Kapitel 467: ON FLIGHT VI

Emma shrugged. "That's understandable. Practically everything in the rain forest is out for your blood. I've heard the rumors, of course, and Annabel told me that it wasn't the Incas who destroyed the Cloud People, or the Spanish. The locals and descendents whisper of a great evil who murdered in the night, sucking the life from them and turning families against one another. The Cloud People were fierce in battle and gentle in their home life, but they supposedly succumbed one by one or fled the village to the Incas. When the Incas came to conquer the forest people, apparently most of the warriors were already dead. It's rumored that the Incas living here suffered the same fate as the ones killed by the marauding evil. Their bravest warriors died first."

"That's not in the history books," Ben said.
