Infuriated, N'Kantu rushed to his people's rescue, but he eventually fell before the greater numbers of the Egyptians, and he was captured as well. (Supernatural Thrillers v1 #14) N'Kantu and the Swarili were taken to Egypt, where they were put to work, building monuments to Pharaoh Aram-Set. (Supernatural Thrillers v1 #5) The Swarili eventually lost touch with their own gods, such as the Great Lion, and came to worship the gods worshipped by the Egyptians. (Legion of Monsters: Satana v1 #1) As the strongest, and most dangerous, N'Kantu was worked the hardest, though they never broke his spirit. At night he and his people plotted rebellion, but eventually Aram-Set and his priest, Nephrus, learned of this development.
