Resolved Question: Could someone translate this into Spanish?
Over the next two centuries, the Spanish slowly conquered the Aztecs and claimed the land as Spain’s. Following Cordoba’s exploration, early Conquistador Hernan Cortes entered Mexico in 1519 and took over a coastal village which he renamed “Puerto de la Villa Rica de la Vera Cruz,” which later became Veracruz, one of the 31 states that make up Mexico today. In 1521, Cortes conquered Tenochtitlan, a major Aztec city-state near Lake Texcoco.

Here we go:1st one-
“Look-up there!” cried an elderly woman, dropping a pile of nets full of fish from the sea.
John started, and struggled to see what everyone in the crowded street had suddenly begun staring at. Blocked by the mass of people gathering to see the spectacle, John’s eyes roved around the village. All he could see were the great trees of the Sharrwoods, standing dead-still as if awaiting something. Looking back at the stricken face of the lady, he craned his neck even further upwards, his eyes probing the darkening sky.
A man at the fringe of the crowd suddenly cried out, dropping the bundles of leather from his listless arms and ran, his feet thundering away from what the old woman was pointing at.
The crowd was growing now, and John was growing steadily more filled with dread. He was still unable to see what everyone was looking at, blocked by the mass of bodies in front of him. Looking around for a clear place from which to see, he saw a woman collapse upon the ground. He hurried to the spot, looked up, and froze.
In profound silence, an enormous mass of pulsing red was rapidly rising in the sky, enshrouded in specks of black that sped in all directions. A deepening cloud of billowing black and red expanded above the mass, boiling and speeding upwards. The stars disappeared, as the unnatural cloud loomed over them. It began to glow a deep orange, and light flooded the village.
“RUN!” yelled someone nearby. But no-one moved.
The mountain visibly shuddered. Then, a mass of red began flowing from its summit. This flowing red mass swallowed everything in its path, destroying entire forests in seconds. Ahead of the liquid fire was a shimmer in the air, like a ripple upon a lake, speeding along the ground and heading straight for the village.
Just then, a wall of air crashed upon John, along with a roar from the very bowels of the Earth. The wall of sound enveloped the village, filling it with sounds of grating anger and roaring pain, and all hell broke loose.
John tore his eyes from the mountain, and the glowing shadowed sky. Turning from it, he ran. He had to get away, anywhere. People scattered in all directions, avoiding debris from collapsing buildings and the hooves of panic stricken livestock. He made for the path that would lead him home, to his father… and to certain doom. Looking back at the advancing wall of flames, he knew that his house’s sturdy walls would offer no protection from such a force. He must find shelter, from the flames and from the dark masses falling from the glowing sky.
A blast of heat suddenly pummeled him in a wild wind, so strong he fell to the quaking ground. He covered his face, feeling his eyes burn, blocking out the sight of people tearing at the ground, and lost children crying into the sodden earth. Lifting his head, he watched as a house nearest to the mountain burst into flames, a huge fireball crashing through the roof. A thick cloud of smoke rushed forwards, the sky claiming the land.
John heaved himself up and ran again, his eyes searing and lungs burning. His feet struggled to keep pace on the restless earth. Everything shook, houses collapsing; the air itself shuddered. Everything but the trees. The great trees of the Sharrwoods did not move at all, untouched by the chaos claiming the village. It was as if the trees did not share the same earth as the village did with the mountain, unaffected and everlasting.
John watched as a plummeting rock, glowing a deep red, impacted upon one of the great trees bordering the village. It simply vanished, as dust rained upon the forest floor. No, the rock had definitely hit the tree. Another rock fell-nothing happened. The trees were dead-still, as if the whole forest were bracing itself.
John suddenly noticed the trees shimmering. Was this the heat, twisting his vision? No, John somehow knew it was emanating from the trees themselves. The Sharrwoods were safe from the chaos ripping the village.
Revived from his trance, John broke into a run towards those trees that had always called to him. Those trees that were still and restless, safe and yet foreboding. Despite himself, he stopped just before the border between the trees and the village.
A hand gripped John’s arm, causing him to whirl around- his father!
“No! John don’t go in there! Come with us-head for the sea. We’ll be safe from the fire there!” yelled his father, choking on his words.
“Look dad- the trees are the shelter we need-they cannot be touched by fire. Follow me!” cried John, above the thundering land and sky.
And with that, John broke free and ran into the Sharrwoods, as many had done before, many who had never been seen again. As John stepped over the border
