History of the Incas is a work by Pedro Sarmiento de Gamboa. It details the origins, myths and wars of the Incan Empire as a reading preparation for Phillip II.
A crowd of noblemen gathers, their pampered bodies packing the cavernous throne room. They murmur in awe, gazing toward the young man bound in gold chains. Alric walks slowly through the center of the chamber, feeling their eyes upon his bare flesh. His gilded bindings are tight, a physical symbol of unquestioning devotion. The onlookers relish his small, unsteady steps as he struggles toward the man sitting upon the throne. A foul magic flows through the hall. Silently and seductively, it warps and twists the mind. None are spared from its corrupting influence. None can deny the social transformation being wrought before their eyes. Tonight, a new hierarchy will be born. --- CONTAINS EXPLICIT GAY SEXUAL CONTENT. For more stories, visit www.KaiAubrey.com.Ver livro

“In this short story, you will see the tender heart of love and careful words of instruction of Mother. The law of kindness is on Mother’s tongue. She demonstrates watchful protection over Cammy and Sammy as she daily is in their presence. Parents can easily relate the mother’s heart, akin to the heart of Jesus as He is to His children. A wonderful and useful book. Had I had this book when my children were small, I certainly would have made use of it. I highly recommend this for all ages!” Patti Roberts- married homeschooling mother of seven with growing number of grand babies.“Mara-lee has given us a tremendous gift. Christians throughout history have systematically taught the faith to their children. This practice of systematic training in a catechism has become largely neglected by the Church in the last generation. Mara-lee’s hope is to bridge the gap between the old ways of training our kids up in solid doctrine, allowing them to wrestle with the deep things of God, and modern children’s story telling. I hope many find her work to be a blessing to the spiritual life of their children and a warm treasure in their home during the intimate times as the family gathers.” Pastor Jeff Durbin- married father of four, sought after for his debate skills and also the main host of ApologiaRadio.com“Mara-lee has peeked into a child’s inquiring mind and has given solid answers to questions about how to hear and respond to God’s voice. Children will love the way Cammy’s Adventures introduces them to new experiences in their lives. This delightful book will be a great tool for opening up discussions both at home and in the classroom.” Donna Lapp- married mother of 3, grandmother of 13 and great grandmother of 10. She is also a retired elementary grade school teacher.Ver livro
The story of Rome’s foundation is a captivating blend of myth and history, shaping the identity of one of the greatest civilizations in human history. Rooted in legend and forged through early struggles, the foundation of Rome reflects both its mythological beginnings and the realities of its initial development as a small settlement along the Tiber River. The legendary origin of Rome is steeped in the myth of Romulus and Remus, twin brothers born to the god Mars and a mortal princess named Rhea Silvia. Abandoned at birth and raised by a she-wolf, the brothers grew strong and brave. Eventually, they sought to establish a city where they had been rescued. However, a dispute over the location led to Romulus killing Remus, and Romulus became the sole founder of the city, naming it Rome after himself. This myth, while dramatic and symbolic, represents Rome’s spirit of resilience and its connection to both divine and mortal heritage. Historically, Rome’s beginnings were far more modest. Archaeological evidence points to the establishment of small villages on the Palatine Hill around the 8th century BCE. These communities were primarily Latin-speaking shepherds and farmers who gradually united for mutual protection and trade. Over time, the settlement expanded, eventually forming a cohesive community governed by local chieftains. The choice of location along the Tiber River proved strategic, offering both a water source and a means of trade and communication.Ver livro
