Video game text
Rette Barbara! Wir haben den Befehl, den Friedhof nur zu bewachen und dürfen sonst nichts unternehmen! Aber Barbara, die Tochter des Totenpriesters, muss noch irgendwo auf dem Friedhof sein. Wir dürfen ihr nicht helfen, du schon!
This is the text for a fantasy video game. The character Barbara is trapped in the cemetery, surrounded by hungry zombies. I can't find a good translation of this any where. Any ideas?

high priest of the dead
http://www.gizapyramids.org/pdf library/junker_kaninisut.pdf
The scene below this shows five servants walking toward the
deceased. They are priests of the dead, that is persons who had
engaged themselves to do the service in the tomb and who received
a certain income in return, which was paid in natural produce or
in the profits of a piece of land. The first is “the priest of the
dead Penw” (= mouse), who carries a water basin and can. The
second, Wah-ib, is carrying a vase filled with grains, the third,
Itef, a crane, the fourth, Chufu-seneb (= Cheops is in good health)
and Itij, a goose each.

I am walking back toward my chambers when I see Imhotep down the hall, my father�s chief advisor, and Priest of the Dead. I have known him since I was a little girl, and he always had some treat for me, a candy or sweet.
