The War in Heaven hit the kingdoms of the Amazon harder than most. The Maya, Aztec and Inca peoples knew that they would be overrun if they could not unite against the Demons. Sapa Inca, the god-empress of the Inca people, united the three nations, forming a successor state to the ancient Olmec Empire. Smaller city-states resisted Sapa Inca’s rule, but the Demons preyed on these dissident elements without the protection of the larger whole. Sapa Inca was eventually killed during the War In Heaven, but her son, Cuauhtemoc the Tlatoani, took up her mantle, leading the men of Olmec to consolidate power across the southern half of their continent.
