"You're right, we can not be sure of anything. We can not even be sure if this mummy has some evil spirit within that makes it rise as the one before, and hacking or burning it just because it might would probably be a violation of holy precepts... which I'm not too keen about."
Kherim shrugs. But he still maintains his original idea "However, the other mummy was not affected by fire and indeed we had to fight it while alit and that was more a problem to us than to it. This is my whole rationale."
Then he shifts attitude and addresses all others "However, are we done here? Have you noticed that the Evil One seems to think our only interest here is stealing his treasures? That may be an advantage for us. All Aldinach cared about was to destroy those coffers where apparently there were gold and gems. And that, he thought, was what we came for. The point is, have we found everything we cared for in this room? Is our only doubt now what to do about this mummy?"
