Adapting to life in the city

Yolotl woke up from the bed with his wife very early in the morning, woke up his children and gave thanks to mother tonantzin for allowing him to live a new day.

When the little morning ritual ended, his wife started to eat breakfast, placed the briquettes in brown partitions inside the stove and took a flint to light the fire, meanwhile Yolotl bathed the children occupying the shower because it was a area with warm weather the water in its exit was quite refreshing, they occupied something called soap to clean their bodies and shampoo for their heads.

The children quickly adapted to the soap and shampoo, after they bathed followed Yolotl.

When he finished and changed he went to the kitchen where he had served grilled fish and corn tortillas on the table, this is quite a different breakfast than they are usually used to, the meat they only get when they hunt and they have to finish the same day since to conserve it is quite expensive, but in this place the salt is a common good, each family is granted in the mornings one or several dried salted fish and mace of corn, Flavio has planned to increase the basic basket with beans, meat of some other animal, vegetables and milk, but because it will take years to adapt the animals and plants that they brought can only be conformed with maize of corn or wheat and dried fish, also for the military there is crocodile meat.

When Yolotl went out he left his children in elementary school, they will be given a uniform and a blackboard so they can do their jobs at home and in class, the school was quite simple since the main building was under construction , there are more than 50 temporary primary schools and more than 30 nurseries in Origin Civitatem, Flavio hopes to build large schools to house more students, taking as a reference the building he built for the navy (Naval Academy of Kiel).

One of the things that surprised Yolotl and his children were the rare animals they had never seen, animals with horns, animals with a large neck and yellow with black spots, they wondered if someday someone in the family could become someone like them.

The road to the temporary school was quite comfortable to walk as it was a smooth surface of chapapote that did not hurt when walking with their sandals, they were also surprised to see a kind of stone rod next to the road that had something in the upper part who looked fragile in glass, on the way they met other members of their tribe with their children on their way to school, during the following minutes they talked about how comfortable life was in the houses that were granted and how tasty it was It was the fish in the mornings.

When they arrived at the school they could see a female guard guarding the entrance to the school, this allows the children to enter and be sheltered for the rest of the day, Yolotl left his children with other parents, when this ended he proceeded with his other members of your tribe to the ministry of employment to see that they are dedicated so they can earn their own livelihood.

In the Edahi school the eldest son of Yolotl guided his sister to the new entrance hall, the tribe of Nahuales gives special priority to the leader of the tribe chosen by Tezcatlipocatl, this can change family or person therefore the children of the leader of the tribe are respected but there is no higher value, this explains why almost all the children of the tribe go their own way regardless of what Edahi does.

The new classroom was a space with wooden floors and walls of red stone, the boys regardless of age or sex were gathered while they sat in the chairs of the place, a teacher spoke with them and explained the laws of the school and the schedules of their classes

(The amaranth and the chia are quite nutritious plants that the Aztecs and other Mesoamerican peoples consumed so much was their nutritional value that when the Spaniards arrived they avoided their sowing so that the subjugated peoples could not consume it and have a better nutrition and therefore more forces to rebel, they just left them with corn and beans enough so that they did not die of hunger but neither did they have the strength to think about rebelling, a cruel but effective way to subdue by feeding)

Yolotl and his tribe members met in the ministry of work a beautiful red stone building, in that place they asked their strengths to each of them, the apothecary of the tribe was sent to the hospital to learn formal medicine and for that instructs with its knowledge of local Herbs the functions of each one of them is a mutual learning, Flavio does not want to commit the errors of the Spaniards of ignoring the knowledge of the natives for feeling that they were "inferior" to do that would be a lack of respect for the knowledge that was passed generation after generation after countless tests and errors.

The other members were sent to different places, for example those who knew how to treat skins were sent to the forges where they would learn to tan skins to improve their quality and resistance, if they knew how to weave the looms they will teach new weaving techniques, others were sent to the City guard as "MP" the military police implemented Flavio to take care of the safety of civilians and prevent abuse by the military.

Yolotl was sent to the praetorian guard along with another girl because of their nahual forms, in the barracks of the Praetorian guard they saw amazing things like elves that communicated with plants and these grew with the will of them or Dwarves that made their hammers they warmed to the point of becoming red hot, there were also humans occupying small magics such as handling the elements water, earth, fire and air, Yolotl as Yareni felt that their days in this place would not be boring.

Although the nahuales are forbidden to show their transformation in general Yolotl asked permission to Tezcatlipoca to show their transformations to their new companions, the god accepted and with that Yolotl became before the eyes of his curious companions in a Wolf of quite large silver fur and Yareni became a beautiful jaguar, in spite of being animals you could tell they were different to them, from the size as much more intelligent behavior.

When the demonstration ended and they returned to normal, someone asked them what would happen if in their animal forms they had relations with another female animal in the case of Yolotl and if they were pregnant in their animal form by a male jaguar in the case of Yareni, they answered that in those cases would create a human hybrid that would inherit the animal features that were his parents along with his human form, for example if Yolotl pregnant a wolf this would have babies with human form but with tail and wolf ears, explained that there are tribes in the jungle with these characteristics but they are quite mistreated therefore they hide.

Everything proceeded without incident once the day was over everyone returned to their homes at 6 o'clock only in the case of guards they had to cover shifts, when they left their places they could see a beautiful scene, some people with green clothes a ladder to the posts and lit a light which illuminated the place and gave a beautiful and mystical touch to the place, with this they did not have to worry about picking up their children in the darkness since the light helped them.

In the imperial palace Flavio read the report of the nahuales and learned about these hybrids, he never really thought they existed but since Flavio exists, he loves them, who knows maybe one of his grandchildren has Jaguar ears, just thinking about it motivates him to find them and take care of them, you can say that it is their first whim as emperor ...
