"Attic Mirror", part 11

So last night I was on polyphasic sleep again. I got back to it for almost two weeks now I guess, maybe more, I don't remember really my notion of time is a bit confused at the moment. Anyway last night I started to write this new part of Attic Mirror and I really hope that you will enjoy it. I really want to finish before the end of the month because I will be starting a new challenge on the first of April, but I'll tell you all about it in due time. So you can be expecting to see a lot more coming during the week, except if I oversleep but I'll try not to.
For the moment I'll let you enjoy the novel.

Peru : Back to Lima

En français
We went back to Lima the next day. It took us about a day to get there and we went to the same host again.
She had an other couch surfer at that time which was pretty cool.
The next day, we were trying to go somewhere (I don't remember where exactly) but we didn't managed to and ended up walking in the city center of Lima again and in a park. That was funny to see Christmas decorations in the middle of the summer.
In the evening we had a couch surfing party which was, my first couch surfing party. Too bad that my Spanish was really and still is really limited.

Peru : Cuzco's archeological sites

En français 
We spend the next day sleeping, we just went out for dinner and walking was kind of painful. Funny how we always need an extremely sportive day during our holidays.
The next day we decided to go visit the different archeological sites around Cuzco. We took a bus tour for that, which is the only bus tour we had ever taken during our trip but that was still cool.
The tour started in the Inca Museum which is a colonial mansion build on the old Qorikancha Inca temple of the sun.
We then went to Sacsahuamán  the Temple of thunder which belong to UNESCO World Heritage. The guide explained us that the local theory of the construction of the temple is that the Inca moved stones from far away and where using some vegetation substance to shape the stones to have them fit perfectly. However those plants are nowhere to be found. The scientists think that the stone have never been move.
When the Spanish conquistadors arrived they thought that the temple was a fortress and decided to fight with their guns against the Inca's arrow. They obviously won and decided to show their power by forbidding to remove the corpses of the dead from where they had fallen. That's why the field is call as well, "the place where the condors are satisfied."
We then went to Pacaritambo on Tambotoco Hill, where a water for long life is always pouring. The legend says that there is a lake in the cave behind. 
We then went to Q'enco which is a sort of tomb where the Inca were proceeding to sacrifices.

"Attic Mirror", part 10

Here is the last part of Attic Mirror. I'm writing slowly but I'm still writing. I can see the end of Attic Mirror coming, you will surely have more surprises reading it. I'm also thinking and dreaming a lot about more novels especially something that will fit with the new ending of Demon Soul as a sort of sequel in a sense even if the main characters will be different.
I hope you will enjoy knowing more about one of the characters that already appeared a few time in previous parts of Attic Mirror. Even if he is a secondary character, I worked so much on Antoine's background story (still not written and not planed on being written) that he feels to me like a main character. I hope to see more of him in the future, maybe in other stories even if for the moment I don't have ideas about it. He is a bit like the independent character that will appear at some point just because he feels like it.
