Ma’at Goddess of Justice
Ma’at weighs your heart against her feather of truth on her giant set of scales. If your heart is pure and as light as her feather, she allows you to enter the afterlife. If your heart is heavy, she feeds it to Ammit, the heart devourer.
Ma’at visited Aaron one night and ripped his heart from his chest!

THE 9 BOWS OF ANUBIS – A GRAPHIC NOVEL
Meet the family … Akhenaten was Tutankhamun’s father, and Queen Nefertiti was his stepmother. Tutankhamun became king at 9 years when his father died. But the Vizier Ay wanted the throne for himself and Tutankhamun died (suspiciously), at 19 and the vizier became the new Pharaoh, but only for 4 years. General Horemheb ruled Egypt next for 14 years, restoring peace and prosperity to the country. Tutankhamun married Ankhesenamun, Queen Nefertiti’s third daughter, his own stepsister. They married for power and politics, not because they were in love or it was a good idea.
