Early History

Born to a rich woman, Tasio grew up a talented young man, becoming a student of
philosophy. However, as he demonstrated a great amount of skill, his pious mother
asked him to either become a priest or abandon his studies. Having fallen in love with a
woman, Tasio chose the latter option and married.
In less than a year, both Tasio's mother and his wife died; in response, he immersed
himself in his studies, purchasing books and neglecting his estate until he became poor.
For this, he was dismissed as a lunatic by the townspeople of San Diego. [1] He also, at
some point, gained the acquaintance of his neighbor Sisaand her two
sons Basilio and Crispin.[2]
Advice of the Scholar
At some point, he began putting his writings in an encoded language for future
generations to discover, not wanting the present one to find it and persecute him for
them.[3] On All Saints' Day, 1881, Tasio visited the cemetery to search for his dead wife's
skull, to no avail.
