Description:A folk tale about Rat and Rabbit who had been friends for a long time. When Rat died Rabbit told the village people that when they both used to belong to a cult and only Rabbit could bury Rat. The villagers accepted this and Rabbit went to bury him but kept long at the grave. Fly was asked to go and find out what was going on. When Fly arrived at the grave Rabbit caught him and removed his tongue. Fly returned to the mourners unable to talk and was mumbling and the people were scared and ran away.
