"Ah! I remember hearing about these 'vampires'! Guys in wide-brimmed hats supposedly?" She looks to Dr. Sanchez for confirmation. "They steal people's body fat by chopping them up with long knives, weird tools or magic through a hole in the liver - often when the victim is drunk or out of it somehow. Don't they sell whatever excess they have to clergymen or hospitals?" She grimaces. "Well if nothing else we can check out those in the locality later."

"That makes sense," says Amy. "If the Luis de Mendoza in the journal is the same one, he must have been a kharisiri all along. I had thought maybe he'd been struck by a curse or something. How did he come to be one? Maybe it's hereditary."

Anderson is still too dizzy and isn't able to remember anything at all. Maybe he should have actually read anything about Peru before coming?
Re: [IC]Prologue Part 2 - Puno, March 1921
Cynthia shakes her head and sighs. "I've no idea Amy; and we still don't know if they have any weaknesses. It's getting late - perhaps we should have something to eat and then settle down for the night. I suspect we'll all need a good sleep before setting off on our quests tomorrow. Shall we follow the same procedure as we did in Lima: no less than two to a room?"
She jerks a thumb towards Husiy. "And what about him? We can't exactly kidnap him and force him to spend the night here."

"Husiy can stay with us tonight, for his own safety. Let me see the journal again though, before we go to our rooms," says Jackson, "hmm, I don't know Gaspar Figueroa seemed to think that his friends including de Mendoza became ill in the night after damaging the pyramid and then attacked him and tried to consume him."
"I am certainly not convinced that Figueroa's attacker and our Luis de Mendoza are one and the same, but I saw his dead body, and you helped to hide the body Dr. Sánchez. And yet hours later he was helping Larkin to board a tram and then murdering again at the haulage yard. I saw Trinidad's body as well - that was not done by a knife."
Karla Gonzales passes some coca leaves to Cynthia, "You must chew on these leaves, you and anyone else who is suffering from the mountain air. In the morning you will feel much better."
Her husband Alejandro says, "We do not want to believe in the tales of the kharisiri bogeymen who stalk the hills, but many people disappear - too many now. Mostly from the countryside, but recently, sometimes even those walking the streets of Puno at night.
"That is why people may have stared at you, the people of Puno fear pale skinned strangers."

Dr. Sánchez will purchase 2 week supply of cocaleaf, eat, drink a glass of wine. Later that evening he will asure Husiy that these gringos are ok, that this expedition is in part to free the hills of the dangers that lurks there."Deberias ayudarnos Husiy, nos hace falta alguien que nos ayude a cargar nuestro equipaje" -> "You should help uss Huisy we could use someone to help us carry our luggage"
After taking care of his blistered arm go to bed fully clothed. He will take the same room as Husiy and fall asleep.

Cynthia thanks Karla and duly chews on some of the leaves, assuming that Dr. Sanchez has purchased enough for all of them. She also has a meal and something to drink.
"Hey Amy, I guess we're bunking together again huh? Remember what I taught you about that pistol, just in case."

"Yeah, we're roommates, just like in college," says Amy with a grin. "I remember, but I'm no Annie Oakley yet." She thanks Karla as well, chewing on the coca leaves and eating supper. "I've never been this high up before. I've been to the Adirondacks, but that's nowhere near as elevated as this. I guess the kharisiri got that way because of a curse or something after all, when they defiled the pyramid. We'll learn more when we talk to Nayra tomorrow."

Marcus retires to his room, keeping a close watch over John. Just in case, he sleeps with his pistol within reach.

"I'm going to bed too, I hope to be better tomorrow".- says Anderson
Re: [IC]Prologue Part 2 - Puno, March 1921
"Yes, thank you!" says Husiy, "I shall help to carry your bags and free Puno of the kharisiri."
