[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Lew Wallace also wrote another novel called THE FAIR GOD about the Spanish conquest of Mexico.
In one chapter a Spanish soldier stumbles into the fabled underground city under the Aztec capitol.
There he finds one of the Aztec maidens and he escorts her out to the daylight. As they walk, he tells her of Christ and by the time they reach the exit to this underground city she has accepted Christ as Savior.
Upon opening the door to get out of the undeground city they find the Spanish and Aztecs embroiled in a hot war. She is struck by an errant crossbow shaft and dies a Christian saint.

This book was re-published in 1962 in paperback as a prelude to Warner Brothers making a movie (SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE!) of it. The movie never was done.

Seems like now would be a great time to produce that film, regarding demographics and polling data.
