01:05At the center of Egyptian mythology stood Osiris the god of life.

02:13Religion shaped every decision in society.
02:16But where there is harmony, jealousy always exists.
02:20Osiris had a brother named Set the god of chaos, deserts, and storms.

02:34He waited, he observed, and he planned.
02:36This teaches us that the most dangerous betrayal often comes.
02:40Quietly from those closest to us.
02:43In ancient Egyptian history, chaos was never sudden.
02:46It was always prepared.
02:47This is where the story of the first mummy begins.

03:06Two ancient texts this moment marked a cosmic imbalance because Osiris was not only a king, he was the foundation.
03:15Of order the Nile carried the coffin far away, beyond Egypt until it reached distant lands near the Mediterranean coast, hidden.
03:22Inside a tree, the body of Osiris remained lost while Egypt slowly fell into disorder.
03:29Isis refused to accept this fate.
03:32She transformed grief into purpose and began one of the earliest recorded journeys of devotion in human mythology.
03:39Disguised as a mortal, woman Isis traveled across deserts' villages and foreign lands asking questions, listening carefully and using her wisdom rather than.
03:50Force ancient Egyptians believed this journey represented determination, loyalty, and intelligence.
03:56After a long search, Isis finally discovered the coffin she recovered the body of, Osiris, and brought it back to Egypt hoping to restore.
04:06Balance but chaos was not finished, said.
04:09Discovered the body and in rage attempted to destroy Osiris, completely forcing Isis to act, quickly and secretly.
04:17This is where Egyptian mythology changes human history forever.
