The Hawaiian Romance of Laieikawai — Chronicle
Ordered by chapter. The romance counts time in nights, months and years of living — “About the eighth year of their living as man and wife”, “in four months and ten days they reached Kealohilani”, “They had lived perhaps five years under the marriage contract” — and once a month and a night (“in February, on the night of the seventeenth, the night of Kulu”); none of these can be turned into a calendar year, so no event is dated: no anchor, no chronology; a date is never inferred. Time expressions are copied onto the events as written. Every event links back to one sentence of the original.

At the time when Kahauokapaka took Malaekahana to wife, after their union, during those moments of bliss when they had just parted from the first embrace, Kahauokapaka declared his vow to his wife, and this was the vow:

Chapter I · Part 2
Malaekahana Kahauokapaka Laieikawai Laielohelohe
While they were gone the child was born, a girl, and she was given to Waka, and they named her Laieikawai. As they were attending to the first child, a second was born, also a girl, and they named her Laielohelohe.
Chapter I · Part 2 · 📍 [[Waiapuka]]
Waka took Laieikawai where Kapukaihaoa had directed, and there she kept Laieikawai hidden until she was come to maturity.

Now, Kapukaihaoa took Laielohelohe to the uplands of Wahiawa, to the place called Kukaniloko.
Chapter I · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kalalea]] · 20 days
Just at this time Hulumaniani was making a tour of Kauai in his character as the great seer of Kauai, and when he reached the summit of Kalalea he beheld the rainbow arching over Oahu; there he remained 20 days in order to be sure of the nature of the sign which he saw. By that time the seer saw clearly that it was the sign of a great chief--this rainbow arch and the two ends of a rainbow encircled in dark clouds.
Chapter I · Part 2 · 📍 [[Wailua]]
When Hulumaniani met Poloula he begged of him a canoe to go to Oahu. Then the canoe and men were given to him.
Chapter II · Part 1 · 📍 [[Malelewaa]] · On the day when the seer went to Waikolu, the same night
As Laieikawai was speaking to her grandmother, the same vision came to Waka. Then they both arose at dawn and went as they had both been directed by Kapukaihaoa in a vision.
Chapter II · Part 1 · 📍 [[Keawanui]] · at dawn
They left the place, went to Keawanui, to the place called Kaleloa, and there they met a man who was getting his canoe ready to sail for Lanai.
Chapter II · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kaleloa]]
And as the man spoke this word, "a mate to paddle the canoe," Laieikawai drew aside the veil that covered her face because of her grandmother's wish completely to conceal her grandchild from being seen by anyone as they went on their way to Paliuli; but her grandchild thought otherwise.
Chapter II · Part 2
At this answer of Waka to the paddler's entreaties, Laieikawai revealed herself fully, for she heard Waka say that she wished to conceal herself, when she had not wanted to at all.
Chapter III · Part 1 · 📍 [[Maunalei]] · At dawn
At dawn they found a canoe sailing to Lanai, got on board, and went and lived for some time at Maunalei.
Chapter III · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kauwiki]] · That night
That night, in his sleep, his god came to him in a vision and said: "I have seen the pains and the patience with which you have striven to find Waka's grandchild, thinking to gain honor through her grandchild. Your prayers have moved me to show you that Laieikawai dwells between Puna and Hilo in the midst of the forest, in a house made of the yellow feathers of the oo bird; therefore, to-morrow, rise and go."
Chapter III · Part 2
The command was carried out. Laieikawai dwelt at Paliuli until she was grown to maidenhood.
Chapter III · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kauai]]
Kauakahialii Kailiokalauokekoa
When Kauakahialii and Kailiokalauokekoa returned to Kauai after their meeting with the "beauty of Paliuli" there were gathered together the high chiefs, the low chiefs, and the country aristocracy as well, to see the strangers who came with Kailiokalauokekoa's party.
Chapter III · Part 2
Kauakahialii Kailiokalauokekoa
After the wailing the chiefs asked Kauakahialii, "How did your journey go after your marriage with Kailiokalauokekoa?"
