First page of Iván G Azuara's 'The Letter'. An older man examines an archaelogical object. There's narration throughout the page. 'My dear nephew, thank you so much for sending me such an astonishing piece. In all my years as a professor, I've never seen anything quite like it. Its reliefs and decorations... I cannot place their origin. And the bas-relief conveys an impossible depth for such a carving. It grips your attention... in a manner...'. We see the man looking at his books and studying. 'I have searched my extensive library for days...But I regret to say I found nothing related to the carving.' The old man goes to visit his colleague Max, who also studies the piece. 'So I went to see Max, a colleague and expert in mythology. Like myself, he was taken aback. He studied the carving in detail.'
