Unexpectedly, pyramid-like ruins appeared at the horizon breaking the eternal green of the jungle. Already half taken over by the all-devouring jungle vegetation but still clearly recognisable there was an actual city - ancient, but obviously populated. Having heard about the pyramids of the southern desert we instinctively related the jungle monuments to the same culture and to the people settling in the city of Ankrahmun. While we cautiously steered our boats closer to the beach and wondered about the mysterious origins of this jungle city, more and more apes showed up on the beach, yelling at us in threatening poses. Strangely enough, they were wearing various kinds of equipment - actually wearing it, not randomly strapped to the body like some mindless beast might have done. Due to the obvious hostility we stayed far enough from them to avoid the coconuts and stones they hurled in our direction. I was left solely with the option to examine the strange apes and the ruins through my spyglass and was able to spot different kinds of apes which wore sparse clothing and equipment such as weapons in a way that made clear they knew what they were doing. However some - if not most - equipment looked odd on them, as if made for creatures of a completely different build. A closer look at the ruins revealed that they were not as ruined as I had thought at first, in fact most were only overgrown by the jungle. The visible remains displayed impressive work and art. Oddly, most patterns on the walls showed serpents and lizards of some kind which for sure did not fit the hairy humanoids inhabiting the city. Then I saw the first statues. Although obviously damaged on purpose and turned into almost unrecognisable heaps of stone, some of them showed features of two legged, upright walking lizards complete with weaponry and other equipment. Instantly I remembered the stories of intelligent, yet savage lizard men which were rumoured to live somewhere in the deepest jungle. | Unexpectedly, pyramid-like ruins appeared at the horizon breaking the eternal green of the jungle.

Inesperadamente, em forma de pirâmide, ruínas apareceram no horizonte quebrando o verde eterno da selva. Já meio devorada pela vegetação da selva, mas ainda claramente reconhecível, havia uma cidade real - antiga, mas obviamente povoada. Tendo ouvido falar sobre as pirâmides do deserto do sul, instintivamente relacionadas aos monumentos da selva para a mesma cultura e para as pessoas que se estabelecem na cidade de Ankrahmun. Nós cautelosamente orientamos os nossos barcos para perto da praia e nos perguntamos sobre as origens misteriosas desta cidade na selva, os macacos mais e mais apareciam na praia, e gritavam para nós nos ameaçando. Estranhamente, eles usavam vários tipos de equipamentos - realmente usando, não aleatoriamente amarrado ao corpo como uma fera irracional poderia ter feito. Devido à hostilidade óbvia nós ficamos longe o suficiente deles para evitar os cocos e pedras que eles atiravam em nossa direção. Fiquei apenas com a opção de examinar os macacos estranhos e as ruínas através da minha luneta e fui capaz de detectar diferentes tipos de macacos, que usavam roupas escassas e equipamentos, tais como armas de uma maneira que deixou claro que eles sabiam o que estavam fazendo. No entanto, alguns - se não mais - equipamentos pareciam estranhos para eles, como se tivessem sido construídos para criaturas completamente diferentes. Um olhar mais próximo das ruínas revelou que eles não eram tão arruinado como eu tinha pensado num primeiro momento, na verdade, a maioria estavam apenas cobertos pela selva. Os restos visíveis exibia um trabalho impressionante e artístico. Estranhamente, a maioria dos padrões nas paredes mostravam serpentes e lagartos de algum tipo que certeza não se encaixavam com os humanóides peludos que habitavam a cidade. Então eu vi as primeiras estátuas. Embora obviamente danificadas de propósito e transformadas em montes quase irreconhecíveis de pedra, algumas delas apresentavam características de duas pernas, lagartos andando com armamento e outros equipamentos. Imediatamente lembrei-me das histórias de inteligentes, de selvagens homens lagartos que era rumores de viver em algum lugar profundo da selva. | |||
