Listen my dudes Ancient Egypt existed for a really fuckass long time. Literally just Pharaonic civilization lasted 3,000 years. That’s not even including predynastic civilization and Roman rule. If you lump that in you’re looking at more like… 5,000 years. Like. If you want a comparison of how long that is: THE YEAR IS CURRENTLY 2018. TWO THOUSAND. TWO-THIRDS OF ANCIENT EGYPTIAN PHARAONIC CIVILIZATION HAVE HAPPENED SINCE THE ‘BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST’ We comparatively just entered the Third Intermediate Period. The Greeks will not take over for another 700~ years. Cleopatra will not be born until the year 2931.

It’s a really long time guys.

(It’s not Chapter 8, it’s Chapter 7.5😅)

Since Prideshipping came up short in chapter 7 and today's Kaiba’s birthday, I thought I’d write a little extra scene. After all, we all need some pointless, bittersweet fluff (and some angst at the end because apparently I just can't help myself) in these tiring times ❤️️

In which Seto and Atem spend the night with what’s most typical for them.

In which Isis has to make a choice and finds herself between the devil and the deep blue sea.

Happy reading!

Myth Event Day 4: Favorite Egyptian deity pair

Isis and Osiris - goddess of magic, marriage, and wisdom and god of the Underworld

#egyptian mythology #It's also worth mentioning #that after she put osiris together again #Isis morphed into a sparrowhawk and flew over osiris' corpse #and that's how she got pregnant with horus #Because osiris may have been dead but he was still fertile #Isn't that romantic #isis #ancient egypt

“O You Gods, I am Isis, Osiris’s sister, Who wept for the father of the Gods, Osiris, Who put an end to the massacring of the Two Lands. His seed is within my womb. It is as son of the foremost of the Ennead Who will rule this land, become heir to Geb, speak on His father’s behalf, and slay Seth, the adversary of His father Osiris” (from spell 148 of the Coffin Texts, translation from “The Literature of Ancient Egypt” by W.K.Simpson) detail from one of the coffins of King TutankhAmon (now in the Cairo Museum): the Goddess Isis with outstretched wings and kneeling on the hieroglyphic symbol for “gold”

#It's going to be isis centered until the new chapter #for reasons #ancient egypt

Egyptian mythology from A to Z:

[I] - Isis was linked with funerary rites, motherhood, protection and magic.

As the wife of Osiris, Isis assisted her husband during his earthly reign. In the Pyramid Texts, allusions are made that indicate that Isis foresaw her husband’s murder. Following his death, Isis tirelessly searched for his body so that he may be properly buried and may rest in peace in the Underworld. Through her magic, she brought Osiris back to life so that he could impregnate her with their son Horus.

Egyptian mythology from A to Z:

[H] - Horus was usually depicted as a falcon, or a falcon-headed man. His right eye was the sun or morning star, representing power and quintessence, and his left eye was the moon or evening star, representing healing.
