José led his men under the thick jungle canopy. Wet, fetid plants smeared grime over their polished breastplates. The oppressive heat weighed down upon them. Raucous birds and insects competed to outdo each other in a cacophony. It was a stark contrast to his villa in Valencia. Once again, he swore undying enmity against his brother. He should be home raising horses. Instead, he was disinherited, traipsing through the vibrant, green hell and battling a world full of creatures great and small who all wished death upon them.
