Have I ever told y'all the story of the inevitability of Chaos?

Yes?

Well, I'll tell it again.

The ancient Egyptians believed that Ra, the sun god descended into the abyss every night to battle Apophis (the personification of chaos). https://twitter.com/TheIfedolapo/status/1250557073865220096
It was believed that if Ra didn't, Apophis would swallow all of creation.

So Ra battled him again and again.

Why didn't Ra win and kill Apophis once and for all?

Or why didn't Ra just give up, knowing that in the end, Chaos would win?
Everything in this life succumbs to Chaos eventually.

But every time order is applied, Chaos is held at bay.

Everytime Chaos is held at bay, we win a Victory.

When Victory is impossible, we can only redefine it realistically, and that's what battling Chaos means.
