Montezuma II initially greeted Hernán Cortés with great reverence, believing him to be a deity or a representative of the gods due to the timing of Cortés's arrival and the prophecies of the returning god Quetzalcoatl. He welcomed Cortés to Tenochtitlán with gifts and hospitality, hoping to establish a cordial relationship. However, this gesture ultimately led to the downfall of the Aztec Empire, as Cortés and his men exploited this trust to seize power.
