Sutekh, who was also brother to [[Osiris]], ruled [[Phaester Osiris]]. When Sutekh killed Osiris, he projected his mind into a pilot of an Osiran ship, "birthing" a psi-child who (probably) led to Horus. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Sands of Time]]'')
By one vague account, Horus might have been the psi-child produced when Sutekh killed his brother Osiris, he projected his mind into a pilot of an Osiran ship. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Sands of Time (novel)|The Sands of Time]]'') However, by a much more detailed account, Horus was created when [[Anubis]] merged the [[biodata]]s of [[Osiris]] and [[Christine Summerfield|Cousin Eliza]] of [[Faction Paradox]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Words from Nine Divinities (audio story)|Words from Nine Divinities]]'')

After Osiris' death, Sutekh and [[Nephthys]] both escaped to [[Earth]], destroying [[Phaester Osiris]]. The 740 remaining Osirans were led by Horus in battle against Sutekh, finally defeating him in [[Egypt]]. Feeling that they could not stoop to Sutekh's level by killing him, they trapped Sutekh in [[Egypt]], having a [[pyramid]] on [[Mars]] relay a beam to paralyse him, stopping him from moving or projecting his mind. They also set the [[Eye of Horus|methods to free himself]] just out of his reach in order to make the punishment that much more torturous. ([[TV]]: ''[[Pyramids of Mars]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Sands of Time]]'')
