[Atem shuts his eyes, nuzzles the side of Ryou's neck. If all 7 Millennium Items are collected, and the Eye of Wadjet judges him worthy in the ceremonial battle...it's possible to reach the afterlife, even without the proper rites done to his body and a tomb to sustain his spirit. He can get there...and, he believes, Ryou will, too.]
Even we doubted sometimes whether we were right about the afterlife. We built tombs and maintained offerings for decades, and we recited the dead's names dutifully...but sometimes we wondered if we had it right, since no one ever came back to tell us.
But there is an afterlife. I was sent to it, and I came back. I might not remember, but...that's the proof we were always looking for. So, you'll definitely see your family again!
