Thoth, the goddess of knowledge, magic, and scribing, recorded all history since the beginning of Urzyma, when the Architect Ptah first Thought it into existence. Her followers number fewer than the other gods, but they are as dedicated and loyal to her as the ceaseless pursuit of knowledge. Though Thoth wielded incredible magic and was possessed of a neutral, analytical disposition, it was nevertheless with trepidation that she watched the mortal known as the God-King harness the powers of that forbidden scroll to carve his own mark upon the land. His capital, which the gods agreed must remain nameless forevermore, was so beset with blasphemy that the Architect abandoned Urzyma in disgust. This sorrowful turn of events did not escape her reed pen, even though this detail was lost in the midst of the chaos the God-King brought to the pantheon. Following the demise of Osiris, Lord of Life, his nether realm of Duat fell into ruin, and even death itself was destroyed in the wake of the God-King's bloody hunt for immortality. The orders of her brethren were persecuted for what the God-King called the "false faiths", and neither were Thoth's followers spared. A few, however, were so lured by dark promises that they threw themselves before his feet and renounced their faith; these were the ones Thoth watched in secret, if only to better understand their archenemy. Thoth never wavered from her divine duty since time immemorial—to uphold Truth through the Word. The God-King's death at the hands of a brave priestess had set the wheels of fate in motion once more, and the goddess could feel it in her very soul—it was time at last to etch the new annals of history.
