Mayincatec | |
| The Emerald Forest / int_2af0378f | comment |
Mayincatec: Set in modern Latin America, but still valid with the priests, ceremonial paintings, magic chaman with a drug culture, cannibalism, Sacred stones and the usual jungle with its classic wildlife. | |

Going Native | |
| The Emerald Forest / int_3ebc57ac | comment |
Going Native: Tommy was raised as a native, but even when he had the chance to return to the city and modern world, he remained a native. Actually, he even becomes the savior and lawful chief of the tribe, first by finding the Sacred stones, then saving the women. | |

Language Barrier | |
| The Emerald Forest / int_a56e3cba | comment |
Language Barrier: Downplayed, since both Bill and Tommy understand a little of each other's language. They still have very different native tongues. | |
