Marquez:
Ha ha! Thank you for saying so. But my aching body knows the truth; those days are ended for me. Lately I have at least tried to pass my knowledge to younger, stronger adventures by writing an account of my experiences on the island.
I started by recounting my own experiences and stories I learned from the natives. But then I heard of an ancient book detailing the history of Primeval Isle, and I have searched for it for years now without success. I was ready to give up..until Clark sent me a message that he has found it. Ah, I see by your expression that you are as curious about its contents as I am!
The ancient Language is no dubt foreign to you, but I can translate a few passages if you are interested in hearing them. Shall I do so?
I know that I am too old now to venture again into the wild interior, but the island's mystery still quickens my heart.
"Tell him that you are interested in hearing the translation."
