The somewhat curious Chichimecas of the great s.h.i.+ps they observed on the horizon came up to them without much concern because they had confidence in the Anahuac priest because the Tonantzin mother had accepted them and treated them like their children.
The boats were a novelty for the Chichimecas when they boarded they did not hesitate to travel all the s.p.a.ces of the s.h.i.+p while they sailed towards Origin Civitatem.
Meanwhile Flavio his family spent a beautiful moment on the beaches of the Caribbean enjoying all the benefits of the sea until he arrived Amancio his a.s.sistant and tribune of legion who informed him that a tribe of more than 5000 members go to the capital in s.h.i.+ps, it seems being that they have news from the north not very hopeful.
When h.e.l.lena heard this, she could only frown "Just what was missing, don"t tell me it"s a b.l.o.o.d.y forest in the north"
Amancio shook his head "No Empress, seems to be a weather phenomenon, the little information that was obtained was that they received orders from the mother Tonantzin to emigrate to the south"
Flavio placed his hand on his chin "Problems of the north do not think it is something like the d.a.m.n jungle, nor can they be aggressive tribes like the Mongols or Huns because the horses do not exist, therefore that leaves the option of the Yellowstone supervolcano or the northern cold.
Either one has its disadvantages but if it is the Yellowstone volcano, this is simply over because it will end life on the planet while if it is cold the panorama is not so apocalyptic but it forecasts bad news because the cold causes migration to the south looking for warmer climates. "
Flavio knew that one of the reasons why the Roman Empire died was for a large number of people who emigrated to warmer areas fleeing from the northern cold and the threat of the Huns, Vandals, and Visigoths are the clearest examples.
This is good and bad news because if migrants from the north begin to arrive they can be absorbed peacefully or aggressively as slaves to increase the population that the empire needs so much.
Although the food is monotonous because the fields produce limited food, the sea can feed the population and with trawls there is nothing to worry about, because the situation is temporary since the elves have taken care of it along with the Nahuales of the management and care of the environment, so that resources are not overexploited and can be used in the future.
This means that peasants who want to destroy the forest are checked to start building farm fields or animal husbandry fields, if you are not careful with deforestation it can be harmful because although the continent is its great Most of them are virgin, in just a few years or maybe centuries, forests and jungles can be converted into desert areas that cause environmental damage such as aquifer droughts and without water there is no life.
Therefore Flavio gives high priority to the care of the environment and is not convinced by the short-term benefits because it is useless that in the present the empire is well if in the future they will have to leave their lands to seek a better life.
One of the reasons why the Maya and the Teotihuacan"s left their big cities was because the famine began and people died of starvation, this caused conflicts like civil wars and soon after the cities were abandoned, leaving only a sample of what That once were great civilizations.
When Flavio and his family returned to Origin Civitatem they met the tanned-skinned Chichimecas, Flavio called the peoples of northern Mexico Chichimecas because unlike the Indian tribes like the Apaches, they are believers of the Tonantzin mother.
Flavio appeared before the leader of the tribe and the shaman "Na ni tlatoque Roman, Nehuatl noyollo nauhatlachtolli
(I am the Roman Emperor, I love the Nahuatl language)
Tlazohcamati miac Tonatzin.
(Thank you very much Tonatzin)
Pampa tehuan Roman mexicas
(Because we are Mexican Romans) "
The leader of the Chichimecas responded to the greeting in the same way as Flavio, after this, they were taken to the imperial palace, where they would talk about the warnings that Mother Tonantzin made of something that is happening in the north.
While they spoke the Chichimecas traveled the city with great curiosity because everything was too long for them, from the clothes to the large number of things they could see as the buildings, what they liked most was that from time to time they could see small chapels Mother Tonantzin, who always had fresh flowers.
Another thing that surprised them was the mega set of temples that surrounded the pyramid of the sale, they did not hesitate to enter some of the temples where some curious people heard the ma.s.ses that the priestesses and priests gave, these ma.s.ses were given in Latin, Nahuatl, and Maya so that no one will remain without understanding what the priests said.
The Chichimecas heard that in some parts of the Ma.s.s some people used their voices to sing and others used strange tools that produce pleasant sounds, but among all the songs they could hear, the one at the end was the one that surprised them the most.
The choir always repeated the word Ameno accompanied by the sound of a sharp instrument they used on the shoulder, one of the curious could not contain himself and ask for the name of that tool that produced an extremely beautiful sound.
The answer given by the person he asked was that it is called violin and is a tool created by the emperor and the song they were listening to was called Ameno also composed by the emperor so that the paris.h.i.+oners who attend the ma.s.ses can hear the word of the G.o.ds accompanied by a piece of magical music
The Chichimecas entered other ma.s.ses within different temples dedicated to different deities, discovered that the sacred text did not change but depending on the deity of the temple the priest or priestess used verses dedicated to the G.o.d of the temple...
