Amteca is an ancient city originally under the protection of the The Golden Condor and the guardian deity, the Chief God of the Beast Gods, Riva. On the night of the 300th moon, an evil creature that ate gold appeared. The Golden Condor was bound by the Cords of Hell. Bereft of protection from the sacred bird, the city was dealt a catastrophic blow. Devastated by the corruption of the Tainted Insect, the people of the Golden City met their end with their city and pleaded for some future savior to set free the Golden Condor.[1]
