The story beyond Pizarros glory 13 or what he really found in 1527. A fictional story that might have happened on the edge as he conquered the south of America. Pizarro is on his way to conquering the new world and on his first trip he heard of fabulous riches in Central and South America. So after an unsuccessful 1. and 2nd expedition in 1527 with the "Roman Thirteen" (trece de Gallo) from Colombia to find the legendary gold lands in the south. When he returned to Spain via Panama, he not only brought gifts and gold from the Indians with him, but also a siren that he had captured on the way to Peru. Obsessed and enchanted by her golden glow and her golden voice, he tries to win her heart. He is, however, cursed, forever addicted to the luster and glow of gold, to search for it all his life. Since he cannot get her heart blind with greed and madness in this obsession, he kills her in the belief that he has finally reached his goal and has the power of gold. With her death, however, he does not break the curse but ends the protective magic of the sirens over the Inca empire, so that the conquests take place and thousands of sailors lose their lives, only to drive the Europeans into the madness of the search for El Dorado.
