## History

Due to Seth searching for Isis, him and his mother had to hide for decades. Isis told him constantly of Seth, who was 'an evil God who had destroyed egypt, a cold blooded God and a wicked murderer and a villain who had punished his mother into the abyss'. He believed that he should meet this God, the reason being that he wanted something to change his life. He hears of plans for him to visit Kemis, so he went to find him. He followed the caravans to find him. He was led to a shrine seemingly torn apart by warfare. Amist the broken bottles of liquor and bodies of young boys, there sat Seth drunk on liquor and incense. His intentions were never to kill Seth, and he only brought a dagger to protect himself from any other dangers. It appears since Seth was not sober he believed that he was Anubis. Seeing him, completely shattered the image that had been told to him his own life. He was immensely shocked and sat there in a daze. Seth called out Anubis's name in tears, the God that had apparently done such horrible things looked as if he was in such pain. Horus couldn't understand why he looked so desperate and what was tormenting him so much. Why would he beg for his forgiveness? That was when he realised that those pleas for forgiveness were a curse. This curse was due to Seth not wanting Anubis to grow up and leave him, he wanted him to stay by his side for the rest of eternity, an innocent child forever. His desire was so strong that it became a reality. He was so desperate he didn't realise that he was cursing Horus. Horus was immensely jealous of Anubis, taking everything for granted. When Seth held him in his arms, that was the first time that Horus had ever felt comfort. This made Horus fully accept the curse, knowing full well who made him that way. He wanted to feel the love of such a supreme and overwhelming God, he wanted to be his one and only beloved. He could misbehave and Seth would still look at him with love. He began to wish for the impossible but in the end he realised that the love directed towards him was not for him, he was simply a substitute for Anubis. In order to receive his love he made sure that he was never sober, he watched his mind slowly wither away until he faced the truth. That the curse would bring neither one of them happiness. The more he desired to be his son, the more his existence would fade and become stagnant. He realised that due to the God's beginning to live like humans, they began to become weak like humans. The reason that him and Anubis couldn't become Gods was because they lacked the nobility of a God, they were weak like humans. It is implied that Horus still harbours these feelings of wanting to be loved by Seth. He eventually decided to return to Isis. Although it was not blissful it was the love of a God who had eyes only for him. Finally Nut woke up Geb from their long ass slumber and went to search for Isis. They finally found her in the lowest and most wretched of places. Horus was found looking as if he had BEEB cursed to look like a puny and undeveloped child. Nut took him to Thoth in search for wisdom. Thoth told her that Horus was incomplete and needed someone to strengthen him. Thoth told her to go to the Sun God for help, which is what they did. Despite the sun God ridiculing and then kicking isis and Horus out, after this encounter Horus's growth was no longer stunted. Its unknown fully what caused Horus to grow up. This is all we currently know about Horus's backstory pre-chapter 1.
