The weighing of the heart is one of the most powerful concepts in Egyptian mythology — and Long Night in Egypt delivers it in full. In the Hall of Two Truths, Anubis places the heart of the dead on a scale against the feather of Ma'at, the feather of truth. A heart burdened by sin is heavier than the feather. It is devoured by Ammit, the hippo goddess, and the soul ceases to exist. A pure heart passes into eternity. Kayla, Mo, and Samira are brought before Anubis and Pharaoh Unas to be judged. Jordan is already there — dead, his fate sealed. Kayla's heart is weighed. She passes. Samira's is weighed. The hippo goddess devours it. Mo watches his cousin die, and then it is his turn.
