Inspired by R.F. Kuang's The Poppy War, this story brings to life the Mexica Patheon, the Christian God, and his angels. What does the battle to protect their home look like for the Mexica with the help of their Patheon? What does colonization look when you see people twisted by the whispers of angels? History is one story. This will be another—one where the people at the center are people who had their stories buried.
