Over the past few days, countless people have rumored about strange people traveling along the edge of our lands. They are told to have a strange pale skin color, as well as very strange attire. Montezuma tells people not to be worried, he welcomes these people as if they have been living in our lands forever. Montezuma tells the leader of these newcomers: "My lord, you have become fatigued, you have become tired: to the land you have arrived. You have come to your city: Mexico, here you have come to sit on your place, on your throne. Oh, it has been reserved to you for a small time, it was conserved by those who have gone, your substitutes... This is what has been told by our rulers, those of whom governed this city, ruled this city. That you would come to ask for your throne, your place, that you would come here. Come to the land, come and rest: take possession of your royal houses, give food to your body." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_conquest_of_the_Aztec_Empire). Most people think that it is much better to be cautious about these strange people than welcome them into our territory. Some have also heard of people like these from different areas to the north of our great empire. Those stories told of these pale- skinned people wiping out the people living there.
