“Using the temple of Tzinacan, the bat god, as a lair, Yohualli trains with his mentor and assistant, Acatzin, developing equipment and weaponry to confront the Spaniard invasion, protect Moctezuma’s temple, and avenge his father’s death.”

Horacio Garcia Rojas (“Narcos: Mexico”) is voicing Yohualli Coatl.
