Whispering Wind (Maryam Camino): Stands in front of the goat, closes eyes in a silent prayer and a shiver runs through her body
Whispering Wind (Maryam Camino): Takes a knife and holds the goats head firmly in one hand and in a decisive move, cuts the goats throat while saying, “Let the blood to flow freely onto the ground as a symbol of our offering to the gods.”
Whispering Wind (Maryam Camino): looks at the blood and says with gratitude, “May this blood satiate the soil of this jungle. We spill the blood to appease the evil spirits, so we can spread it around the jungle, as a symbol of protection and blessing.”

ATAN ‘IHΞYU (Aishe Aabye): /me takes the liver “let’s sacrifice the liver, the symbol of the spark of life” raises it in the air, offering it to the fire.
ATAN ‘IHΞYU (Aishe Aabye): /me starts praying, “O great gods of the jungle, we offer you this goat liver in humble appreciation of your benevolence. We thank you for all that you have given us and for your guidance.”
ATAN ‘IHΞYU (Aishe Aabye): “We ask for your blessings and protection for our tribe. May we continue to be prosperous, healthy, and safe. Guide us with your wisdom and provide us with the sustenance we need to thrive.”

Belleniko Resident: Oh Thou Who Art
 The creepiest, crawliest, chaotic creature that ever crept from a crypt;
Belleniko Resident: Oh Thou Who Art
 The terrifying, tenacious, turbulent, tumescent and tactless tumbler of temples;
Belleniko Resident: Oh Thou Who Art
 The horrifying, hideous, heart-freezing head-honcho of hangover hallucinations;
Belleniko Resident: Oh Thou Who Art
 The long-waiting, legendary, lethally lubricious liquescent lawgiver of laxative liturgy;
 Your servant call upon you!
Belleniko Resident: Oh Great Goat 
 Let me have a key from these bowels to foretell to this tribe any misfortune or nefariousness that will have to be faced this year
Belleniko Resident: She leans over the guts and starts to recognise a pattern 
 “Thank you Great Goat, with your blessing I can now interpret the loops of these intestines which reveal to me some certainties for this calendar year”

Belleniko Resident: shouts: here are the predictions
Belleniko Resident: – even during this year James will continue to say a lot of crap!
Belleniko Resident: – Belleniko will continue to use huge vegetables for sexual satisfaction as no one will dare fu…. her… especially after today’s performance!
Belleniko Resident: – In the fourth quarter of the year Regor will compare his male member with all the males of the tribe, discovering that he has the longest one of all
Belleniko Resident: – In June, Catten will be distracted again by the Lead Shaman’s Boobies and will fall into the river much to the delight of the crocodiles
Belleniko Resident: – next December Bubba will be a year older…  but how many do he have???
Belleniko Resident: – Naux will manage during an April Xoco Friday Party to pick the lock of Khaing’s loincloth, who will finally be pushed to show to the jubilant world her cute butterfly!
Belleniko Resident: – After the holidays, Maccus will recover from the shock of seeing his beloved goat killed by those wretched Tapis and will finally come out and mate with a black ram.
Belleniko Resident: Suddenly she rolls her eyes and lets out a heart-wrenching scream and breaks the connection with the Great Goat, collapsing into the bowels.
