I mentioned the beast in other works, but not by name ;)

In the Ancient Egyptian mythologies, there is also the "god" Thoth. Thoth is the scribe of the "gods" who wrote down all the judgments of our balance, alignment, harmony, integrity and congruence with Moral Truth/Law, with Maat. If we failed to measure up to Moral Truth/Law, the beast would eat our heart and we wouldn't reach the "afterlife", "eternal life", "immortality" or "paradise" in the Field of Reeds in the East, where the Sun (higher consciousness) was reborn/resurrected. In the Bible narratives this is "Heaven". For the Greeks it was "Elysium".
Thoth I know too.
Thanks to a certain MOBA he should have experience a sudden surge in popularity.
Almost every religion or mythology has some version of the afterlife going for it.
