Conflict

In the myth of Ra and Hathor, there is conflict. Ra is getting no respect from any of Earth's people. He doesn't like this and becomes very upset. His eye created Hathor who was sent down to Earth, but on the return Hathor became Sekhemet. Who was sent down to the world and killed. Ra didn't want this so he order 7,000 beers colored red and set them in a field she thought it was blood. She drank it and became drunk and could not kill any humans.

Character Development of Ra

My myth was fairly short, so the character really did not have any time to develop into a different person, or an enhanced person. Though Ra is a giving person each day he gives his subjects warmth from the sun and light from it. Together Ra does not change much he remains the same.
                                                        

House of Ra (4)

Ra, he didn't live anywhere. In the day he lived as the sun.
Though at night he flowed down the Nile River, towards Anubis. Each night Ra struggled to pass through this challenge. But he lead the people who got stuck down there and showed them the way back. (Nile on Right)
