Yet, not everyone is happy with the newly anointed emperor and some of his policies, namely his close contacts in the neighboring Mexica-Aztec Capital. Some nobles even think they would be better-suited to occupy the Texcoco throne.
When mysterious black-clothed killers sneak into the Chief Warlord’s house on the night of the celebrative feast, stealing the carved sword, the most precious weapon in the entire capital, a weapon that is believed to hold magical qualities, the troubles in the capital escalate, taking matters out of the hands of even those who paid for this crime to take place.
With Tlalli, now a noblewoman, a favorite concubine of the powerful Mexica Head Adviser, finding herself embroiled in the troublesome happenings when she succumbs to the urge to explore the beautiful capital unescorted.
