Old Slim
From Game Logs
You may think he's a sleepy tired guy
Always takes his time
Sure I know you'll be changing your mind
When you've seen him use a gun, boy
В 1896 году партия "приключенцев", расследовавшая исчезновения людей в регионе, в отрогах южной Сьерра-Мадре обнаружила ацтекский храм, оккупированный группой ацтеков в процессе человеческого жертвоприношения. Последовавший штурм увенчался относительным успехом, возглавлявший церемонию жрец был убит непосредственно в момент вырезания сердца у одного из пленников. Церемония осталась незаконченной, пленник скончался на месте, где и был оставлен. А на восходе солнца - зашевелился, встал и пошёл. Снег, оседающий на его голые плечи, таять не собирался.
Always takes his time

Век спустя некто болезненно тощий, коричневый и задубевший от жизни под ярким солнцем, сидит на крыльце домика, затерянного в Колумбийских джунглях. Из-под ковбойской шляпы в улыбке сверкают золотые коронки на зубах, из глубоко запавших глаз во все стороны разбегаются траншеи морщин. Он сидит так уже давно, не моргая, не дыша, не шевелясь. Двигаются только губы, словно разговаривающие с кем-то невидимым, и пальцы, поглаживающие роговую рукоять массивного револьвера в бедренной кобуре. Нет ли здесь связи с предыдущим абзацем?
