The Myth Of Osiris .
In the beginning there was only Nun. Nun started at the dark waters of chaos. As the days went by, there was one day that a hill popped out of the waters. This hill was then named, Ben-Ben. The first god, whose name wast Atum, stood on the hill. Atum then coughed out Shu, who is the god of the air, and Tefnut, the goddess of moisture. After these gods were created, they had two children. The first child was named Geb, the god of the earth. Then, there was Nut, the goddess of the sky. Shu, lifted up Nut so she can be a canopy over Geb. Nut and Geb then had four children named Osiris, Isis, Seth, and Nephthys. Osiris then became ruler of the earth and Isis became queen. Myth says, Osiris was a good king and ruled for many years. However, Seth was jealous of his brother Osiris , because Seth wanted to be ruler himself. The days go by and Seth's jealousy came to an end by murdering his brother , Osiris. Osiris went down into the underworld and Seth remained up on earth and became king. Osiris and Isis had one son called Horus. Horus battled against Seth and won victory in Seth's throne. After Horus won the battle he became king of the earth his father, Osiris, became king of the underworld.
