Quote #4
"When Ra… first called Sekhmet to punish humans because they were rebelling against him… she got out of hand." (33.52)
Sekhmet's story makes us wonder: is the price of vengeance worth it? Is death and destruction a good way to punish people and teach them a lesson?
Quote #5
Take him while he's down, Isis urged. Burn him to ashes! (24.71)
Isis comes across as kind of bloodthirsty and vengeful here. We get that she's just looking out for herself and her family, but we also wonder whether she's perhaps a little quick to the kill.
Quote #6
His black eyes fixed on me, and he spoke in a completely different voice—a rasping, dry sound, like a reptile's belly scraping over sand. "This is not over, godling. All this I have wrought with a wisp of my voice, the merest bit of my essence wriggling from my weakened cage. Imagine what I shall do when properly formed." (40.60)
Apophis's words to Sadie are not precisely a direct threat, but it's pretty easy to read between the lines and imagine that Apophis isn't very happy with the godlings right now. Since one of his defining traits is that he hates all of Creation and wants to destroy everything, we can only imagine that he'll want revenge on Sadie and Carter for keeping him from enjoying that sweet, sweet destruction as soon as possible.
