Summary
Few know the whole story. From what Bek recall, it goes something like this : before history began, Egypt was the birthplace of all life, a paradise worthy of the gods who created it. So the gods decided to live there alongside their lesser creation, Man. There was no mistaking the gods amongst the mortals who worshipped them; the gods were taller, with gold running through their veins instead of blood, and they could transform at will into all manner of frightening beasts. Egypt itself was divided between two mighty brothers. Osiris, the god of life, was the beloved king of all the lands made bountiful by the Nile. His brother, Set, ruled the far barren desert, finding both strength and bitterness in his isolation. But then time came for Osiris to crown a new king : his only son, Horus. It was a decision that would test the brothers' bond and the fate of all Egypt.But the gods are only half of the tale. It had become clear that they couldn't shape the course of destiny alone. A man of exceptional judgement, wisdom and fortitude would be needed. Unfortunately, Bek was not such a man. But before dismissing his younger foolhardy self, remember : never doubt a man fighting for the one thing as powerful as any god. Love.
