A lizard wakes up in a sandcastle convinced she is a horrible monster, but she sees a male lizard just like her; they fall in love and have many red-eyed children. Since there are so many, no one dares mess with them. Those red-eyed lizards will meet others with black eyes, fall in love, and no one will be able to tell them apart.
