"I learned with you
that there are new and better emotions ... "
"I learned with you
to know a new world of illusions ... "
"I learned that the week has more than seven days
to make greater my few joys
and to be happy I learned with you ... "
"I learned with you
to see the light on the other side of the moon ... "
"I learned with you
that your presence does not change it for any ... "
"I learned that a kiss can be sweeter and deeper
that I can leave tomorrow of this world
the good things I already lived with you ... "
"I learned with you
that I was born the day I met you ... "
After arriving at the end of the song a trumpets solo accompanied by the guitars and advancing the song in the chorus was returned to sing part of the lyrics for the end to end with a strong applause
All present cried for the beauty of the melody, but Flavio did not think to stop there, if only he left them with tears it would not be the right thing because it is his wedding and also the most important hellena day simply can not finish that way
Therefore he makes a signal with his hand and they enter more musicians and begin to play a song that will please the hearts of the people "the huapango de Moncayo" or as he named it in Latin "Canticum Gaudium" (Song to Joy).

The historian Tito Livio wrote: "Rome owes much of the culture that we have today thanks to Flavio the grandson of the august emperor since he was a child. He was a genius in all the fields he touched, it proved to be a jewel from the military to the civil, the day of your wedding... "
The day before the invasion of the Americas Flavio prepared his army to launch into the unknown, the fleet will be divided into 3 the first batch will be army and supernatural beings commanded by Flavio and Hellena
The second will be the civil population who will lead them will be my stepfather and my mother, finally the fleet of animals will be commanded by Idril and the elves leaders because they are perfect to keep them calm on the journey each fleet will leave with 2 months of separation to give time to Flavio to conquer To the Olmec people who live in the region of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec
With this in mind, Flavio pointed his hand towards the Atlantic and said "It is time to return my land, this time I will take care of changing the destiny with my own hands , just wait and see ... "