Chapter III · Part 2 · at the first streak of light
At midnight rang the note of the elepaio; at dawn rang the note of the apapane; and at the first streak of light rang the note of the iiwipolena; as soon as it sounded there fell the shadow of a figure at the door of the house. Behold! the room was thick with mist, and when it passed away she lay resting on the wings of birds in all her beauty.
Chapter IV · Part 1 · Next day, at midday
Next day, at midday, the chief slept and Laieikawai came to Aiwohikupua in a dream and he saw her in the dream as Kauakahialii had described her.
Chapter IV · Part 1 · After this
It was only after he quit awa drinking that he told anyone how Laieikawai had come to him in the dream and why he had drunk the awa, and also why he had laid the command upon them not to talk while he slept.
Chapter IV · Part 1 · 📍 [[Hawaii]] · After talking over all these things
After talking over all these things, then the chief fully decided to go to Hawaii to see Laieikawai. At this time they began to talk about getting Laieikawai for a wife.
Chapter IV · Part 1 · in the early morning at the rising of the canoe-steering star
And in the early morning at the rising of the canoe-steering star the chief went on board with his counsellor and his sixteen paddlers and two steersmen, twenty of them altogether in the double canoe, and set sail.
Chapter IV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Maui]]
After this little parley, they went out surf riding and as they rode, behold! the princess conceived a passion for Aiwohikupua, and many others took a violent liking to the chief.
Chapter IV · Part 2
During the talk, Aiwohikupua gave to the princess this counsel. "Although I belong to you, and this is well, yet let us not at once become lovers, not until I return from my journey about Hawaii; for I vowed before sailing hither to know no woman until I had made the circuit of Hawaii; after that I will do what you please as we have agreed.
Chapter IV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Maui]]
Now, this was not Aiwohikupua's real intention. After laying his commands upon Hinaikamalama, they left Maui and went to Kapakai at Kohala.
Chapter IV · Part 2
Then Aiwohikupua turned and gave the man at his back a push, and he fell down dead.
Chapter V
As the blow missed, Aiwohikupua instantly sent his blow, struck right on the chest and pierced to his back; then Aiwohikupua lifted the man on his arm and swung him to and fro before the crowd, and threw him outside the field, and Aiwohikupua overcame Cold-nose, and all who looked on shouted.
Chapter V
As the host were crowding about the dead body of their champion and wailing, Aiwohikupua came and cut off Cold-nose's head with the man's own war club and threw it contemptuously to his followers; thus was his prayer fulfilled.
Chapter V
Then Haunaka seized Aiwohikupua's hand and welcomed him, and the end of it was they made friends and the players mixed with the crowd, and they left the place; Aiwohikupua's party went with their friends and boarded the canoes, and went on and landed at Laupahoehoe.
Chapter VI · on the evening before he arrived
the prophet foresaw it all on the evening before he arrived
Chapter VI · 📍 [[Laupahoehoe]]
Instantly the seer ran and clasped the chief's feet and climbed upward to his neck and wept, and Aiwohikupua hugged his servant's shoulders and wailed out his virtues.
Chapter VI · 📍 [[Laupahoehoe]] · at daybreak
The chief stayed with the seer that night until at daybreak they made ready the canoe and sailed.
Chapter VII · 📍 [[Kohala]] · on the day when Aiwohikupua's party left
They reached Kohala, and on the day when Aiwohikupua's party left, Poliahu took her garment of snow and gave it to Aiwohikupua, saying, "Here is my snow mantle, the mantle my parents strictly forbade my giving to anyone else; it was to be for myself alone; but as we are betrothed, you to me and I to you, therefore I give away this mantle until the day when you remember our vows, then you must seek me, and you will find me above on the White Mountain; show it to me there, then we shall be united."
Chapter VIII · 📍 [[Hana]]
It is not to end our vow--that still holds; but the time has not come for its fulfillment.
Chapter VIII · 📍 [[Hawaii]]
To Hawaii I disappeared to fetch Laieikawai for my wife, after hearing Kauakahialii's story the day when his party returned here.
