Mut
Mut is invariably linked to Sekhmet, as his daughter, as well as to Nit (Neith):
(...) "Eye of Re which protects him" (...),
whoes aggression is against the rebels,
her blood-thirst against the desert-dwellers,
her fire against the members of the evil-doers,
against the enemies of the Lord of All."(...)
"Come and let us perform for her the ritual of Sleeping in the Field,
let us make it wet for her with the moist of heaven."(...)
"Oh Mistress, let us be spared for thy arrows",(...)
"Oh Lady of Imau" (...) "Mut, daughter of Re, Neith-Sakhmet"1
This particular rite links Mut to Sekhmet, not only as the Eye of Re (his daughter),
but also in her protective aspect in the Destruction of Mankind Story
and her destructive aspect (in reference to Mut's arrows.
