	Cortés organized a group of [[Guards\|soldiers]] and scholars, and led them himself as they sailed for Mexico.

			Unbeknownst to Cortés, this expedition was infiltrated an [[Assassins\|Assassin]] named [[Giovanni Borgia]], who posed as a scholar and soldier named Botello and was sent to search for First Civilization artifacts in the New World.

	Cortés eventually grew close to a Nahua [[Slavery\|slave]] named [[La Malinche\|Malinalli]], who spoke many of the major regional languages, such as the Aztecs' Nahuatl. She communicated for them, and though she understood Spanish, she could not speak it, leaving the Spaniard to only assume what she was saying.<ref name="PL" />		Cortés eventually grew close to a Nahua [[Slavery\|slave]] named [[La Malinche\|Malinalli]], who spoke many of the major regional languages, such as the Aztecs' Nahuatl.
