pepeverse: pepeyptian king with isis

pepeheb the king with isis (left) isis was a major goddess in ancient Egyptian religion whose worship spread throughout the world. Isis was first mentioned in the Old Kingdom (c. 2686 – c. 2181 BCE) as one of the main characters of the Osiris myth, in which she resurrects her slain brother and husband, the divine king Osiris, and produces and protects his heir, Horus. She was believed to help the dead enter the afterlife as she had helped Osiris, and she was considered the divine mother of the phepraoh, who was likened to Horus. Her maternal aid was invoked in healing spells to benefit ordinary pepes. Originally, she played a limited role in royal rituals and temple rites, although she was more prominent in funerary practices and magical texts. She was usually portrayed in art as a pepe woman wearing a throne-like hieroglyph on her head.
