Grand Inquisitor SilecioOur bodies are prisons for our souls. Our skin and blood, the iron bars of confinement. But fear not. All flesh decays. Death turns all to ash. And thus, death frees every soul. You, the condemned, you have confessed. You admit to protecting a queen who twists the word of God and drowns all Spain in sin. Your queen seeks immortality on Earth. A false paradise. This is heresy. She leads you towards vanity away from the Spirit. But this is foolishness for death exists. The Day of Judgment is irrefutable. All life must be judged. But fear not. She will not be in hell alone. I will make sure her servants are waiting.

Tom CreoAll these years, all these memories, there was you. You pull me through time.
Izzi[embraces Tom]No, no. Listen, listen. He said that if they dug his father's body up, it would be gone. They planted a seed over his grave. The seed became a tree. Moses said his father became a part of that tree. He grew into the wood, into the bloom. And when a sparrow ate the tree's fruit, his father flew with the birds. He said... death was his father's road to awe. That's what he called it. The road to awe. Now, I've been trying to write the last chapter and I haven't been able to get that out of my head!
IzziListen. His body became the trees' roots. They spread and formed the earth. His soul became the branches rising up forming the sky. All the remained is first father's head. His children hung in in the heavens creating Xibalba.
Tom Creo[looks away, withdrawing]I'll pull out the car and meet you out front.

Tom CreoThrough that last dark cloud is a dying star. And soon enough, Xibalbia will die. And when it explodes, it will be reborn. You will bloom...

IsabelThe beast runs amok in my kingdom. He has isolated me, and now he is sharpening his talons for one more fateful push. But salvation lies in the jungles of New Spain. Will you deliver Spain from bondage?
