We are introduced to a world where living mummies are explained to undergraduate students and the police deal with them in a matter-of-fact manner. A big-city police inspector, made aware of the mummy's latest rampage, devises a very sensible plan of action against him which probably would have worked. Alas, his scheme is never put to the test, as the night he tries it coincides with the mummy's mission to retrieve the reincarnated Princess Ananka, the one task which takes precedence over the imbibing of tana fluid (although the mummy is visibly distracted by its lure). Upon beholding the girl, the latest high priest of whatever their cult is called succumbs to a sly and literal voice of temptation and attempts to keep her for himself (again), which ticks off poor Kharis, who has had enough of these unfaithful, horny priests. The "hero", a 35-year-old undergraduate student, pursues the captive girl and her shambling suitor, only to witness her being drawn into a swamp as a withered crone. Perhaps a sip of tana fluid would have done the girl some good after all.
