  2. A Magical Encounter

    • Picture this: You are standing by the Nile River, and suddenly, a tall figure appears before you—a man with the head of a falcon! It's Horus, the god of the sky! What questions would you ask him? Would you want to know about his adventures or how he watches over Egypt?
