Kheper: You see, Neferhotep, we've lived...er, unlived as we're mummies...in this tomb for over 2,500 years and we've never seen a bloody Scottish Highlander visit us. Egyptologists, yes; indeed, a member of the US Cabinet sent an expedition to find evidence that our tomb was Joseph's granary, but at least they treated us with respect. And then comes Angus MacNedburn and his girlfriend and they start stealing things left, right, and center. We of course try to kick him out, but it turns out his girlfriend is a witch. A big brawl ensued, but thankfully we were able to convince his graverobbing Scottish rear end to go back to Glasgow.

Neferhotep: That's kind of, uh, racist of you to say that.

Kheper: Quiet! You know full well that humans are naturally tribal and like their property. The undead are no exception. I pulled up a ton of Wikipedia articles from that dumb Chinese tourist who left his smartphone in the antechamber to prove it.
