Once upon a time an ancient tribe upon an island filled with rich plants and fish, until they were struck with an unforgiving plague of misfortune which lead the tribe to starvation, a brave and malnourished man stood up on his toes, with every little strength he had, he called upon the gods, and they answered baring but a single coconut, the milk quenched the land and sea into a tropical island once more.
