Peruso Explains the Inca Empire
A pretty honest insight. With llamas, mountains, and slightly exaggerated stories.
Hello, Kids
"I'm Peruso. The smartest eight-year-old in the entire Inca Empire."
"Okay, maybe not the smartest. But definitely the funniest."
"Today I'll explain how things work around here."
"And no, we don't just sit around counting gold all day."
Llamas are everything
"So, the thing about llamas is true."
"They are our cuddly toys."
"And our taxis."
"Just without wheels."
"Because... we haven't invented them yet."
Big Temples and Even Bigger Problems
"We have temples so big you can almost touch the sky."
"If you fall down... a lot will occur to you on the way."
"For example, that maybe it wasn't such a good idea."
The Boss of Everything
"The Sapa Inca takes care of everything. Really everything."
Life in the Empire
"We have kings who call themselves Sapa Inca."
"That means something like: The guy who takes care of everything."
"And if you think it's always sunny here... nope."
"We have rain, mud, and sometimes even mountains that explode."
"But hey, no need to panic."
"We'll get through it with a smile."
"Or at least with a very crooked expression."
Machu Picchu
"Oh yes... Machu Picchu."
"Our secret place."
"Well... it used to be a secret."
"Now everyone seems to know."
"But I'll show you more of it later."
If you're not careful, I'll tell you about the ghosts in the mist.
Mwahaha.
