Worshipping Osiris, Isis, and Horus

In Egyptian mythology, in the Ennead system of Heliopolis, the first couple, apart from Shu and Tefnut ( moisture and dryness ) and Geb and Nuit ( earth and sky ), are Isis and Osiris.

Isis went looking for the box so that Osiris could have a proper burial.

Enraged, Set chopped Osiris's body into fourteen pieces and scattered them all over Egypt to ensure that Isis could never find Osiris again for a proper burial.

The remainder of the story focuses on Horus, the product of Isis and Osiris ' union, who is first a vulnerable child protected by his mother and then becomes Set's rival for the throne.

According to a spell in the Pyramid Texts, Set is taking revenge for a kick Osiris gave him, whereas in a Late Period text, Set's grievance is that Osiris had sex with Nephthys, who is Set's consort and the fourth child of Geb and Nut.

When searching for or mourning Osiris, the two goddesses are often likened to falcons or kites, possibly because kites travel far in search of carrion, because the Egyptians associated their plaintive calls with mourning, or because of the goddesses ' connection with Horus, who is often represented as a falcon.
