Nephythys was an Intermediate Power of the Pharaonic pantheon, the child of Geb and Nut and a member of Ra's Ennead family.[1] She was Set's former wife, but left him after he murdered his brother and rival Osiris. He never stopped sending proxies to her realm with gifts, but she seemed uninterested, turning the proxies away except for one called Bentresh who she persuaded to serve her rather than her former husband.[2] The goddess was withdrawn to the point of unfriendliness, and didn't receive visitors even from elsewhere in Arborea.[3]

Nephythys ruled the realm of Amun-thys on Pelion, little more than a series of scattered tombs in the layer's massive desert. She and her petitioners guarded their treasure jealously, not out of greed, but just so they didn't get robbed.[4]
