The animal-headed demigod cascaded into a fleeing goat in a series of fluttering images...

(Ancient action - excerpt from DYNASTY ZERO on Amazon Kindle)

I turned to stone in the alley, along with the small girl beside me.

The khepesh-wielding demigod, with the body of old Pewero at his feet, fixed his eyes on me, at first human eyes like coals, then changing to the slivered pupils of a ram’s eyes in an animal’s head.

He was a broad-shouldered man with a ram’s head and spiral horns, yet the head of the ram kept burning and twisting into the visage of a man with a stubby beard.

Forever in a state of flux, the demon demigods were Lords of Manifestation, half-man and half-god. Born out of the licentiousness of the Neteru and the gods’ attraction to the beauty of the daughters of humankind, the Divine Misbegotten were a distortion of everything that was god and man. Because they were man and neter in equal measures, a civil war raged in their blood and their beings were locked and twisted in a perpetual struggle.

He raised his sickle-sword to strike at us.

This jolted me into action and I put an arrow to the bow. I saw fear invade the ram’s eyes as I bent the bow, drew the fletching to the anchor point of my chin and took aim.

A black, fleeing goat came bolting helter-skelter between the houses, its hooves flying. I glimpsed its darting shape from the corner of my eye and he saw it too. And then, before the command to release the arrow raced to my fingers on the bowstring, I saw the demigod shift. He cascaded from his human form towards the form of the running goat. This shift was said to be an action so fast that it was invisible to men, yet I saw it happen in a series of fluttering images.

I swung the bow and released the arrow, not at the demigod, but ahead of the fluttering images, leading my target. My arrow struck the goat high in the chest. Its forelegs crumpled without the creature giving a bleat, but now I saw the goat quiver and the demigod shifted again, this time departing the fallen goat and fluttering back towards his body. A cascade of images returned to the wall to manifest in a startled soldier who fell with a cry. My arrow pierced his body just above his armour padding.

The little girl at my side shrank against me.

A group of three attackers came upon us...

Or among the stars...

Heka, or ancient Egyptian magical curses... mysterious happenings to be considered as seriously as Jesus' cursing of the barren fig tree?

Curses have an esoteric and Christian history. Jesus cursed the barren fig tree (after which the disciples reported its withering the very next day). So what about the curses or execration texts of the ancient Egyptians and hidden dangers from the ancient past?

Atomic power of the ancients?

I investigate ancient Egyptian magic in my fiction - curses, execration texts and the like. (See 'The Smiting Texts')

My renegade archaeologist hero Anson Hunter, despite being a man who wrestles with a personal faith, addresses this mystery in reply to a question...

“So you believe heka has power to influence the real world?” she said.

“Can a certain sequence of words and actions, such as imitation, the replication of a name, image or mythical event produce an event in the real world? I believe there is an unseen connectedness between things and by tuning in to this network of likenesses you can attract like outcomes. The trick is to find that invisible skein and draw on it, hence the Egyptians’ use of puns, analogy, mimesis, acrostics, dualities and the like. These links are things beyond logic, like the dream realm where parallel sounds, symbols and stories, while seeming bizarre, hold an inner, often unseen connection with our lives.”

(See The Ibis Apocalypse - Amazon Kindle and paperback.)

Perhaps the only quasi-scientific acknowledgement of this hidden force today is the concept of synchronicity developed by Carl Jung.

Was heka the atomic power of the ancients?

It was certainly a state instrument of power and foreign policy used against enemy nations to destroy them in the form of ritualised execration texts or smiting spells. (See The Smiting Texts - Amazon Kindle and paperback).