Chapter VIII · 📍 [[Kauai]] · That night, at the approach of day
Aiwohikupua Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea Mailelaulii Mailepakaha Kahalaomapuana
That night, at the approach of day, they left Kauai, came to Puuloa, and there rested at Hanauma;
Chapter VIII · one month
Then was revealed to Poliahu the knowledge of Aiwohikupua's doings; through her supernatural power she saw it all;
Chapter IX · in the middle of the night
That is no strange fragrance, it is Mailekaluhea, the sweet-smelling sister of Aiwohikupua, who has come to make you his wife to marry him. LAIEIKAWAI: "Bah! I will not marry him!"
Chapter IX · in the middle of the night
WAKA: "That is no strange fragrance; it is Mailelaulii, one of the sweet-smelling sisters of Aiwohikupua, who has come to get you for his wife; he is the husband, the husband for you to marry." LAIEIKAWAI: "Bah! I will not marry him!"
Chapter IX
WAKA: "That is no strange fragrance; it is Mailepakaha, the sweet-smelling sister of Aiwohikupua, who has come to get you for a wife to marry him." LAIEIKAWAI: "Bah! I will not marry him! No matter who comes I will not sleep with him. Do not force Aiwohikupua on me again."
Chapter IX · pretty near dawn
Aiwohikupua Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea Mailelaulii Mailepakaha Kahalaomapuana
Then Aiwohikupua said to his sisters, "You are to stay here; my cherished hope has failed in bringing you here; the forest is your dwelling hereafter." It was then pretty near dawn.
Chapter IX
Aiwohikupua called to his sister, "You shall come with me; your older sisters must stay here." "I will not go," answered the youngest sister, "unless we all go together, only then will I go home."
Chapter X

When Aiwohikupua and his companion had departed, the sisters conferred together and agreed to follow him, thinking he could be pacified.
Chapter X · 📍 [[Keaau]]
Aiwohikupua Kahalaomapuana Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea Mailelaulii Mailepakaha
While Mailekaluhea was singing not once did their brother compassionately look toward them, and the canoe having departed, the sisters sat conferring, then one of them, Kahalaomapuana, the youngest, began to speak.
Chapter X
But the youngest would not consent; then they drew lots by pulling the flower stems of grass; the one who pulled the longest, she was the one to plead with the brother; now when they drew, the lot fell to Kahalaomapuana.
Chapter X · 📍 [[Honolii]] · that night
When, his youngest sister raised this lamentation to Aiwohikupua, then the brother's heart glowed with love and longing for his sister. And because of his great love for his little sister, he took her in his arms, set her on his lap, and wept.
Chapter X
Aiwohikupua Kahalaomapuana Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea Mailelaulii Mailepakaha
When Kahalaomapuana was in her brother's lap, Aiwohikupua ordered the canoemen to paddle with all their might; then the other sisters were left far behind and the canoe went ahead.
Chapter X
And because of Aiwohikupua's stubbornness in refusing to let his sister go, then Kahalaomapuana jumped from the canoe into the sea.
Chapter XI · During this very last song of Kahalaomapuana's
During this very last song of Kahalaomapuana's, Aiwohikupua's heart filled with love, and he called out for the canoe to back up, but Kahalaomapuana had been left far behind, so swiftly were the men paddling, and by the time the canoe had turned about to pick her up she was not to be found.
Chapter XI · While they were still mourning Kahalaomapuana
Kahalaomapuana Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea

Kahalaomapuana Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea
After their council they left Honolii and returned to the uplands of Paliuli, to a place near Laieikawai's house, and lived there inside of hollow trees.
Chapter XI · On the fifth night
At these words of the princess, the nurse went and came to the place where the sisters were and they saw her, and she said, "I am a messenger sent hither by my chief to fetch whichever one of you I want to take; so I take the smallest of you to go and visit my princess as she has commanded."
Chapter XI
Kahalaomapuana took her ti leaf trumpet from behind her ear, and played before the princess; then Laieikawai was delighted. This was the first time the princess had seen this kind of instrument.
Chapter XII
And we journeyed hither with our brother, and because we failed to gain for him his wish, therefore he has abandoned us and has gone back with his favorite companion, and we live here in distress.
