After preparations are approved by the university mortician, each Priest will then be given part of the burial ritual. Each priest must perform the entire ritual in the correct order at the specified altar to prepare the spirit for the afterlife. Finally the deceased is laid to rest in a sanctified Ka Tomb. Complete 7 rituals to advance.

Principles

Physically and spiritually prepare the recently deceased for the afterlife.

• Create some Embalming Fluid
• Weave a bandage on a loom
• Perform one full ritual (does not require a Ka Tomb which has passed the test)

Test Details

(Note, this is being assembled from memory, by a player who last participated in the test about 6 months ago. Please edit for accuracy, thank you! Peacefulness)

Part One: Preparing the Cadaver for Burial

• All participants must have started the Test of Ritual Mummification at a University of Worship.
• Priest 1 starts a group. Priests 2-4 click on Priest 1 to join. The order in which they are accepted determines which priest they are.
• Priest 1 requests a cadaver at the University of Worship. At this time, they will receive a pop-up with the details of the four steps that need to be completed to prepare the cadaver for burial. This is a good time to evaluate whether the specific materials are available, before they return to camp with the cadaver. Through their test menu, Priest 1 treats the cadaver with up to 100 db of salt and passes it to Priest 2.
• Priest 2 embalms the cadaver through their test menu. The embalming fluid is made from three specific ingredients, at a Kitchen, under its Recipes menu. It takes 10 minutes to cook. After embalming the cadaver they hand it to Priest 3.
• Priest 3 scents the cadaver with one db of Simple Perfume. It is made from a specific citrus, at a Kitchen, through its Recipes menu and takes 10 minutes to cook. Once the cadaver is perfumed, they pass it to Priest 4.
• Priest 4 wraps the cadaver, through their test menu, using up to 20 Bandages. Each bandage is made from 5,000 thread at a loom. Then Priest 4 passes it back to Priest 1.
• Priest 1 returns to the University of Worship with the mummified cadaver and presents it to the Scientists for approval. If all steps have been done exactly as prescribed, the group will be given the details of the ritual to be completed for part two of the test.

Part Two: The Ritual

In their test menu, each priest in the group will receive one part of a four-part ritual.
