A very interesting take on Set’s cyclical battle with Apep aboard Ra’s nightly ride through the Duat on the Mesektet.
Oddly, the part of LeaMssz’s that I am loving the most is the highly stylized waves at the bottom of the boat. Totally have the vibe of being cut wood! Love it!
Set is so critically important the Ancient Kemet beliefs.
Unfortunately history, and developments starting with the Third Intermediate Period, shifted Set to be demonized in ways that he was never originally associated with.
Is he an asshole?
Oh totally.
Can he be a dick?
100%
But there’s only one God capable of protecting Ra from the great serpent and that is a God of a totally different type of Chaos like Set.
But if you happen to be haningout ot with him, stay clear if he offers you any lettuce to eat.
Just… pass.
