger with such sensitive information, and he thanks her and apologises for putting her in such a position.

 Outpost Gallifrey: Reviews
Following a pacy opening episode, which sets the scene and introduces the characters, and ends with Erimem being captured by the evil force, episode two is wholly comprised of this beings attempts to turn Erimem ‘to the dark side’ by showing visions of her father and TARDIS crewmates.
And Erimem’s death proves dramatically satisfying thanks to Peri’s angry reaction, a thankful contrast to her chirpy optimism that is almost as irritating as her whininess.
Erimem's reactions to seeing her father condemn her to death and so on were also very moving from an acting point of view.

Erimem joined the Doctor at the end of The Eye of the Scorpion.

Though she did so to save Erimem, who cherishes the deed she believes is justified as it has saved her life, Peri is unable even to face her friend for some time, withdrawn into self-deprecating angst over the experience.
I did not expect to see Erimem take the pretending-to-be-a-slave act in stride and even enjoy it, and I was even more surprised to find her enjoying it, but it worked all the same.
This friend is seen mostly through Peri's eyes, as she and Erimem struggle to survive in the South, with Erimem (whose skin is dark enough to be taken for 'a quadroon') posing as Peri's slave.

 Aural Adventures in Time and Space!
It is no wonder Erimem isn’t won over by the Doctor’s arguments when she knows that centuries of bloodshed will be the result.
Not just a token gesture (Adric being brave or Nyssa giving up the rest of her life – and her clothes – to help the sick) but a story which both adds depth to the character without him or her seeming to be a totally different person.
The Erimem we see here is the same Erimem we’ve always seen but this time she took centre stage.

Peri's quick thicking sees her pass Erimem off as her slave, but after a run in with Eustace, both are in danger.
Despite the danger Erimem faces, it's Peri who plays the larger role and this is undoubtedly one of her finest stories.
Of course, in the hands of her creator, Erimem continues to be a delightful character.

 The Author Speaks - Iain McLaughlin - Message Board - ezboard.com
I was fairly happy with the way I'd written Erimem but when I heard Caroline playing the role in the studio and then on CD, she'd added a huge amount to the character, giving her so much life and personality and putting little nuances into lines that I'd thought were pretty functional.
Having Erimem there makes that easier - their friendship is more open to dealing with emotions than her friendship with the Doctor.
There were a couple of similarities between the Doctor and Erimem's pasts - both raised in rigid societies that planned their lives out for them.

 The TARDIS Library: Reviews for The Council of Nicaea   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
I agree that it makes no sense for someone in Erimem's position to judge Constantine as being a cruel tyrant, I agree that Constantine is most likely rather poorly characterized, and I agree that Erimem's sudden near-betrayal of her friends stretches credibility.
After all, even if Erimem never got the chance to be a despotic pharoah, she must know that all her predecessors were despots worse a thousand-fold than Constantine, and that ruling an empire in her day required ruthlessness and cruelty in extreme measure.
Not thick this time but for all her protestations of disloyalty, she was the disloyal one and I'd have been quite happy to have her stabbed.

Look at the pictures in the inside sleeve, she is a small, cute-looking woman but judging by the strength of her voice and the power behind her dialogue you could never tell that.
There is often a feeling that the Doctor and Peri are closer than the Doctor and Erimem and it is spelt out in fl and white here when he threatens to leave Erimem behind in the TARDIS at the end of episode one.
Nicola Bryant is on form here and the bond between Peri and Erimem is tested to breaking point in several tense scenes and for a while I genuinely believed the three of them would not be travelling together at the end of the story.

The Doctor, Peri and Erimem find themselves in 17th Century Paris, which isn’t exactly where they were aiming to be but they decide to explore anyway.

While the Doctor manages to cope in his own inimitable way, Peri - an American - and Erimem - a dark-skinned Egyptian - are deeply affected by the horrors and hatred of this troubled time...
Like Nyssa, she is given cause to wonder whether the Doctor feels the same degree of emotion as we humans do, or whether he feels somehow aloof or distanced from we lesser beings.

 Monitor Duty: Alan Kistler's Profile On: DOCTOR WHO ( Fifth Doctor )
In the audio play “The Eye of the Scorpion”, we learned of a companion we'd never been told about, the Egyptian princess named Erimem who traveled with the Doctor and Peri for a while.
Being a princess, Erimem could be a bit haughty at times, but she was also a strong woman who could take care of herself in a pinch.
Less popular with the Doctor was her cat, a feline who was so troublesome that the Fifth Doctor longed for K-9 to be at his side once more to teach the little critter a lesson.

 Aural Adventures in Time and Space!
Wouldn't surprise me. It's now become a past-time when meeting up with friends to swap favourite moments when Erimem didn't die or leave, such is the desire for either of those two events to happen.
My favourite 'Erimem almost leaves' moment is "Roof of the World" Part 1 for the record, narrowly beating the blatant hint from the Doctor at the end of "Three's A Crowd" ("You've always wanted to lead a colony haven't you Erimem?" says he, almost pulling off a deft Peter Purves type shedding of companion load).
Alas you could persuade me, with the minimal of swaying tactics, that Erimem wasn't even in "Nekky".

 Talk Like An Egyptian
What I found interesting about the character of Erimem is that she has grown up in an environment as a Pharaoh where every single thing she wants and says goes.
They are both so welcoming, because Erimem is a completely new character and brings a different element to each story and they're travelling exploits it just works.
Now to die dramatically and heroically is a different story but when Erimem does leaves the TARDIS I would like to think she's out there somewhere in the galaxy righting wrongs and always up for a fight.

 The Book Depository   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Caroline Morris is excellent as Erimem, reluctant successor to the crown, imperious one moment but compassionate and inquisitive the next.
There are good guest turns from Jonathan Owen as Erimem's loyal defender Antranak and Stephen Perring as conniving villain Horumshep, whilst Jack Gallagher is likeable as junior priest Fayum...
The only weakness is the slightly unsatisfying climax in the tunnels beneath the feet of the great Sphinx, but it's not week enough to spoil the listener's enjoyment of the story as a whole.