Chapter XII
Said Laieikawai to Kahalapmapuana, "Let us two be friends, and you shall live here in my house and become my favorite, and your work will be to amuse me."
Chapter XII
Then, through the supernatural power of her grandmother, Waka, the matter was quickly dispatched, the house was made ready.
Chapter XII
And at this interview with the princess she promised them her protection, as follows: "I have heard from your younger sister that you are all of the same parentage and the same blood; therefore I shall treat you all as one blood with me, and we shall protect each other. Whatever one says, the others shall do. Whatever trouble comes to one, the others shall share;
Chapter XII
Said Laieikawai, "I consent to your agreement, and yours shall be the guardianship over all the land of Paliuli."
Chapter XIII · At the time when Kahalaomapuana leaped from the canoe
The canoe turned back to recover Kahalaomapuana, but the party did not find her; then Aiwohikupua abandoned his young sister and sailed straight for Kauai.
Chapter XIII · 📍 [[Kauai]] · A few days afterwards
They returned to Kauai. A few days afterwards Aiwohikupua, the chief, wished to make a feast for the chiefs and for all his friends on Kauai.
Chapter XIII · While under the influence of the awa
While under the influence of the awa, Aiwohikupua turned right around upon Kauakahialii, who was sitting near, and said: "O Kauakahialii, when you were talking to us about Laieikawai, straightway there entered into me desire after that woman; then sleepless were my nights with the wish, to see her; so I sailed and came to Hawaii, two of us went up, until at daylight we reached the uplands of Paliuli; when I went to see the chief's house, it was very beautiful, I was ashamed; therefore I returned here.
Chapter XIII
Said Aiwohikupua, "Hauailiki, I wish you would go to Hawaii; if you get Laieikawai, you are a lucky fellow, and I will send men with you and a double canoe; and should you lose in this journey then your lands become mine, and if you return with Laieikawai then all my lands are yours."
Chapter XIII · that very night
After Aiwohikupua had finished speaking, that very night, Hauailiki boarded the double canoe and set sail, but many days passed on the journey.
Chapter XIII · 📍 [[Keaau]] · Four days
Four days Laieikawai came to Keaau after Hauailiki's entering the harbor; and four days Hauailiki showed himself off before Laieikawai, and she took no notice at all of him.
Chapter XIV · Part 1
And at the signal of the princess of Paliuli he lay upon the breaker and landed right where Laieikawai and her companions were sitting; then Laieikawai threw a lehua wreath around Hauailiki's neck, as she always did for those who showed skill in surf riding.
Chapter XIV · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kauai]]
This was the last time that Laieikawai's party came to Keaau while Hauailiki was there; after Hauailiki's return to Kauai, then Laieikawai came again to Keaau.
Chapter XIV · Part 1 · In the afternoon, after dinner,
But because they urged her with such persuasive words, she did consent.
Chapter XIV · Part 1
But to Mailekaluhea's command they answered so craftily with flattering words that they were allowed to pass.
Chapter XIV · Part 1
And because of their great craft in persuasion, the two were allowed to pass Mailelaulii's front.
Chapter XIV · Part 1
When they came before Mailepakaha this guardian was not at all pleased at their having been let slip by the first guards, but so crafty was their speech that they were allowed to pass.
Chapter XIV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Keaau]] · in the early morning
At these terrible words of Kahalaomapuana, Hauailiki's courage entirely left him; he arose and ran swiftly until he reached Keaau in the early morning.
Chapter XIV · Part 2 · four nights and four days
Hauailiki slept again; again he had the dream as at first; four nights and four days the dream was repeated to Hauailiki, and his mind was troubled.
Chapter XIV · Part 2 · On the fifth night after the dream had come to Hauailiki so repeatedly, after dark
On the fifth night after the dream had come to Hauailiki so repeatedly, after dark, he arose and ascended to the uplands of Paliuli without his comrade's knowledge.

Chapter XIV · Part 2 · while I slept
while I slept we two met together in a dream and we were united, and many days and nights the same dream came;
Chapter XIV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Keaau]] · with the dawn
When Hauailiki saw that he had no further chance to win Laieikawai, then he made the canoe ready to go back to Kauai, and with the dawn left Keaau and sailed thither.
