And man was left alone He was swimming in the depths of sadness. All the animals around him approached him and said: 'We don't want to see you so sad, whatever you wish, let's do it for you' The man said, 'I want to see better' The vulture said, 'You have my sight, take it The human said; 'I want to be stronger.' The Jaguar replied; 'You will be as strong as me.' Then the man said: 'I want to learn the secrets of the earth.' The snake said: 'I'll show you them all.' Thus, man went with all the characteristics he received from animals. After that, the owl turned to the remaining animals and said: 'Now man knows more and can do more. Now I'm starting to fear him.' The deer replied to him: Man got whatever he wanted. Now her sadness will be over. But the owl did not think so: 'I saw a void in man that he could never fill. It is this emptiness that upsets him and makes him want it all the time. He will continue to take it. Until the earth said to him: “Now I have nothing left to give you.” Apocalypto / 2006
