“James strongarm, wake up!” A cute young woman stood over the sleeping boy. Saliva driped onto the paper beneath his head. He hummed in tired relief as his eyes slowly curled open. James looked roundround at his classmates that sat there bored and working as his teacher invaded his perimeter.

“As James was awake and obviously listening he can answer the questions posed earlier!” She announced to the class prompting him to stand. “What is embalming?” James fidgeted and squirmed on the spot as eyes stared at him watching waiting for him to fuck up. “E…Embalming is or was a method of treating the dead body during the ancient Egyptian time period. Usually its called mummification. Using special processes, the Egyptians removed all moisture from the body, leaving only a dried form that would not easily decay.” Jame stood there and scratched his head further messing his hair. She stood there silent for just a few moments then began to speak “good answer but…” she was interrupted by him as he continued. “To dry out the body they used salts and removed most organs through keyhole surgery, this gave them an extensive knowledge of the human anatomy. But they did leav the heat behind as they believed that this organ was the most important and you would need it when going to the after life as it was the ticket that got you in or eaten by the devowerer.” She looked at him and opened her mouth to speak just as the bell rang.
