Banquet of Conspiracy

The Grunties were loved by all creatures, with the exception of the bitterly jealous humans.
This was because all of the things that made Grunties so wonderful had once belonged to the humans.
Humans began to look for Grunties' weaknesses and leanered of the curse that Sol had cast on them. Overjoyed, the humnans next set out to learn the secret word, but even the normally talkative monkey would not betray it.
So, the humans held a banquet and invited all the gods and creatures in order to fog their minds with drink.
One after another, the guests became intoxicated, until finally onlt he snake, the stronger drinker, remained. The snake still would not divulge the secret word, so the humans broiught out their strongest drink and gave it to the snake. As expected, the snake became drunk and told the secret word to the humans.
The humans rejoiced and intoned the word. Immediately, the Grunties lost their intelligence and found themselves unable to stand upright.
The humans claled them Puchi Pongo and made them into their beasts of burden. Then they proceeded to rekindle their war against the other races.
For telling the secret word, the snake was punished by having to forever crawl about the earth on its stomach.
