LOGLINE
Prologue – In 1100 BC A god named Ra who was the creator of everything in ancient Egyptian religion, revered as the king of the gods and the father of the pharaohs. He had a brother named Khonsu who was the god of the moon, time, and fertility. The two brothers lived in harmony until their father showed them a necklace that has the potential to slaughter another god/goddess. The necklace is only for a person who can withstand its magic power but if the magic is too strong it will change the user’s energy to pure evil. Khonsu wanted his hands on it so he could become the next king and be above his brother who is jealous of his brother. As Khonsu wore the next his body couldn’t withstand the overflowing magic which turned his skin gray, and his enegry became pure evil. Khonsu attacked his hometown which started a great war. Ra had defeated his brother and locked him away in a tomb inside a temple deep under Egypt. Ra took the necklace from his brother and hid it where his brother could never find it….
