Ra is the Egyptian god of the sun, life, and creation. He could physically become the sun. It is believed that he was the father of all creation and the king of deities. He has been combined with other deities like Horus who became Ra-Horakhty. The creation of plants, seasons, animals, and even humankind is believed to have been because of Ra to Egyptians.

Isis is the Egyptian goddess of healing and magic. She has become one of the most important deities, ever since the dynastic age progressed, from being an obscure goddess. Her parents are believed to be Geb and Nut, and was married to Osiris. In one myth, it is said that Isis searched for all of Osiris' body parts to put him back together. This was after Set became jealous of his brother and decided to kill him. After Isis revived Osiris, they had a child which was Horus.

Horus is the god of the sky and war in Egypt mythology. His parents are Osiris and Isis. He had the ability to transform into many different animals and forms. Horus was often depicted as a falcon whose right eye was the sun or morning star, representing power and quintessence, and whose left eye was the moon or evening star, representing healing. In myths, it is mentioned that Horus would fight his Uncle Set for what Set did to Horus' father.