Chapter XIV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Wailua]]
When Hauailiki landed and told Aiwohikupua the story of his journey and how his sisters had become the princess's guardians, then Aiwohikupua rejoiced.
Chapter XIV · Part 2 · While Hauailiki was telling how Aiwohikupua's sisters had become guardians to Laieikawai
While Hauailiki was telling how Aiwohikupua's sisters had become guardians to Laieikawai, then Aiwohikupua conceived afresh the hope of sailing to Hawaii to get Laieikawai, as he had before desired.
Chapter XV · 📍 [[Wailua]]
Now, while all the chiefs were gathered at Wailua, then Aiwohikupua stood up and declared his intention in presence of the chiefs: "Where are you! I shall go again to Hawaii, I shall not fail of my desire; for my sisters are now guardians of her on whom I have set my heart."
Chapter XV · When everything was ready for such a journey
When everything was ready for such a journey they set out.
Chapter XV · 📍 [[Kohala]] · for the first time
When they came to Kohala, for the first time the Kohala people recognized Aiwohikupua, a magician renowned all over the islands.
Chapter XV · Just as they reached there
Laieikawai Waka Kahalaomapuana Kihanuilulumoku Mailehaiwale
They left Kohala and went to Keaau. Just as they reached there, Laieikawai and the sisters of Aiwohikupua returned to Paliuli.
Chapter XV · 📍 [[Keaau]] · on the day when Aiwohikupua's party arrived
When Laieikawai and her companions returned, on the day when Aiwohikupua's party arrived, their grandmother had already foreseen Aiwohikupua's arrival at Keaau.
Chapter XV
Kahalaomapuana Kihanuilulumoku
When the princess's head guard heard the grandmother's words, then Kahalaomapuana immediately ordered Kihanuilulumoku, their god, to come near the home of the chief and prepare for battle.
Chapter XV · At dawn that night
At dawn that night arrived Aiwohikupua with his counsellor. When they saw the taboo sign--the hollow post covered with white tapa--then they knew that the road to the princess's dwelling was taboo. But Aiwohikupua would not believe it taboo because of having heard that his sisters had the guardian power.
Chapter XV
They left the sign, went a little way and met Mailehaiwale; overjoyed was Aiwohikupua to see his sister. At that instant Mailehaiwale cried, "Back, you two, this place is taboo."
Chapter XV · Then
Then Mailehaiwale sent one of her guardian birds to Kahalaomapuana; in less than no time the four met at the place guarded by Mailekaluhea, where they expected to meet Aiwohikupua.
Chapter XVI · That very day
That very day Waka foresaw what Aiwohikupua's intention was. So Waka went and met Kahalaomapuana, the princess's commander in chief, and said: "Kahalaomapuana, I have seen what your brother intends to do. He is preparing ten strong men to come up here and destroy you, for your brother is wrathful because you drove him away this morning; so let us be ready in the name of our god."
Chapter XVI
Kahalaomapuana Kihanuilulumoku
Then she sent for Kihanuilulumoku, the great lizard of Paliuli, their god. And the lizard came and she commanded him: "O our god, Kihanuilulumoku, see to this lawless one, this mischief-maker, this rogue of the sea; if they send a force here, slaughter them all, let no messenger escape, keep on until the last one is taken, and beware of Kalahumoku, Aiwohikupua's great strong dog; if you blunder, there is an end of us, we shall not escape; exert your strength, all your godlike might over Aiwohikupua. Amen, it is finished, flown away." This was Kahalaomapuana's charge to their god.
Chapter XVI · That night
At the first dawn they approached Paliuli. Then they heard the humming of the wind in the thicket from the tongue of that great lizard, Kihanuilulumoku, coming for them, but they did not see the creature, so they went on; soon they saw the upper jaw of the lizard hanging right over them; they were just between the lizard's jaws; then the assistant counsellor leaped quickly back, could not make the distance; it snapped them up; not a messenger was left.
Chapter XVI · Again
Again the chief waited; they came not back. The chief again sent a band of forty; all were killed. So it went on until eight times forty warriors had disappeared.
