GODS OF EGYPT

The goddess Isis had poisoned the sun god Re. She watched as various deities approached the ailing divinity, each desperately trying to heal him, but none could find a cure to his suffering. One second the god was burning up. The next, he was freezing. He shook. His heart was on fire. The situation was getting desperate, but the gods had little information to go on. All they knew was that he’d been bitten by a snake and poisoned by its venom. Isis could help, but she held back for now. After all, this poisoning was all part of her plan to learn the sun god’s secret name, a key to his power, hidden deep in his belly – and he wouldn’t give it up easily.
