You find yourself on the edge of a vast mountain range. To the east you can

You are going your way up the temple stairs sweating and panting. Breathing
deeply you stop and lean against a statue besides the stairs. Examining the
statue more closely, you figure out that the statue is actually a big head of
a snake decorated with stony feathers. The snake has an evil grin on his face
and you are glad it is not alive. The stairs lead upwards to the top of the
temple and down back to the clearing.

Quetzalcoatl's Temple^
Looking back down where you came from makes you feel dizzy so you decide
to pay more attention to a huge monolith laying before you. The monolith
is four feet high and twelve feet wide. Its' face is smooth, but covered
with dark red and brown spots all over it. This is probably a place where
the priests of this ancient city used to worship their god of Earth and the
Universe later known as Quetzalcoatl by the Aztecs. The sight could easily
turn a flesh-eating beast to a true vegetarian.

You have arrived at a wide stone bridge. The bridge consists of four huge
monoliths placed side by side over the river and pavement made of smaller
flagstones quite like the others in the town. The San Juan river flows
gently under the bridge to the east. You are considering a little refreshing
dive into the river, but as you see all the alligators you think it might
be better to take a boat.

Your small boat floats slowly along the river. You notice a slight increase

place to get ashore. The shore, however, is crowded by alligators and you
find it quite forbidding. You have to choose whether to keep going further
east or back west to the bridge.

The river flows quite fast and you have to make a decision quickly
between the river and the alligators. You are breathing heavily as you
try to keep your boat steady. The river continues east and west. To the
northern shore you see some sort of building. Unfortunately you have to
pass by some hungry alligators before you can step ashore. You desperately

You decided to choose the alligators. Quicky you clamber to the jetty and
prepare yourself for the battle. The alligators, however, start preparing
themselves for dinner. They obviously liked your decision which makes you
think that maybe it would have been a better idea to go further east along
the river despite the rapid. To the north you see a little sanctuary.

The Sanctuary of Tlaloc^
Your heart beats fast and you stop for a while to breath deep and recover
from the battle with the alligators. You have an odd feeling that Mr Dundee
didn't have so much trouble with the gators. You wipe the sweat from your
forehead and look around. You find yourself in a small room sanctified to
some god of these unknown people. On the north wall there stands a small
bronze statue decorated with colorful stones. The statue stands firmly on
the floor and it's almost impossible to move. The stone decorations,
however, seem to be quite loose on the statue. Maybe you still can bring
something home to your sweetheart from your adventures - if you survive,
that is.

You are walking along a narrow stony path which leads westwards to vast

this place. The path leads west and back to the east.

Well well... Now you know what it is when you go further to the west.
A number of magnum size mosquitos attack you buzzing madly of thirst for
your blood. You feel, however, strong devotion to your liquid of life and
decide not to give up without a fight. As you prepare yourself for the
battle you quickly look around and notice two escape ways - one back east
where the less enormous mosquitos were and one south to the river bank.

River Bank^
You stand on a slippery river bank watching carefully where to step to
avoid slipping down to the river. The water is calm and quite warm, but a
strange feeling inside makes you decide not to take a bath. There are paths
leading north and west from here.

You stand beneath a huge cross wondering the reason of its' presence. It
looks like it has been here more than thousand years - long before anyone
knew anything of the Christian faith. From some strange markings on its' base
you draw the conclusion that there might be one more cross like this
somewhere in the town (what a detective!).

The street continues further north where the shape of the huge moon
pyramid breaks the horizon. To the east you see a massive building made
of clay and stones rising up to the skies before you. At this very moment
the greatness of this ancient culture fills your mind and you can't help
looking at this breathtaking view while holding your breath. You shake your
head and draw your mind back to reality. To the west you notice a small house.

purpose of its' being. You see piles of used bandages in the corner and a
couple of big pots made of clay placed near the northern wall. There's a
stone platform in the middle of the room. This might have been some kind

This small round shaped building has several little windows in all

you in ignorance of the higher sciences of the people who used to reign
this ancient city. You understand, though, that this building has been
used for observing the planets and stars. The planet Venus, seems to have

Before you, the moon shines brightly, appearing to be a gigantic wheel of

halls of ancient kings and holy men. You wonder where these mighty halls
might be located, and you think that the cross has something to do with it.

A big stone block separates the ceiling from the floor looking anything

vaults even though they had the skill to build these great monuments.
This wide, but rather low room has obviously served as some kind of a storage
room since there are several clay pots near the back wall.
