Talk:Mummy (The Rings of Akhaten)

Alarm Clock

The page says Akhaten was the "alarm clock" for the Mummy, but I thought that it was the Mummy who was the "alarm clock" for Akhaten. The way I saw it in the episode: When it became time for the Queen of Years to be sacrificed (a unique and unexpected situation breaking the pattern of singing the song to keep the Mummy, thought to be the "Old God" at least by the Doctor, asleep), the Mummy would awaken and snatch her, with the help of the Vigil if needed. When that didn't work, the Mummy awoke Akhaten, revealing who the "real" Old God was. Through the Mummy, Akhaten had and would absorb the memories of objects, letting him gain power and stay asleep, but the Mummy would wake him up if, at the appointed time, the Queen of Years couldn't be sacrificed, letting Akhaten use his backup plan of going after the Universe on his own. At least that's what I thought happened. —BioniclesaurKing4t2 - "Hello, I'm the Doctor. Basically, . . . run." 17:50, April 17, 2013 (UTC)
