The Mistery of Belicena Villca the top of a mountain range that started as an arm from the main chain . Everything indicated that the descent would begin there , but the immediate events would disprove that presumption . Suddenly , around a bend , the road ended abruptly in front of an impenetrable stone wall : the mountain stood up before the caravan , preventing their passage . Any European , in similar situation , would have turned around and looked for another path that would cross the obstacle : that would be the logical thing to do . But it was clear that the Amautas of the Black Bonnet , like the Lords of Tharsis , did not abide by the principles of Logic . Those , undeterred , got out of their seats and indulged in some strange preparations . The Men of Stone , still amazed by the stop , took a closer look at the mountain wall and then , almost simultaneously , understood what was happening : they were in the presence of an entrance sealed by the Vrunes of Navutan , an entrance similar to that of the Secret Cavern of Cerro Candelaria , in distant Huelva . Now the Vrunes were clearly perceptible to them and they would have been able to pass through the wall in an instant , just by strategically approaching the hidden opening . However , it did not escape them that only the Hyperborean Initiates are capable of performing that operation : in the House of Tharsis only a few among thousands of descendants had managed to do it and that earned them being considered Noyos or Vrayas . What would they do then ? Would they abandon the four Catalans ?; and , the most intriguing : how would those rude warriors pass , who you could see they weren ' t Initiates in any way ?
The answers were soon to come . One of the Amautas took a container of purunku and , uncovering it , proceeded to give a drink to each of the warriors of his guard . Minutes later the concoction had taken effect and the indians were hypnotized , staring without blinking but keeping their balance . Evidently , the drug had momentarily deprived them of their conscience , for the Amautas took them by the shoulders and pushed them up to the rocks of the mountain ; and they let themselves be led docilely . But what was most admirable for the Lords of Tharsis was to observe how the Amautas would introduce the warrior in the secret entrance and disappear inside of the enormous stones , to return immediately to look for the next one .
– Gods ! --Lito de Tharsis exclaimed . If our House had possessed the formula of that substance ...
At last only the Spaniards were left on that side of the mountain , and the Amautas offered the purunku , beckoning them to drink . The six Men of Stone gave up trying the drug , but forced the Catalan skeptics to do it . Each of them took a sip and minutes later , they experienced a slashing effect : they fell to the ground soundly asleep . Thus , they had to be dragged to the secret entrance , but inexplicably it was now possible to introduce them into it .
That secret entrance did not lead , as in Huelva , to a cave but to a tunnel about a hundred meters long , at the end of which arose a new cause for startle for the Lords of Tharsis . Indeed , at the exit of the tunnel they found themselves in the middle of a stone road with small walls on the sides and perfectly aligned from North to South , which was lost in the distance towards both cardinal points . On the lateral walls , engraved with signs of the Futhark runic alphabet , inscriptions and signs were seen at certain stretches .
– There is no doubt that it is a Germanic language . However – commented Lito – this road has all the appearance of having been built by the white Atlanteans . Look at those stones ! The way they are carved ! these are authentic menhirs , that only They can have planted !
Lito ' s observation was promptly confirmed by the Amautas : when they came to those lands , many centuries ago , that path was already there . But only the Initiates could access it and that is why it was called " The Road of the Gods ". The white invaders could never find it although surely they would use the two parallel roads that the Ingas built imitating The Road of the Gods . But they , the two Amautas of the Black Bonnet , should not talk about these issues with the Huancaquilli because such a mission was reserved for the " Atumurunas ", who awaited them at the end of the Road .
