Sacrifice

    A new problem has occurred; three young Mayan children have been captured not more than a day ago.  Two girls, and a boy, all under the age of puberty. Their parents are devastated, and want their children back. 
   
    The captures are known as the Alyans, and they demand a sacrifice. If we don't give them the heart of our best, they will not give us our children back. At this point, we are unsure whether or not the Alyans have harmed the children. We do, however,  know that the children have not been given any food, and are far from replete. When they return home to us, we will feed them until they are completely satiated.
   
    Surely, we must save these children. We must soon find our best, and get them ready to be sacrificed. We will pay attention to all the minutiae, and all of the minuscule things that each of our people do. This unfortunate event has touched us all, and we will do everything possible to save them. All that we ask of you, is that you do everything possible to comply.
