This myth concludes with the creation of man and all of the other creatures of earth. Ra was finally satisfied with the world he and the other gods had created, and now he roamed the world in his boat, Mesektet, guarding it from the darkness. Order, or as much as could be achieved, had been brought to the world and I continued to enforce truth and justice among man kind and the gods. Many versions of this myth also claim that Ra made himself the first ruler of man. He ruled for many years in a land of peace a prosperity before retiring to his duties in the heavens above and the underworld bellow. The gods and goddesses took up their roles in the running of the universe, and for many years, we have basked in the worship of mankind, providing them with a way of life, protection and sustenance in return.
Thus, the end of this first chapter of the world is simply the beginning to a much greater saga; a prequel to the many myths that have formed over the years.
