Egyptian Queens-Egyptian Dreams. Image Used With Permission. This goddess did not have any specific attributes but was sometimes personified as a symbol of the desert edge, often barren but sometimes fruitful. An interesting thing to note is that Nephthys and Set never had any children of their own. However, Nephthys was able to con her brother into getting her with child after a drop of alcohol. When her husband attacked and killed Osiris, Nephthys went to the side of her sister Isis and helped her take care of her husband. Because of this, she is now associated with Osiris's council of the dead.