Chapter XVI · Not long after they had left
Snipe Turnstone Kihanuilulumoku
They knew then this must be the lizard; they flew in their bird bodies. They flew high and looked about. There right above them was the upper jaw shutting down upon them, and only by quickness of flight in their bird bodies did they escape.
Chapter XVII
Instantly the dog showed his teeth at the lizard, and the fight began; then the lizard was victor over Kalahumoku and the dog just escaped without ears or tail.
Chapter XVII · 📍 [[Kauai]]
So Aiwohikupua resolved to depart, since they were vanquished. They departed and came to Kauai and told the story of the journey and of the victory of the lizard over them.
Chapter XVII · 📍 [[Kauai]]
Having returned to Kauai without Laieikawai, Aiwohikupua gave up thinking about Laieikawai and resolved to carry out the commands of Poliahu.
Chapter XVII · 📍 [[Kauai]]
And he obtained favor in the presence of his god, and was released from his sinful vow "not to take any woman of these islands to wife," as has been shown in the former chapters of this story.
Chapter XVII · 📍 [[Hana]]
In their bird bodies they flew swiftly to Hinaikamalama's home at Hana and came and asked the people of the place, "Where is the woman who is betrothed to the chief of Kauai?"
Chapter XVII · 📍 [[Hana]] · in February, on the night of the seventeenth
You have three months to prepare for the marriage, and in February, on the night of the seventeenth, the night of Kulu, he will come to meet you, according to the oath between you.
Chapter XVII
Now for this mistake of the messengers the rage of Aiwohikupua was stirred against his messengers, and they ceased to be among his favorites.
Chapter XVIII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Waiulaula]]
Then the chiefs were united and became one flesh, and they returned and lived in Kauai, in the uplands of Honopuwai.
Chapter XVIII · Part 1
Now Aiwohikupua's messengers, Snipe and Turnstone, went to tell Hinaikamalama of the union of Aiwohikupua with Poliahu.
Chapter XVIII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kauai]]
When Hinaikamalama heard about it, then she asked her parents to let her go on a visit to Kauai, and the request pleased her parents.
Chapter XVIII · Part 2 · the middle of the night
As Hinaikamalama sat there, behold! Hauailiki conceived a passion for her.
Chapter XVIII · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kauai]]
And in the game in a little while my piece blocked the game, and he was beaten. I said to him, 'You have lost; you ought to stay with me as we have wagered.' Said that fellow, 'I will wait to carry out the bet until I return, from a touring trip. Then I will fulfill the bet, O princess.'
Chapter XVIII · Part 2 · 📍 [[White Mountain]]
Then at Hinaikamalama's story, Poliahu was filled with hot anger; and she went back to White Mountain and is there to this day.
Chapter XVIII · Part 2
Aiwohikupua Poliahu Hinaikamalama
That fellow there, Aiwohikupua, is my reason for coming to this land, because I heard that he was married to Poliahu; therefore I came here to see how he had lied to me.
Chapter XVIII · Part 2 · That very night
And because of Hinaikamalama's words, Aiwohikupua took Hinaikamalama to carry out their vow.
Chapter XVIII · Part 2 · That very night
That very night as they rested comfortably in the fulfillment of their bargain, Hinaikamalama grew numb with cold, for Poliahu had spread her cold snow mantle over her enemy.
Chapter XIX · After this
Said Hinaikamalama, "I will not give you a kiss; the heat from that wife of yours will come again, it will never do. Fare you well!"
Chapter XIX · When they met
"Not so," said Hinaikamalama, "let me be virgin until you are ready to come and get me at Hana."
Chapter XIX · 📍 [[Kauai]] · until morning
cold penetrated the whole kilu shelter and lasted until morning, when Poliahu and her companions left Kauai. At the same time Hinaikamalama left Kauai.
Chapter XIX · In the end
In the end Kauakahialii died; the chief, his friend, took the rule, and their wife was the counsellor.
Chapter XX · After Kailiokalauokekoa's death
Kekalukaluokewa Kailiokalauokekoa
After Kailiokalauokekoa's death, the chief's house and all things else became Kekalukaluokewa's, and he portioned out the land and set up his court.
