Enchanted~Yugioh

      Welcome to the world of Enchanted where a fanciful pharaoh travels through time, meets a fierce CEO who, in contrast to his excited little brother, doesn’t believe the pharaoh’s story at all but still tries to help him get back home. Fantastical and dangerous adventures arise with the arrival of a murderous thief whose only goal is to kill the pharaoh. The pharaoh’s most devoted priest, a young Egyptologist and her shadowy brother complete our players in this thrilling tale. Here you can follow their story in picture (by @siosiri) and text (by @mutemwija).

After a few times of relentless “REMATCH!” gaming visits one must get creative,y’know??

Listen my dudes Ancient Egypt existed for a really fuckass long time. Literally just Pharaonic civilization lasted 3,000 years. That’s not even including predynastic civilization and Roman rule. If you lump that in you’re looking at more like… 5,000 years. Like. If you want a comparison of how long that is: THE YEAR IS CURRENTLY 2018. TWO THOUSAND. TWO-THIRDS OF ANCIENT EGYPTIAN PHARAONIC CIVILIZATION HAVE HAPPENED SINCE THE ‘BIRTH OF JESUS CHRIST’ We comparatively just entered the Third Intermediate Period. The Greeks will not take over for another 700~ years. Cleopatra will not be born until the year 2931.

It’s a really long time guys.

Anyway look. Listen. I sat my ass down and wrote out a timeline of “when shit happened if you started at 1AD” because I know backwards numbers are hard to process but here’s an abridged version. If the first Egyptian Pharaoh came to power in 1AD then…

300: step pyramid built 450: Great Pyramid at Giza built 815: Pepi II dies and civil war breaks out 950: Egypt re-unified 1350: Middle Kingdom ends 1450: New Kingdom begins 1520: Hatshepsut is on the throne 1650: Ahkenaten switches to monotheistic religion and builds a new city 1680: Tutankhamun dies 1720: Ramesses II ‘the great’ ascends to the throne 1740: World’s first peace treaty signed 1790: Ramesses II dies leaving way too many children 1920: Egypt breaks into 2 states again And now we get to ~~~~the future~~~~. If we started at 1AD all of this stuff hasn’t happened yet 2050: Briefly re-united as a single state 2180: Civil war 2250: Nubian kings take over 2335: Assyrian conquest 2665: Alexander the Great conquers Egypt 2930: Cleopatra VII born 2970: Cleopatra VII dies. Egypt falls to Rome. Fin.

And that’s just starting with the Pharaohs. If you wanted to start with Predynastic Egypt, you can go ahead and ADD ONE THOUSAND YEARS to all of those dates

I hate that this is still getting notes but that it’s getting notes *without the timeline addition* like c’mon, man. I had to do MATHS for this. I DID MATHS FOR YOU PEOPLE AND ALL I GOT WAS A BUNCH OF RACISTS

Who needs Atlantis when Ancient Egypt was basically the Precursor Civilization the Greeks and Romans lived in the shadow of?

(It’s not Chapter 8, it’s Chapter 7.5😅)

Since Prideshipping came up short in chapter 7 and today's Kaiba’s birthday, I thought I’d write a little extra scene. After all, we all need some pointless, bittersweet fluff (and some angst at the end because apparently I just can't help myself) in these tiring times ❤️️

In which Seto and Atem spend the night with what’s most typical for them.

Just two sisters chatting~

(folks have been asking about these two for a while, and I’ve had their designs in the back of my head since starting Stick-Gods; so, FINALLY)

Myth Event Day 4: Favorite Egyptian deity pair

Isis and Osiris - goddess of magic, marriage, and wisdom and god of the Underworld

[amntenofre]

“O You Gods, I am Isis, Osiris’s sister, Who wept for the father of the Gods, Osiris, Who put an end to the massacring of the Two Lands. His seed is within my womb. It is as son of the foremost of the Ennead Who will rule this land, become heir to Geb, speak on His father’s behalf, and slay Seth, the adversary of His father Osiris” (from spell 148 of the Coffin Texts, translation from “The Literature of Ancient Egypt” by W.K.Simpson) detail from one of the coffins of King TutankhAmon (now in the Cairo Museum): the Goddess Isis with outstretched wings and kneeling on the hieroglyphic symbol for “gold”

[the-god-of-illusion]

Egyptian mythology from A to Z:

[I] - Isis was linked with funerary rites, motherhood, protection and magic.

As the wife of Osiris, Isis assisted her husband during his earthly reign. In the Pyramid Texts, allusions are made that indicate that Isis foresaw her husband’s murder. Following his death, Isis tirelessly searched for his body so that he may be properly buried and may rest in peace in the Underworld. Through her magic, she brought Osiris back to life so that he could impregnate her with their son Horus.

[the-god-of-illusion]

Egyptian mythology from A to Z:

[H] - Horus was usually depicted as a falcon, or a falcon-headed man. His right eye was the sun or morning star, representing power and quintessence, and his left eye was the moon or evening star, representing healing.
