An offering which the king gives to Wepwawet, lord of Abydos,
Anubis, who is in the embalming place,
and the gods, the lords of Poqer,
that they may cause you to be radiant in the sky,
mighty in the earth,
and justified in the necropolis,
that you may receive the offerings which come forth from their presence.
-Writings from the Ancient World - Elizabeth Frood
Yinepu comes to you when he is needed. When there is work to be done, and a path to walk. Calling him a God of the Dead seems too simple a thing for all that he encompasses, for there is a great comfort that comes from the touch of his hands. He is protection and renewal. He is both caretaker of the dead and a healer of the living. He is there at the weighing of your heart, and upholds Ma'at eternally. To say he’s complex is an understatement. But he is certainly a Name everyone I think should come to know.
And please, if there’s a name you want to see me sculpt. A piece from antiquity? I always take suggestions, and will try to fit them all in one by one into my schedule. I love hearing from you all and hope you continue to send messages.

This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
