Rain fell on egypt as Nut wept for Osiris.  Geb drank the tears as Genisis occured.  The child grew in the womb of Isis.  The two Goddess slept not as Goddesses but as tired women.  they feed bear and breed to the Ka of Osiris,  however they where not quiet about this and one day Sets men seized them and bound them as slaves.  But the wounds of the ropes did not cut as deep as the wound of losing Osiris.

    "Let me see my Son."  Demanded Osiris  "If I can not look upon you let me see my son.  A god should be able to look upon the face of a god.  Since I can'nt see you."
    "True.  I do not show you my face but I look upon you.  I am the desert, I am the sun, I am the stars, I am a man, I am a woman, I am everything." Answered Atum.
    "How long will I live" asked Osiris
    Atum began "millions and millions of years"
    "and in the end?" questioned Osiris.
    "It shall be as in the begining, empty past, empty future. I shall destroy everything and start a new.  I am that I am I will return to myself."  Atum stated.

    Set brought the Goddess Isis befor him and made her kneel. He mocked her for her dedication to the dead.  But Isis was proud and would only love Osiris.   Set ordered her imprised inside a tomb (knowing how much she loved the sun)  He made her weave day and night,  but Isis was weaving more then thread she was weaving a new life.

    Osiris saw his dear wife chained in the tomb as his own body decayed.  He set to work on his new city, for it is not the nature of Gods to lay dorment for long.  And it was that while his child grew inside Isis so He built the city of the dead, Osiris now the God of the underworld.

    Because Set wanted fine cloth he demanded that Isis teach her secrets of spinning to his servents.  So it was that she taught them not only the secrets of weaveing but of weaving life.  She taught them to pray as they weaved.

    Isis grew round as moons waxed and waned.  Horus was coming.
