Thank you for the summary of season one. I had a hard time understanding the russian translation. I thought sikhmet is a piece of shit but she is only helping but she still look like a bad guy. I saw the rapey scene in chapter 32 omg poor Set but hey i saw his face.
thank you for the summary!! i knew this is kinda weird for me as someone who prefer mlm and wlw ships over mlw but i actually shipped seth with nephthys, since shes the only one he seems to be happy with. but maaannn now that i found out that nephthys loved osiris instead makes me sooo conflicted i just want seth to be happy :(((
At least horus is more decent than his dad (=・ω・=)
Is he though? I just saw the first chapter (or the welcome ?? idk) of season 2 and it was... not pleasant. It might be Osiris possessing Horus but idk
oh thank god
Thanks you for your comment!

If you know can you tell me what's the black tatoo that Anubi gives to Seth ( And i see that was from Nephy ) it's seems a curse...
And in the end what's happend to Seth? What's punishment Maat give to him? Is not a good anymore? Or he lost the title of "God of Desert " ?
Wait i still dont understand about the real and fake nepyh thingy
And also isnt this mess all started from isis? Like sure osiris is the one to blame but why does isis cursed seth!? He's a bloody victim here and she still takes on her husband side wtf?
Sekmet, the goddess of disaster might have something to do with the mirror. She trapped the real nepyh in the mirror and made the fake one to be with set. Set is a victim but Isis sees it as set stole her husband because set slept with osiris. I think Isis is messed up. She should hate osiris but instead she hates set instead .
Spoiler...
Also I think the reason set is infertile is bc osiris took his seeds and turn them into flowers that he used to bind set and rape him. He didn't like the fact that nepyh married set and since set wanted a child, osiris took his seeds so he can't produce a child.
tysm. osiris was giving me such weird vibes and your summary confirmed my suspicions.
oh thanku soo much for summary of season 1 cuz i saw raws but couldn't understand it at all so tht wht happnd so far i m supper excited for season 2 and also tht part is shocking tht Anubis is actually son of Orisis just asking if someone know(in real history its not true right tht Anubis is son of Orisis ?) but yeah since its fantasy its more interesting too read!!!
In Egyptian mythology, yes Anubis is the son of Osiris.
okay i found my answer i read on Wiki history
thankuu!!
Wow i'm so glad i found a link to this comment. I was so confused about the scenes cuz there were so many flashbacks, memories going forward and backward from different point of views... set, osiris, isis, sekhmet. I think kinda i got it now so thank you!
I just have one question. I stumbled upon this comment and i kinda need some of your opinions on this cuz I'm still new to this story and i read it all at once, so I'm still processing everything.
.

I'm shocked no one is pointing it out.
"Why have you ONCE AGAIN TAKEN AWAY FROM ME what is mine" - Osiris's line.
Plus how Sekhmet said few chapters ago that Horus reminds her of young Osiris who from her sentence sounded like an innocent, bright and softhearted god.
I think there is much more to Osiris's story.
Absolutely not defending the guy but I'm really curious about him.
But judging by the line "Dear god of creation, why have you forsaken me like this?" And "I refuse to live by your rules. I will use the power that has been forbidden to me"
Maybe someone dear to him was killed and he couldn't bring them back because he is god of life not death... Or they killed themselves? Or he tried to kill himself and couldn't? Who knows but author heavily hints there is much more to Osiris and imo something big happened and he has gone mad. But why Seth?
I hope we will get answers in S2.
There are some opinions about that here:

Hi! I made this comment a long time ago with RAWS and a translator app and some of it actually didn't make sense then so it might not be accurate, the recent translations makes it clear. Egyptian mythology is not as well documented as Greek so there is a great opportunity for creative license, I'm looking forward to what the author will create
Oh damn, thank you so much for this!
Well after i read the story i think this explanation sums it up pretty cuz i think it's very accurate, also there are new characters in your comment that hasn't been shown yet that you wrote in your last paragraph and at the same time with that is also the thing with anubis realising that osiris is his father. I think those things will happen in the next chapters cuz i can't seem to remember that they were shown in these chapters. But anyway reaaaally thank you about this explanation, i needed it after reading all the chapters at once.
This is by no means 100% accurate but just based on my perception
Writing this as I read, so tend to ramble, sorry

