Isis Returns for Horus

    Years had passed and Horus had become a man.  Isis was alone, she had lost her husband, lost her kingdom, and her child was far away from her.  She longed to see him once again.  Isis returned once again to the thatched house of her sister Goddesses Renenutet and Wedjet.  Her belly was once again round with child and she could not wait to share this news with her sisters.  She knocked on the door and a young man answered that was strong and handsome, he stood straight and looked at Isis.
    Isis embraced him and said "I am your Mother."
    Horus seeing her round belly and knowing that his father was dead pushed her away. "Who is it that you have been with that you love more then my father and me!" Horus shouted.
    "You make your Father proud, but it was only with your father in the realm of the dead that I lay with." Isis replied.
Later that night while Isis lay asleep, Horus listened in on her.  He heard her mown in the embrace of a man and became angered once again.  Horus burst into the room, but he did not see another man in the room with his mother only the shadows of his father and mother embrace of love.  Startled Isis awoke from the dream to find Horus.  "What creature does lay with you!" cried Horus.
   " It is your Father that comes in my dreams from the land of the dead" answered Isis.
    "I wish to speak with my father in my dreams." Horus said.
