A/N: A treat for [personal profile] bonibaru for Fall Equinox 2017. This vid was originally going to focus on Anubis & Thoth, but it quickly grew as I realized I wanted to tell more of the old gods' stories along with this beautiful song. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed making it.

I'm not sure how much sense this will make if you're not familiar with the canon (book or show). Here is a quick, spoilery guide if you'd like one.

Thanks: to [personal profile] revolutionaryjo for beta, [personal profile] bessyboo for putting us in touch, and [personal profile] cinco for giving this a look despite not having seen the show.
