As the group of Ra, Set, Mehen, and Ma'at make their way through the dark waters of my underworld they hear a subtle change in the waves. Just as they looked down, they saw the figure of Apep slither by.
Ra knew Apep was ready for the daily battle between the two. Apep, despite losing the battle each time, was ready to fight. Each time Apep saw Ra he knew that in the back of his mind he would always lose, but he was determined to take him down.
There was an eerie feeling in the air as the four gods and goddesses roamed over my gloomy river. Off in the distance Apep glides just feet below the surface of the water. He was preparing to attack Ra, whether it took hypnosis, or just eating him whole.
Everyone in the solar barque looked around their bleak environment, studying their surroundings to try and understand what advantages they may have over the hellish serpent.
The barque came to a halt when Ra spotted Apep just under ten feet ahead of them. Ra is ready to kill Apep. Although, because Apep is already in my dwelling place, he will be brought back to life. Thus, keeping the continuous cycle of their battles.
Just as Ra looked over the boat, Apep broke through the water and stared Ra down. This time Apep was going to use the method of hypnosis on Ra.
As Ra was enthralled and captivated by the serpent's hypnotic stare, the others on the barque saw what was happening and rescued Ra from his trance. As soon as Ra regained his senses, he slays Apep and make his way through the rest of my grave home. Ra has defeated Apep once again and the others and himself will continue on to their daily travels.
