A bunch of intrepid and cunning Spaniards, take the Inca prissioner and he offer a incredible ransome. The story begins with the initiating rites of the noble youngsters who would become the noble men, commanders of the Army and rulers of the two sides of this civil war. The arrival of the Spaniards coincided with the intrigues in the two Incas palaces in Quito and Cusco, who fed the ambitions of the two Inka brothers, Huascar and Atao Huallpa, with each one coveting the Inka throne and thus they began a civil war. With the dramatic force of an epic work, this play shows us the development of the struggle and confrontation between the victorius Inka Atao Huallpa and the Spaniards who captured him in the city of Cajamarca, in spite of the Inca’s Army surrounding the city.
