Sister of Osiris and Isis. Wife of Set, mother of
Anubis. Born on the 5th and last day of the
epagomenal days. Sometimes seen as a goddess
of incredible sadness, due mostly to dissatisfaction
with her wandering husband. She envied her sister
Isis and her happy marriage so much that she attempted
to look just like her. One night Nephthys sat weeping
outside the home of Osiris and Isis. Osiris came upon
her and mistook her for his wife, Isis. Anubis was born
as a result. Some people argue this point, stating that
Set must be Anubis' father.
