“Whoa, what is that?”
“A scarab beetle.”
“As big as a tank?”
A monster beetle with shining black carapace
and spiky legs that scraped and clanked metallically stood up on its back legs
and rolled an enormous fiery mass like a planet ablaze ahead of itself, using
its front legs. Its claws struck sparks off the flinty stone of the riverbank.
“The sun boat of Ra has now
transformed into the scarab beetle Khepri, rolling the sun ahead of himself,
just as the scarab beetle rolls a ball of dung along the ground. Khepri is the ancient
Egyptian symbol of rebirth. He’s rolling the sun to the eastern horizon to begin
the new day...”
