So when the emperor find out and forbade their wedding, they disobeyed and ran away, which cost them a death sentence.

The mother, praying to the god Viracocha, got his mercy and saved them by turn them into a couple of cute and fluffy llamas. This leyend was probably part of the inspiration for the Disney movie and series "The Emperor's New Goove".
