In the early 10th century there was a boy named ʻAhoʻeitu that wanted to know his father so he climbed way up the Toa tree to find him . his father was the Tangaloa known as God. He was on a beach searching around looking for him And finally he found him under a coconut tree. After awhile his father told him to meet his Brothers. then he found his brothers and told them that he was the youngest and he was happy to find them.The Brothers were confused and thought it was a stranger coming to play so he let him come and join in with them so then they killed ʻAhoʻeitu and ate him up. after a while they fell asleep. The father came so angry and told them to wake up they all got frightend with fear So then he growled them that he know what they did to their bother so the the brother had to get a kumete and put coconut leaves and vomited inside and put a ngatu on top the left it there. After an hour ʻAhoʻeitu came back to life and was sent back to earth. And he became the king . The end
