In 1932, a young explorer named Alexandre Valembois, accompanied by his native companion Antonio Álvarez, sought to establish his reputation by delving into the enigmatic Amerzone region. During their journey, they formed a bond with the local inhabitants and witnessed a peculiar ritual centered around a colossal egg belonging to the legendary white birds. In a moment of betrayal, Alexandre, eager to validate the existence of these birds, deceived the natives and absconded with the enigmatic egg. Unfortunately, upon his return to France, his accounts and journals detailing the Amerzone were met with skepticism.
