“You’re supposed to represent power!”

This episode about Egyptian mythology also includes history about The Great Race for Mercy, during which Darien mistakenly refers to an important sled dog as “Fox” when his name was actually Togo. Deepest apologies. Those responsible have been sacked. 

Other topics include many Horus Variants, a Peregrine Falcon PSA, Young Horus as a symbol of hope, a very cool-sounding festival tradition that was probably pretty meh actually, strategic connections to godly iconography, a side tangent about sixth grade social studies, and Horus being a big, fat cheater. 

Content Warning: This episode contains mentions of and conversations about gun violence, death, and the afterlife. 

Spoilers for SMITE, Aladdin: King of Thieves, The Mummy Returns, and Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian
