7 foot frame
Rats along his back
When he calls your name
It all fades to black
Yeah he sees your dreams
And feasts on your screams
But they don't see him how i've seen...
Fire
It was everywhere
Burning everything in sight
Everything that i'd ever known
That i'd ever loved
All except me and my Papai
But even then
We could never escape their wrath
Their thirst for conquest

Finally, after weeks, maybe even months, all alone in the jungle, we found something...
People
They were just on the other side of this mountain range... this impossibly tall mountain range.
But it'll all be worth it when we get to the other side. I can smell freshly baked tortillas and I hear the faint sounds of children laughing and music playing.
~~~
It's been a while of climbing, but we're so close to the top, I can almost see the roof of a giant lar on a hill...
Uh
Oh
Papai! I completely zoned out while climbing and forgot to help him up. He was badly injured in the attack and can barely walk on his own, i'm honestly surprised he got this far.
~~~
We made it to the bottom! A little worse for wear but we're okay. Time to head to the village...
Meu Deus... i didn't realize how tired i am... how long has it been since i last slept... maybe... we can just... rest here... for a moment...
~~~
where...
WHERE AM I?!
Who's house is this? Where's Papai? How long was I asleep? O QUE ESTÁ ACONTECENDO?!?
I can hear footsteps, whoever it is is at the door, i'm only eight, i'm too young to die!
"Oh! You're awake, good. My name is Alma Madrigal, I found you and your father passed out by the border."
