Among the defeated princes of the Fourfold Realm, the Sun’s division was no great crisis, with several native theologians comforting distraught colonizers by reminding them that ‘Viracocha has always wept.’ In the few Fourfold holy places permitted under the Viceroyalty, the Sun-in-Splendor’s image was almost overnight replaced easily by the Sun-in-Rags (called in Quechua the Begging Sun) and the rites adapted appropriately.

Start Description: ‘I’m always tempted to write a new edition with all I’ve learned, to bring it to perfection. But I understand the price often paid by those who pursue perfection. Let me take a look, and I can discuss a few ideas.’ [Delilah will examine the book and return it to you. She won’t leave until her other business is concluded.]
Description: ‘Is it strange that the Church abjured the faiths of the Fourfold and the Triple Alliance?
