The Kurupi's Curse Chapter 1
Let me take you back to a time quite undefined by modern days
Prehistory as it would later be deemed was quite steeped in mystery
When dragons flew their flame lighting up the sky still undenied by human eyes In a place heaped in the God's graces Powerful beings known as deities still roamed the earth ever on the lurk for a way to integrate their seed into the now newly formed human race

But all was not right at this time for the aforementioned homosapians I spoke of strived to deny their own the right to an unmolested life for their need for gold im told did embold them to attack their own

A prosperous tribe known as the Gran Chaco that was positioned without competition in a place some would say today would be modern Paraguay Did trade with foreign countries thus making them very rich and replete in this their native seat
A man known as Marco who was proclaimed by blood as their king the Chacos did owe for this their prosperity that he sowed
Marco, while sitting on the throne did I'm told embold enough gold to be rolled in for them to bankroll a beautiful town for all to behold
Built from the finest honed stone available he saw to it that his nation's people were housed in the most prestigious accommodations thus relations with their king were that of thanks for this man's generous hands this land knew only of plenty For the Chaco knew no strife to live life in their seat meant prosperity replete with each their own land to sow as they saw fit

As a matter of fact their success attracted a lot of attention Soo much money rolled in from foreign trade they had trouble keeping it safe and out of the way from prying eyes
So King Marco directed a vault be built to hault any assault on their cash and it be placed into Mt. Illimani's base It would be the perfect site to store enough gold to bankroll a small country ten-fold while the solid granite walls would evade the most ambitious of thieves who sought to reave the Chaco's holdings

The kings proposal was heard far and wide in the Southern abide and when dieties got word of his dealings to secure Chaco's gold within their mountain hold it embolded them to take advantage of the plight by giving them sight of a ancient beings might
So an envoy of greedy dieties showed at the throne to be intercessors for the gold obsessors

It was quite the scene almost of disbelief to have beings that we consider myth to insist an audience with a human king
These were beings of lore never before had they set foot at human door
Marco's eyes became double their size when he spied them out of their normal abide

The first lurked in and seemed to be a giant snake no mistake with the head of a parrot
It was apparent the snake part was green with sheening white belly underneath It's head spread in beautiful red feathers Together it easily measured six meters long It slithered to the side and wound it's body around a column and gave solemn introduction "Greetings King Marco." "My name is Mboyti." "I come from the field domain to maintain your gold in this mountain hold I'm told you are building."

We are here to render protection to your tender

Then an ugly creature showed looking quite rough all covered in hairy scruff with spires growing ever higher from the top of its muff. It's teeth overshot its lips with fingertips that came to a pointed sharpened center It tumbled in and took a seat at the kings feet "I am Kurupi from the jungle domain" I will assist you if you wish to guard the gold Chaco holds but for a fee of course."

The third was the scariest...
