In his fury, he exiled Khatep from Khemri and forbade him to set foot within any of the great cities until such a time as he could fulfill the Mortuary Cult's ancient promise and reinstate the golden age of Nehekhara. Settra was angry foremost with the Mortuary Cult, believing they had whispered lies about the extent of their powers.

Before long all bowed their heads to Settra, and though he sat once more upon the throne of Khemri, his wrath was great.

At the end of the mighty incantation Settra arose and smote any who opposed him. He broke the magical seals of the Great Pyramid of Khemri and awoke the greatest of the Tomb Kings - Settra. Khatep therefore took it upon himself to restore order. įollowing the casting of Nagash's Great Ritual, civil war threatened to destroy Nehekhara.
