When he attempts to return to his first wife, Yumi is drawn into a vast struggle with all the gods of the legend.He and his wife visit the City of Magic, Tierrapaulita, where they undergo a series of transformations. The final struggle is a nightmare panorama with Indian forces pitted against distorted Christian powers.
