Cher wrote a game that contained an Aztec myth. Teia turned the tables and educated Cher about not only Aztecs, but additionally about Incas too, rubbing salt in the wound. Jokes aside, enjoy our first bonus content episode, taken from Episode 1, 'The beginning of an era'.

Sources for this bonus episode:

The Florentine Codex, Book 12, Chapter 1: https://enl.wired-humanities.org/fcbk12ch01

Compiled by Bernardino de Sahagun and many indigenous Nahua scribes in the mid 16th century in the Colegio de Santa Cruz.

Translated by A. J. O. Anderson and C. E. Dibble. This website has the other chapters in Book 12 which cover the conquest of the Mexica by the Spaniards, and is one of our only sources written in the indigenous Nahuatl as well as in Spanish.
