The Nephew Takes All

After Horus grew up, under the protection of his mother, he went off to find Set so he could reclaim the throne that was rightfully his. When he found him, he convinced him to meet with him and the major gods to decide who gets the throne. Horus made a very convincing case that since he was the original king's son, that he should inherit it. Most gods agreed except for one, Ra. Ra wanted Set to be the king because he stronger and something schmancy and cool. The gods decided to have a feast to decide over who gets the crown. During it, Isis tricked Set into admitting the the son of a family keeps the father's belonging is he dies. So like the gullible lil' god he was, he was outraged by the trickery and declared war on Horus to decide who wins ( I love that choice). So they both gathered armies and attacked each other countless times for 80 years, that's a lot of bloodshed( afterwards the desert was red instead of yellow, or gold, or whatever it is, idk) After that time Horus challenged Set to a duel, but Horus had to go to where he was. So Isis gave him a gold boat to travel on. When Horus neared, Set( for some reason as a big, red, hippo) jumped out of the water and attacked Horus' boat, when Set neared the boat, Horus threw a large harpoon that broke in to his head( that will make him more red) and killed him instantly. After his victory, Horus went back to the palace and took a nap on one of the beds( I would've too).
