La Llorona

**La Llorona** is the spiritual ghost of a woman who lived a normal life with a Spaniard, until problems of coexistence between nations would soon arise, to the point that her husband thinks about divorce. The woman at that time went through a bad time at such a discovery to the point of killing her children. Then she would have an adventure in which she encounters a snake or rather a dragon which took her out of the dead world to the human world, having limited power but capable of killing someone.

The Cry Woman

The presence of ghostly beings that cry in the rivers for various reasons is a recurring feature of the mythology of the Mesoamerican peoples. This is how features of these spectra can be found in various pre-Columbian cultures, which eventually, with the arrival of the Spanish conquerors, assumed common features due to the expansion of Hispanic rule over the continent. The legend is a story that has mythical references in the pre-Hispanic universe, but that establishes its drama and its imaginary and distressing procession in the colonial order.

To explain the origin of the legend of La Llorona, three main aspects have been proposed: a literalist approach, that is, the events really occurred: a woman killed her own children and from there, the story was told over and over again time until turning the woman into a ghost and the story into a legend; an euhemerist approach, that is, where a myth is superimposed on a real story with specific referents (this is the case, for example, in which the myth of the goddess Cihuacóatl is superimposed on the story of Malinche); and finally, a parabolic approach, which has an apologetic and symbolic reading, with a hidden meaning, in which history emerges as a way of giving voice to silenced sectors, in this case, the indigenous people during the Conquest and colonization

## **History**

In the early seventeenth century, a really beautiful-looking native woman was deeply in love with a Spanish man from the colony, who also fell in love with her and even wanted to marry them. She accepted and they began to live together, but due to the machismo of the time, the woman could not accompany him, as he had many meetings and duties, as he was a prominent diplomat of the time. However, they both enjoyed each other's company in the time they could be together. The couple had three children in ten years, but the woman still felt dissatisfied with an aspect that did not even make her sleep some nights, which was the fact that the in-laws did not accept the relationship because she was of a different class than her husband, this it was not something well seen at the time and was even considered a serious fault for the most conservative parents. Because of this, the woman was filled with hatred against the family with each passing day, and keeping in mind that problem that was troubling her.

What neither of them knew was that a monster was being born that, along with the fact that she was very jealous of her husband and comments from outsiders that he was thinking of leaving her at any moment, would unleash true misery. One evening, blinded by these negative feelings, she decided to take her children out of the house and run to a river that was relatively close. There she held fast to the youngest of them and drowned him until he died, as did the other two.

In the middle of the murder, and after the woman unloaded all the hatred she had built up from killing her children, for a moment her mind was able to clear and she realized what she had done. She had just killed his three children by drowning them in a river and it was neither a dream nor a nightmare as one would have it be. These were the facts, she had just ended the lives of three young innocent children that she herself had cared for as they were in her womb. Because of this, the woman began to scream desperately while crying, something that continued for a considerable time. However, since the water flow took the children away and the disturbing situation that occurred, it caused a kind of amnesia; so she got up quickly and started looking for the three children, believing that she had lost them, while crying desperately for no apparent reason (according to her).

### The Escape

La Llorona was previously a spirit or soul which was in a dead world, a place where souls from a different path arrived with the purpose of being destroyed. La Llorona on her way to the final door, decided to jump into the oblivion under the stairs begging to return to her old life as a human being. She was persecuted by other souls who tried to tell her that it was not possible and the destiny she will have if she returns will be very different from what she really needs, to leave the past, that everything must continue in a firm line for us. However, its terrifying aspects made her keep running to the door to reach the human world. She was stopped in time, however, unlike all the other souls, the reason she was in the dead world was not because her path had to be destroyed, but because it was the line to stop her from reaches the human world and does not cause terror. Thus La Llorona was kept tied with chains so that she could not escape.

After a while, La Llorona had become corrupted and her adrenaline became very powerful and her soul managed to connect with one of her versions which her path was accepted in the human world, which for her did not make sense since she wanted that purpose, that meaning of life, to be at least in the human world. He only longed for his freedom and to receive that path, each time making his corruption worse to the point that the chains could sense the potential which emerged from his being. She was able to keep calm for a while and she couldn't believe what he became, a monster, she couldn't stand the fact that he was becoming such a bad influence that even by just seeing his mental state, even she already knew that she couldn't go. to the human world even as a wandering soul.

Her strength was exhausted, she could not maintain her negative state any longer, she could not believe what was happening to her, she only screamed with her being to kill her, however the other souls did not have the luxury of doing that, she had to cross the door, but for that the chains had to be cut and if they did that, their negative part would have more freedom. She was crying, she could only think about what she did, her husband, her children, the love that was given to her, she had lost. There was no back, only the present and what the future awaits.

The story continues and hope ends. She heard a voice, she couldn't deduce who or what but she could hear the voice clearly in his head, it was nothing more than an illusion, her schizophrenia perhaps, who could even deduce if a soul could suffer from such a thing. The world around her was just her mind or maybe someone else's mind. There was nothing more to lose, her moment would never end if she continued in that state, the story without end, an end without story, the story that only continues no matter what, her world, her own sphere, the fall of nowhere, Space-time is made up of hierarchies where its reference or state exists; spiritual, mental, physical and conceptual.

All of space-time was what surrounded her, the infinite and vast multiverse hiding more truths and mystery that humans still do not know. Who I am? Who I was? The narrative only seeks suffering by trying to spread good, narratives are the equivalent of worlds, even more come out of a narrative by the same way worlds still making new worlds by their actions, opportunities and choises, even in a very large number like infinity. What good was studying at school to know how infinite the world is? The world is falling but I can rebuild it. From where I have heard of, quantum mechanics and those possibilities makes new worlds, new universes, that's how one can build its own universe by their actions. The world hide mysteries that humans cannot comprehend or they just do not search them or just ignoring them.

The universe, the plane of possible things. Anything's possible. Everything that was, can be, and will be imagined can exist and even be possible for the universe. And still many of them growing infinitely on the multiverse. Even things wich are impossible match up with the universe. As I myself, able to see this chains I can be able to see what humans doesn't know from the universe. As well as being the sum total of all that exists, has existed, and will exist.

Me and him, him and me. A snake flies above me, although it also looks like a dragon. It takes me with him, am I condemned to live in this world of misery? I only say "and now what?".
