Gods
The gods are very powerful.
"And the time will come when the gods will hear the cry of their priests."
(the gods do not need books to teach them how to handle magic, for they created them)
The Gods influence battles, fighting the enemy of those who have their favor.
Important: The gods fight a battle and withdraw from the war, until someone conquers their favor again.
To approach a god and fight directly with him and his upgrades (weapon, mount, etc.), you first need to survive your powers.
Note: Gods are immune to many powers, only rare spells created directly against the gods, can reach them
* If two gods meet, the one who is defeated (gods can not die), withdraws from the battle. And the other continues to face the enemies of his favored.

Gods - Egyptian Mythology
Isis (in Ancient Egyptian: Aset; Ancient Greek: Ἶσις) was one of the major deities in the religion of Ancient Egypt whose veneration also spread to the Greco-Roman world. She was first mentioned in the Old Kingdom as one of the main characters of the Osiris myth, in which she resurrects her husband, King Osiris, and produces and protects her heir, Horus. It was believed that Isis helped the dead to enter the afterlife in the same way that she had done with Osiris, also being regarded as the divine mother of Pharaoh, who in turn was connected to Horus.
Story
His maternal aid was invoked in healing spells to benefit the common people. She originally played a limited role in royal rituals and temples, but was more prominent in funeral practices and magical texts. Isis was artistically portrayed as a human woman using a hieroglyph in the form of a throne on her head. She assumed in the New Empire the traces that originally belonged to Hator, the most important goddess during the ancient period, and was thus portrayed using Hator's cap: a solar disc between the horns of a cow.
Osiris and Isis became the most venerated deities of the Egyptian pantheon during the Third Intermediate Period, with it absorbing various characteristics of other goddesses. Rulers from both Egypt and its neighboring Nubia to the south began building temples dedicated mainly to Isis, with its temple in Filas becoming a great religious center for both Egyptians and Nubians. The magical power attributed to her was greater than that of all other gods, and it was said that Isis protected the kingdom of her enemies, ruled the heavens and the natural world, and even had power over her own destiny.
During the Ptolemaic Kingdom, when Egypt was ruled and colonized by Greeks, Isis was venerated by the Egyptians and Greeks along with a new god, Serapis. This worship spread throughout the Mediterranean world. Greek devotees attributed to him characteristics drawn from Greek gods, such as intervention in marriage and the protection of vessels on the seas, also maintaining strong ties with Egypt and other Egyptian deities who were popular in the Hellenistic world, such as Osiris and Harpocrates.
Hellenistic culture was absorbed by Rome in the 1st century BC and the cult of Isis became part of the Roman religion. Its devotees were small in proportion within the population of the Roman Empire, but were found by all their territory. His cult developed distinctive festivals such as the Navidium Isidis, in addition to initiation ceremonies similar to Greco-Roman mystery cults. Some of her followers claimed that she gathered all the divine feminine powers of the world.
The veneration of Isis ended the rise of Christianity in the course of the fourth and fifth centuries. It is possible that her worship influenced some practices and beliefs of Christianity, such as Mary's veneration, but the evidence for it is ambiguous and often controversial . Isis continues to appear in Western culture, particularly in esotericism and neopaganism, often as the embodiment of nature or as the feminine aspect of the divine.
