Maya · deity · mythic · Recorded classification
The lords of Xibalba are a bureaucracy of specific diseases, which is the thing worth noticing about them: not death in general but this affliction, assigned to these two, by name. Xiquiripat and Cuchumaquic have the blood. The registry held the partner and not him.
