In this, Book III of the Teoxi, Mayan Prince trilogy, Teoxi returns to his village after the death of Montezuma I and many of that Aztecan emperor' most powerful priests. As in Book II, Teoxi remains a wise and determined commander committed to restoring the dying Mayan Empire, preventing the spread of the blood-thirsty Aztecan Empire and challenging a prophecy that predicts the soon coming-end of the world he knows
Teoxi fights a continuous battle against ignorance and superstition, walks with assurance into battle after battle against the Aztec and their minions, initiates overtures to the mountain-dwelling Incas as a bulwark against the Aztec. He returns always victorious from battles and skirmishes that span the former empire from sea to sea, and learns much from his terrifying brush with the invisible tribe of Chocoes--wielder of the tiny arrows that deliver silent death to all who venture blindly into their dark and mysterious forest. His quest continues without pause even after one of his finest--the silent and discreet female warrior named Night Orchid--offers to provide any support that a busy commander needs.
The family bears the burden of continuous challenges facing Teoxi as he continues the fight to save himself and his village from a death sentence issued by an enemy desperate to kill him. Teoxi will win, but, the price paid by the Mayan Nation will be huge. Teoxi sees tomorrow, when the prophesied hordes armed with fire and thunder reach his shores, and--as his body bears the weight of a people and land that created a history the world will forever respect--he knows that wisdom, not power, will enable the spirit of his people to continue forever. That night, there was a party at the stronghold. We talked and laughed about the events of the day
