The Arrival of the Foreign Warriors

The White Barbarians are a hardhearted people. They set fire to the forests, and when they burn, one can
see the animals trapped by the fire who run trying to escape the flames but who burn nevertheless. The
same thing happens to us. Since the White Barbarians have come to our country, there has been
continuous war. But the Ugha Mongulala were never the first to point the arrow. The White Barbarians
sent out the first warrior, and the second, and the third. Only then did we send out the runner with the
Golden Arrow. But our sacrifices were in vain. The White Barbarians advanced ever further,

tribes overran the frontier fortresses in Mato Grosso and in Bolivia. In Akakor tension between the high
council and the priests increased. False faith and idolatry threatened the bequest of the Former Masters.
Only the triple division of power introduced by Lhasa prevented the collapse of the empire. The people
of the Ugha Mongulala benefited from his order and his laws, but even they could not prevent a slow
disintegration of the empire, which was further accelerated by the events on the western frontier.
There the Incas were engaged in mighty battles and subjugated many tribes. They conquered the roads
