The people accompanying our great and powerful Ra are Set, Mehen, and Ma'at. This group of gods and goddess are also in a very important level of power.
The most destructive and dangerous of the three with Ra is most definitely Set. Set is the god of disorder, chaos, storms, and violence. Set is not one to be messed with. He is also the god of the miserable desert.
Also included in the group is Mehen. Mehen is a snake god. He coils around Ra during their journey to protect him. Mehen is the kind of guy you want to be friends with.
Last, but definitely not least, is Ma'at. Ma'at being the goddess of truth and balance is very helpful in offering her services to the great Ra. It is by her decision that people can enter the underworld or go up to our Aaru, the Egyptian heavenly fields. If they are not worthy and their hearts weigh more than her feather, then they end up in my underworld.
The four of these powerful and important gods and goddesses travel through my dark and sludge filled waters. The air holds a deathly smell and the sounds of lost souls can be heard throughout the cold breeze. The group hears a slight change in the dingy waters beneath the boat they're traveling in. Apep, the serpent in my magnificent underworld, slithers by not wanting attention. But Ra is much too smart for Apep. As Ra hears him just feet away, he prepares himself for the terrific battle.
Apep springs out from under the waters and stops just in front of the sun barque. His captivating stare hits Ra. Ra not expecting the gaze was instantly enthralled and could not be shaken from the hypnosis. The others managed to get Ra out of the grips of Apep's stare.
Ra suddenly realizing what happened was blinded by rage towards Apep and was ready to end him. Ra slayed Apep dead, but because Apep was already dead to begin with, he is re birthed back to my underworld.
And the cycle will continue...
