After the conquest of the Inca Empire by the Spanish invaders, only a few native princes managed to flee into the mountains. In Machu Picchu, a hidden city in the Andes, they build up a new peaceful society with their families. But beware: The Spanish are nearby and threaten to discover their last enclave! The Incas must use all their priests and virgins of the sun to acquire the help of the sun god Tayta Inti.
