Experiencing Interruptions?

Qatisa


Qetesh, the holy Egyptian goddess of love and pure ecstasy has awakened from her forced slumber. After years of searching this new world she finally finds a woman to possess. The woman fights Qetesh, as it is a huge shame and morally sinister for her sexuality to govern her character. This becomes a painfully struggling process for the woman and surprisingly for Qetesh.

Qetesh uses all her power to strengthen the unity of the body and the spirit to take on a new form Qatisa.
