LAWS OF MAAT

                    Introduction.

Pact of Maat:

                    Because Osiris innate Coldness, and Set's innate Passion, they were too much unbalanced to sire Progeny who would follow Maat. they needed Childer to guide and protect Egypt, with both the strenght of the Undead Brothers. Then Osiris imagined the Pact of Maat: By creating Childer with their mixed Blood, the Childer would be better prepared to fight the Beast and so Follow Maat.

Furthermore, Osiris had realized the Two-Lands were not the Lower and Higher Egypt, but the Land of the Living, and the Land of the Dead. What was the purpose of guiding and protecting the Living if they were to be alone in the Duat? Osiris knew one of them had to join them there, and guide them as the other would guide the Living. Set's passion was a thing of life, a passion that could both inspire his people and feel his enemies with dread. In the Duat, his passion would lead him to Oblivion. Osiris own psychee was badly prepared for the Beast, and his years of undeath have been a mental torture only his temporary death had relieved. In the other hand, he was well prepared for the challenges of the other world. So the choice was easy.

Set would remain in the Land of the Living, and Osiris would be ritually killed, and his body, cut in tiny parts, would be buried in the whole Egypt, to tie his soul to the Two-Lands, both the Lower and Higher Egypt and the Land of the Living and the Land of the Dead.

Before his sacrifice, Osiris and Set mixed their own Vitae in a magickal jar prepared by Isis and Nephtys. There would be enough Vitae for Seven Childer. Set was forbidden to Embrace other Childer, to keep the Balance. Horus was to make sure this would be respected, and would give his Dead Father, now King of the Duat, informations about the Land of the Living.
