"Legion Commander! The esteemed Divine King has decreed, and I have brought the reply!..."
"What did His Majesty the Divine King say?..."
"The Divine King said that we can hold a funeral for the Zapotecs! To reduce some future resistance for the southward conquest of the Alliance's grand army... But it absolutely, must, and definitely protect His Highness Xiulote's safety! Oh, and there's a team of twenty Shadow Guards who have come along..."
"Good! I've already contacted the Zapotecs on this side... Then report to His Highness the Prophet. Three days later, in front of the Zapotec encampment at the mouth of the valley, a sacred funeral shall be held!..."
The sun rose three times, and the sacrificial Divine Platform was erected once more. Two thousand Alliance Warriors clad in armor and holding spears guarded the high Divine Platform, watching the East vigilantly.
