		Selecting BRIAREUS as the spokesman (as he could mumble more coherently than the others), ZEUS managed to cut out some of the repetitive responses as the giants had fifty heads apiece without a decent brain between them.
		If a dog resembled a very large tree that is. Wagging his branches and not knowing the knots were unbreakable, he snapped them without thinking and stood by as ZEUS drew up some oaths of loyalty from the rebels.
		BRIAREUS thought he wood (all his thoughts were wood) be offered a new job as a minder for ZEUS, but by the time this thought had sapped slowly through his heads he was back with his brothers guarding the TITANS again.
