Time has only sharpened their combined cunning, and they eagerly await a chance to strike back. Though the Monkey Twins, as they are now called, came to be worshipped as Gods of Art and Music, the animosity they hold for the Hero Twins remains. However, upon doing so, they were mysteriously and humiliatingly transformed into monkeys. Pleased with their magic thus far, The Hero Twins encouraged Hun Batz and Hun Chouen to use their belts like tails in order to escape the terrible height. Yet, the higher they climbed, the taller the tree grew, until they could not get back down. Frustrated with these antics, the Hero Twins kicked the ball into a tree, knowing Hun Batz and his brother considered themselves excellent climbers and would go after it. Eventually, the original twins resorted to foul tricks, aggressive tactics, and out-right cheating. The more they played ball together, the more Hun Batz and his brother were defeated. A jealous rivalry formed between the two sets of twins. And they were extremely gifted at playing Pitz. The Hero Twins were everything the original twins were not, strong, athletic, and clever. Instead his new offspring, half-brothers to Hun Batz and Hun Chauen, appeared. Summoned to the underworld, their father, Hun Hunapu never returned. Artists and musicians, everything they created was beautiful and enchanting, but they lacked their father's talent for the ball game, Pitz. Hun Batz and his twin brother Hun Chouen, led a contented life with their grandmother. A grudge, like any wound, left untended will fester.
