Without warning, Tiffany, after hearing Shaun and Jeffrey's exclamation, stood up and, this time, it was her turn to shout. "Father!" Tiffany exclaimed in the Ancient Egyptian language, in fact, the memories from her past life has all flown back towards her.
"Can someone please tell me what is going on here?" bewildered, Claire and Eliza, who were unable to perceive the spirit of Priest Imammon, looked on at Tiffany shouting at the wall. "Either they've all gone nuts, or we've gone mad." Eliza concluded.
"Tiffernini, you have to let father back into your body," said Priest Imammon to his daughter, "I have to find the reincarnated Pharaoh Amenkhamen and kill him for daring to break his promise to me. I have already located him, the reincarnated Amenkhamen is now in this strange land of the British Empire. I have waited for this glorious moment for more than 4000 years whilst being squashed in that tiny jar. I cannot wait any longer, my daughter. I have to kill him now!"
"Just as I thought," mumbled Shaun under his breath.
"Nay, father, you have quite mistaken," cried Tiffernini, "The Pharaoh Amenkhamen did not break his promise in the end!"
"My daughter, what are you talking about?" queried Priest Imammon.
"It was all very dramatic, but it happened the morning when Prince Tephoim and Princess Aarika were supposed to have their wedding," elucidated Tiffernini.
"Supposed to?" demanded Priest Imammon, "Do you mean that it didn't happen in the end?"
"Nay, father," answered Tiffernini. "That very morning, news began spreading in the streets that Pharaoh Amenkhamen had suddenly died from an unknown death. When his servants didn't see the Pharaoh in the morning, they went to search for him all over the palace. However, he was nowhere to be found. Eventually, one of his servants found him in his throne room, seated on his throne. At first glance, his servant thought the Pharaoh was just sitting there, looking into space. But when he came forward, the Pharaoh just sat there, motionlessly. Only then, did he discover that the Pharaoh was dead."
"But, what's so strange about his death was that he didn't seem to have suffered from any pain," continued Tiffernini, ignoring her father's attempt to interrupt. "The queer thing to note is that he appeared to be have perceived something scary, as he displayed an extremely frightened expression on his face. No one could guess what could have frightened him so much. Indeed, some say that he was punished by Goddess Isis for breaking his promise, so the Goddess transformed into the object which he feared the most and scared him to death....."
"Wait, Tiffernini, you said that wedding didn't take place," said Priest Imammon, finally able to interrupt, "Then, did Prince Tephoim marry on that day?"
"Aye, father," replied Tiffernini, "He did, but he didn't marry Princess Aarika."
"Then whom did he marry?" questioned Priest Imammon, confused.
"He married me, father," responded Tiffernini. Both Shaun and Jeffrey gasped in astonishment.
