How did bastet kill apep?

In ancient Egyptian mythology, Bastet, the goddess of home, fertility, and protection, was often depicted as a lioness or a woman with a lioness head. She played a crucial role in the cosmic battle against Apep (or Apophis), the serpent deity representing chaos and destruction. Bastet, alongside other deities, would confront Apep to protect the sun god Ra during his nightly journey through the underworld, using her fierce nature and strength to vanquish him and restore order. This eternal struggle symbolized the triumph of light over darkness and order over chaos.
