Read my story, for I am the mighty lsis, to lear how I came to have the power of creation and take the mantle of Queen of Magic. I will even teach you how to cary out my spels of ife and the afterlife, as well as tell you about charms of love and seduction, and secret amulets and protection against all evils. Look at the sumptuous illustrations of traditional art and hieroglyphics for further insight.

Such was the jealousy of the great sun-god Ra, my grandfather, that he had my parents forever divided. My mother was cursed by Ra never to bring forth her divine children on any day of the year. Then, as if in reaction to his senseless anger, Thoth, the god of magic and writing, protector of scribes and physicians, and possibly the inventor of hierogyphics, came up with a solution to the problem. Find out how a game of dice that Thoth played with Khonsu, the moon, forever cast my future, And thus you will know the beginning of my tale, as it was recounted to me by Thoth himself. There is so much more that followed, but you must open the pages of my book to learn it. Very Good / Very Good.
