MAYAN GIANTS
A few years ago, Martín lived in the town of Chikindzonot. One afternoon, when he was returning from the mountain, he took the wrong road and got lost. Suddenly a terrible being appeared ready to devour him: it was Che Uinic Martin did not know what to do whether to hide or escape, suddenly he remembered that his grandmother had told him the legend of his ancestors The tall, muscular “Che Uinic” has no bones and walks with his feet backward. To be able to walk you need a tree as a cane He feeds on human flesh, and he has to sleep standing up because if he lay down it would be impossible to get up Remembering it, Martin cut the branch of a small tree and began to hit himself. Seeing such a graceful dance, Che Uinic began to laugh so much that he fell to the ground and Martín took the opportunity to flee
Another giant is the H-Wayak that is dedicated to breaking people's bones Doña Elsy went out to the patio at night to collect the clothes, at that moment she saw from a distance that what seemed to be a normal person was approaching, but as she approached, her size increased until she exceeded the height of the trees When she saw him by her side, Doña Elsy was paralyzed withfright and the giant took the opportunity to squeeze her with his huge hands. Luckily he fell on straw and was safe Upon hearing the noise, her husband ran out with a machete and began to yellat the H-Wayak with all his might to scare him. The annoying giant uprooted a tree and left.
These are just some of the giants that haunt the roads and the memory of the Mayan world. Thereare many other fantastic beings who also have to be careful. To protect yourself or escape fromthem it is necessary to be cautious and not lose your temper, although it is also possible to challenge them
