“Yes. They couldn’t kill him before. They didn’t really think about what would happen to another realm if they banished him there. He’s a demon and a void being, which is how he was able to create his mate. They tried numerous ways to kill him and he’d always come back. You’re going to have to figure out how to kill two void beings this time.”

“I’m pretty sure I know, but who was Harami?” Mazen asked.

“Harami was Apep. Khalid mentioned Apophis when you were researching, but they are the same god.”

Mazen looked horrified, but none of us really knew what that meant. Mazen turned to look at us.

“Setcouldbe helpful and was only villainized during a certain period of time. He used to be worshipped. Most of the old Egyptian gods were neither good nor bad, just complicated. Except Apep. Apep was just evil. Setwasimmune, so he joined the fight when Apep kept trying to eat the sun. We could use Iman’s help if she wants to give it because Bastet beat him a few times, too.

“I wouldn’t know how to kill either of them because it’s never been done before. We can’t let them destroy another realm and if Fairy has recovered, then the fairies who can’t pass deserve a realm where they can be free. We shouldn’t send them back to Fairy just because it’s convenient. We need to figure out how to kill them for good and destroy their bones so they can’t come back.”

Khalid was chatting up a storm, and he looked frustrated. This would be the part where he dropped some history and wisdom on us and he couldn’t because he was stuck as a jackal.

“Khalid said we’re totally fucked if Apep is back,” Liam announced.

There were several Egyptian students here since the Egyptian school had been closed for renovations for a few years.So, we knew Harami was Apep, but we still didn’t know who Apep was in this life.

And I didn’t begin to know who to kill one unkillable demon, much less his mate with the same power.
