"The legend tells that Tau, the evil spirit, fell in love with a princess from the Guarani tribe, a beautiful woman named Kerana, daughter of Marangatu. It‘s said that Tau transformed himself into human form for seven days, to conquer her, the myth doesn’t mention how Kerana felt about it, but fact is that the counterpart of Tau, the good spirit, called Angatupyry, decided to intervene.
The two entities fought for seven days and seven nights, until Tau was defeated. Tau was exiled after the event, but after some time, Tau freed himself, going in search of Kerana. The couple infuriated the gods, causing the beautiful girl, and the evil spirit, to be cursed. The curse fell on the seven sons of the couple, who were born with monstrous forms, giving rise to the famous Seven Legendary Monsters of Guarani Mythology."
