god of life
Son of Osiris and Isis, and something of a weakling as a child, Horus was constantly at the mercy of his uncle Set. when Osiris travelled around Egypt, Set send serpents to sting Horus and diseases to kill him. But Isis protected Horus from Set. After Osiris's murder, Horus and Isis fled to the marshes, where they lived on the edge of starvation. While Horus was growing up, Osiris would emerged from the underworld from time to time to tech him the arts of warfare. Finally, no longer a weakling, but a fall grown warrior god, Horus attacked Set to avenge his father's death. After a long series of battles, Horus wounded Set badly, defeated him, and sent him retreating to his desert home which Ra forbade him ever to leave again. Horus was always represented as a male figure with the head of a falcon whose eyes were the sun and the moon.
