After all the heavy rain, a massive mudslide ensued, burying the entire city. Accompanied by several of her attendants, "La Sin Ventura" climbed to the top of the palace for refuge, but died. It is said that no one tried to help her because they had concluded that the disaster was her punishment for having named herself Governor. With the entire valley buried and with it "La Sin Ventura" and nostalgia of her story, the capital was moved to the Valley of Panchoy, what is today Antigua. The romance and melancholy of this story has become an integral part of La Antigua Guatemala's history. A city that was founded by "La Sin Ventura's" story is destined to bring nostalgic memories to all who walk upon its soil.