We started with the myth of Set killing Osiris, which did happen, but it wasn't because of a game. This is because Set found out that Anubis is Osiris son. Set very much wanted to have a child but he's unable to do so because he's actually infertile. To make him happy, Nephthys asked Osiris to impregnate her, although they did so in magical rather than a carnal way. So Anubis was conceived between Osiris and Nephthys, and Nephthys passed him off as Set's child. This is also the reason why Osiris can possess Anubis, as he was his child. Sekhmet, as is her nature as goddess of disaster, told Set the truth, hence, he confronted Osiris.
Now, this is where it gets interesting yaoi style. Osiris is the god of life, but he can't create new gods, only goddesses can do that. To fulfill his duty, he married Isis so they can procreate. Osiris is actually in love with Set, and although he let his union with Nepthys happen, he can't stand the thought of him having a child with her., and ultimately caused his infertility. He only agreed to helping Nephthys beget a child in exchange for having Set for one night
So now back to the night Set confronted Osiris, Osiris drugged the wine he has given Set so he could have his way with him as and prevent him into turning to sand to escape. He also held Anubis' soul as hostage so Set will do his bidding. Set actually loves Anubis as his own son, despite knowing he didn't father him, so he begs Osiris not to kill Anubis in exchange of doing whatever he wants. So they have sex, and Isis witnessed it.
Earlier that night, Isis confronted Nephthys after learning the truth from Sekhmet. She confessed to Isis everything and asked her to kill her, but Isis refused. This seems to be the reason why there are two Nephthys, the fake one in the dungeon and the real one in Hathor's mirror. Isis then went to confront Osiris and Set and caught them in the act. In her despair, she tried to kill Anubis but didn't went through with it. She also cursed every one with "The more you want it, the harder it is to obtain". What I gleaned from the rough translations is that Isis' ultimate goal is revenge on Osiris, Set and all the gods that turned their backs on her after Osiris dies. In fact, her real reason for reviving Osiris and conceiving Horus with him is ultimately to help her with her revenge. Whether Horus wins or not, she has prepared for war by enlisting foreign powers, Her ultimate plan is to flood the Nile and instead of just eradicating humans, she intends to include gods as well, This is also the reason why she sent Horus to have Nut's blessing instead of Geb, when the latter could have helped with his battle with Set as the god of the earth. Having dominion over the sky from Nut will save Horus when Isis floods the Nile.
Now, back to Set and Osiris after thee deed was done, Sekhmet put Osiris to sleep and help secure Anubis soul. With Anubis safe, they planned on killing Osiris. It was Sekhmet who hinted throwing Osiris in the Nile. Osiris can't be killed unless he wills it, so Set pretended to commit suicide so Osiris will follow him. Osiris may be the god of life but he can't create new gods or resurrrect dead ones, so Set smartly assumed that his obsession with him will make the god of life follow him to Duat.
After Osiris was murdered, Set became mad and very destructive. He changed from a loving father to an abusive one. One time he hit Anubis and Anubis ran away to Duat. This may be when he met Osiris and got possessed. Unknown to Anubis, Set went on a rampage when he went missing. It was during this time a young Horus went to meet him just to see for himself the god his mother hated so much. . Drunk and high on incense, Set mistook the young Horus for Anubis and became very affectionate to him, begging him for forgiveness. This was when he unwittingly passed down the curse from Isis to both Set and Anubis, with added personal terms which was to stay as his son, thus preventing them from growing and becoming Gods.
This was also the time when the young Horus fell in love with Set, as he quoted "I wanted to be the only one who loves you." Sigh, like father like son.
Horus coveted Set's love, and kept on keeping him drunk and high so he keeps receiving the love meant for Anubis. However, this causes Set to decline, so Horus decided to give up "being loved as Anubis" which counted as one of the criteria for breaking the curse , specifically "giving up something you really want". This caused him to grew into godhood, even if only partial.
Now, back to Osiris and his interferences, since tricked to die and stay in Duat, he's been trying to take Set to Duat too. Isis' ultimate revenge is for Set's soul be eaten as punishment so that he can't even go to Duat and be with Osiris
So ending stated Nephthys actually loved Osiris, considering what Osiris said that Set only love Nephthys because she enables him to be a respected familyman which differs greatly from Osiris deep burning obsessive love, I like the idea that Horus might be the first guy he will actually love as a person. He's kinda rapey tho so boohoo to that
Poor Anubis, learning Osiris is his dad probably made him give up "what he wanted most" = starting as a family all over again with Nephthys and Seth. His life is also at stake. At least we can finally see his partial god form
Also who's the hot foreign god, Bacchus?
Hngggh the welcome for Season 2 is soooo hot. Show us Horus' face demmit
