An Undying Evil |
Featuring: |
The Queen of Evil |
Synopsis: |
In Thebes, 1000 BC, Nagana is "called the daughter of Isis", a faithful worshiper, but she is envious of the goddess' hold over the city and plots evil. Isis strikes back at her, leveling the temple, and Nagana spends the next 3000 years as a statue until archaeologists uncover her and she comes back to life. Isis realizes that she cannot destroy Nagana directly, so she resurrects Kalkor, a faithful worshiper and priest-to-be that had stood up against Nagana in Thebes. |
