Well, I think, I mean, that description applies to me as well.

I don't think I'm a snorer.

I mean, no one would call you burly in a million years.

See how burly Tom is, exactly.

Exactly.

So we ended with night falling, the carrion crows feasting on the bodies of the dead, and so on and so forth.

And let's pick up straight away on the morning of the 17th of November, 1533.

Atahualpa wakes and he's in a state of shock.

Clearly Pizarro has got up first without disturbing him because he's taken in... Cup of tea?

Yeah, to see Pizarro and the other Spanish captains.

We found him full of fear, thinking that we were going to kill him.

Well, duh.

Yeah.

And Pizarro says to Atahualpa this amazing thing.

He says, don't be sorrowful.

He says, we Christians, we've gone to many countries, we've met many mighty rulers, and one way or another, we've made them all our friends and vassals, so you shouldn't be shocked that we've captured you.

I don't know whether that's any consolation.

Well, I suppose it kind of is because it suggests they're not going to kill him.

Well, hold on.
