The Amazon temple.

Professor Richard Michaelson was an archaeology teacher at Harvard University.

He had taken a year's sabbatical from teaching to follow up on reports that the famous temple of Tlazolteotl, the goddess of filth, had been located in central Mexico.

Which also would give it time for the rumours that he got one of his students pregnant to die down.

Once he arrived in Mexico City, the professor met up with his colleague, Dr Martinez & wasted no time setting out with two guides into the Mexican wilderness.

To reach the doctor's camp, it took 4 long and hard days.

The professor confirmed that this was the temple of the goddess Tlazolteotl, who was the goddess of filth, sin, vice, and sexual misdeeds. 

However, she was also a purification goddess who forgave the sins and diseases caused by misdeeds, particularly sexual misdeeds.

The next day, they prepared to enter the temple, avoiding many traps and obstacles in their way.

They entered the goddess's chamber, stared up at the statue, and were amazed at how complete it was.

The professor cleared the weeds and vines away & started to translate the words on the plinth beneath the statue.

Roughly translated to:
Only he or she without sin may gain my blessing, but those with a wicked heart and a corrupt soul will feel my wrath.

The professor laid one hand on the feet of the statue and screamed out in pain as he felt his body being ripped apart from the Inside out. He passed out, and when he came to, the high priestess was waiting for him.

She said to him, "Our goddess says you have an unworthy soul & have sent you to us to be a Daughter of the god, and to live a noble and worthy life & to be the mother of a new generation of followers.
