The Book of the Dead, the collection of spells which aided a person in the afterlife, had the Egyptian name of the Book of going forth by day. They helped people avoid the perils of the afterlife and also aided their existence, containing spells to assure “not dying a second time in the underworld”, and to “grant memory always” to a person. In the Egyptian religion it was possible to die in the afterlife and this death was permanent.

Metaphorically, I’m the man But literally, I don’t know what I’d do

a modern cerberus that was reborn as a man. he feels like he’s constantly being pulled in three different directions at once with too many voices echoing through his head. he’s guarding the gates of hell that’s trapped up in his own mind. he’s destructive and impulsive with a bite far worse than his bark.
