| At the porch of the temple's garden|

The family was at the porch sitting on a big sofa,With Isis crossing her arms, nepthys petting on Anubis's head as he was sleeping on Seth's lap,

As Seth was seemingly proud explaining how he executed his tactics and strategy to his family, Isis had a bitter face, and Seth noticed it and had to address this.

"Isis, I see you're not pleased with me since I have arrived.. why is that?"

Seth tilted his head as he began to have watery eyes as he puts up his puppy act to get Isis to talk to him

Isis clenching her clothes as Seth puts up this crying puppy act and couldn't hold it in no longer, she shouted as he stood up from her seat on Osiris' lap

"You never really listened to a thing I have said during our discussion about your tactics and strategy!"

The three of them surprised at her loud outburst, while Seth was also shocked, his hands were busy aggressively petting Anubis's head to prevent him from suddenly waking up from Isis' shouts

"B-but I did ya know! I ambushed them like you said! A-and I even used decoys like we discussed! What part of it that I didn't follow according to our plans??"

Seth was confused but that made Isis more angry, but this time she said in a low tone, she also didn't want Anubis to wake up from his sleep

"Well! The fact that I told you to attack  during the night to avoid unnecessary bloodshed that they will cause! Before you have fought them in the open desert, some of their men had actually razed a nearby village to the ground! Everyone died there you moron!"

Isis clenched her teeth as she sat back down, with a huge sigh and with her arms crossed

Seth looked hurt and understood Isis' frustration,just from imagining the amount of people who died in that nearby village alone made him sick,

"No wonder my khopesh felt heavier that usual during the time of the battle.."

Seth mumbled under his breath as he looked at his sword, his thumb caressing the edges of the sword , as his hurt and sad eyes turned to anger and vengeful-

"I'll pray for their peaceful trip to duat ..."

Seth said before being interrupted by Isis once again

"And what the heck is up with that ugly ass headdress of yours Seth?!"

Isis exclaimed out loud, which made Seth's cheeks red in embarrassment, he opened his mouth to say something but remembered the promise he made to nepthys back when he first arrived

Seth glanced at nepthys before he could say anything and there he was nepthys looking very attentive at every move Seth made, when Seth turned to her in terms of the mask, nepthys just smiled at him.

Seth's cheeks got flustered on the situation as he cleared his throat and crossed his arms

"I just thought my red hair is a bit too eye catching, and plus! I didn't like the veil that only covered half of my face!.."

Both Osiris and Isis were at a loss for words and Nepthys can be heard trying to hold in her giggle

"That wasn't really a problem and you didn't mind it up until now didn't you?"

Osiris tilted his head as he chuckled, but Isis on the other hand wasn't laughing at all, she was a loss of words to describe how it wasn't Seth's style at all!

"What happened to that veil that was blessed by Hathor herself?"

Osiris added

"Or those golden adornments we made Hathor fix them in for you?"
