My father was the first to rediscover Los Ocho Mundos. Initially, he dubbed it the Cloud Islands, due to the volcanic activity, but he soon learned that the locals referred to it as Los Ocho Mundos, translating to "the eight pains". After about 23 years exploring its mysteries. Every day, he shared with me the tale of a nameless warrior who faced the choice of six methods of execution.
The legend goes: The warrior was a POW who was given the choice of six executions and chose all of them: hanging, drowning, burning, crushing, beheading, and peace. The story was passed down from generation to generation. A very large mystery is that how can a man die and live to suffer the other 5? Or why is peace considered a death? Could peace be the very thing that saved the man or something more horrific?
at the end of the day legend is just a legend.
