Major Mungo Munro:
[about El Casco's guerrillas]
The story goes, there was a great shipwreck hereabouts, long long ago. A galleon, bearing treasure from Mexico to the King of Spain. Not only gold, but idols for him to see, even people from that terrible land. Richard Sharpe:
Treasure? Major Mungo Munro:
Ah that catches your ear, laddie? Well if it's still there, no one's found it! Bess Nugent:
William heard of it too. Ellie Nugent:
You said a 'terrible land'? Major Mungo Munro:
The Aztecs of Mexico were a high civilization, and entirely evil! Ellie Nugent:
How could that be? Lt. Ayres:
Their religion was based on human sacrifice. They cut the living hearts out of their prisoners... Major Mungo Munro:
That'll do for now, man. Lt. Ayres:
...thousands at a time. Or they skinned them. Major Mungo Munro:
I said that'll do! Lt. Ayres:
They even had a god of flaying...the flayed god... Richard Sharpe:
Stop gloating, Ayres! Lt. Ayres:
I came across it in my studies. Rather amusing. Ellie Nugent:
Major Munroe, you didn't mean there could be any of that here? Major Mungo Munro:
No. Well, maybe a taint turned into foolish nonsense, these folk are peasants. Ellie Nugent:
And that's all?
