He keeps saying that he's working on some experiment with this thing called curare, but that doesn't sound like yage to you. After you get into Puyo, you find his place and meet him, and the guy seems suspicious. Hermione tells you about some research that she did about this old man Cotter that lives there. You pay an Ecuadorian kid $5 to get you into the city. Your flight lands in Shell, the center of Amazonian colonialism, at the airport 10 kilometers northwest of Puyo. Burroughs, Ginsberg, and Terence McKenna have used before, and guess what, motherfucker? They are famous and you are next.Īfter forging passports and airline tickets for you, Ron, and Hermione, you take a flight to Puyo, capital of the province of Pastaza in Ecuador.

It's actually a colloquial name for Banisteriopsis caapi, also known as ayahuasca, or 'the vine of souls and death.'" "William Burroughs said that yage 'may be the ultimate fix,' and he knew his shit. "Yo, I think I'm busting out of here," you say. Ron and Hermione awake from their fevered poppy dreams on the couch. "HOLY SHIT," you scream, "Is anyone else getting this?' "Now your search has led you to another search: the attainment of the sacrament of yage." "You have searched far and wide," the chiliagon says.

I'm not sure if this is true for the final published version, but the proofs we received have a huge amount of space at the bottom of each page.