Chapter XX
Then he commanded his counsellor to make ready 4,000 canoes for the journey to Hawaii after a wife, according to the custom of a chief.
Chapter XX · 📍 [[Kauai]] · In the month called "the first twin,"
In the month called "the first twin," when the sea was calm, they left Kauai and came to Hawaii.

Said Waka to her grandchild, "Do not go again to the coast, for Kekalukaluokewa has come to Keaau to get you for his wife.
Chapter XX · 📍 [[Keaau]] · In the early morning of the fourth day of retirement
In the early morning of the fourth day of retirement, she arose and went down with her hunchbacked attendant to Keaau.
Chapter XX
Asked the grandmother, "Were you pleased with the man?" "Yes," answered Laieikawai.
Chapter XX
My grandmother wishes Kekalukaluokewa to be my husband. What do you say? What you all agree, I will do.
Chapter XX · 📍 [[Keaau]] · Every time Laieikawai came to Keaau
Every time Laieikawai came to Keaau the youth Halaaniani saw her without knowing where she came from; from that time the wicked purpose never left his mind to win Laieikawai, but he was ashamed to approach her and never spoke to her.
Chapter XX · During the four days of Laieikawai's retirement
To-day I heard that to-morrow she is to be the chief's of Kauai; therefore let us exert all our arts over her to win her to me.
Chapter XX · in the dark of evening
Therefore, as you desire, go home, and in the dark of evening return, and we will sleep here on the mountain; that is the time for us to determine whether you lose or win.
Chapter XXI
Malio said to Halaaniani, "You listen to me! When you get on the back of the wave and glide along with the breaker, do not ride--lose the wave;
Chapter XXI
While they were talking Waka covered the land with a mist. Then the thunder pealed and there was Laieikawai on the crest of the wave.
Chapter XXI
As Kekalukaluokewa and Laieikawai lay resting on the wave, Halaaniani caught Laieikawai by the soles of her feet and got his arm around her, and Laieikawai's surf board was lost. Kekalukaluokewa rode in alone and landed on the dry beach.
Chapter XXII · Part 1 · at midday of the second day after Laieikawai joined Halaaniani
Said the grandmother in a rage, "This is no Kekalukaluokewa; this is Halaaniani, the brother of Malio. Therefore, I give you my oath never to see your face again, my grandchild, from this time until I die, for you have disobeyed me. I thought to hide you away until you could care for me. But now, live with your husband for the future; keep your beauty, your supernatural power is yours no longer; that you must look for from your husband; work with your own hands; let your husband be your fortune and your pride."
Chapter XXII · Part 1
Therefore, I come to beseech you to give me a canoe and men also, and I will go and get the foster child of Kapukaihaoa, Laielohelohe, who is like Laieikawai, for they are twins.
Chapter XXII · Part 1 · for this journey
And for this journey Kekalukaluokewa gave a double canoe with men and all the equipment.
Chapter XXII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Oahu]]
According to her determination, Waka sailed to Oahu, where the canoes landed at Honouliuli and Waka saw the rainbow arching up at Wahiawa.
Chapter XXII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kukaniloko]]
Said Kapukaihaoa, "The pig is well, therefore I give you my foster child to care for, and if you succeed well, and I hear of your prosperity, then I will come to seek you."
Chapter XXII · Part 1
Then Waka entered with Kapukaihaoa the taboo place where Laielohelohe was hidden; Waka waited and the priest went still farther into the place and brought her to Waka, then Waka knelt before Laielohelohe and did her reverence.
Chapter XXII · Part 2 · On the day when Laielohelohe went on board the canoe
On the day when Laielohelohe went on board the canoe, then the priest took his foster child's umbilical cord and wore it about his neck.
Chapter XXII · Part 2
Then Laielohelohe and Waka were borne under cover of the mist on the birds to Paliuli, and Laielohelohe was placed in the house prepared for her and stayed there until Halaaniani took her.
Chapter XXII · Part 2 · At the time when Waka took away her supernatural protection from Laieikawai
At the time when Waka took away her supernatural protection from Laieikawai, Aiwohikupua's sisters took counsel as to what they had better do; and they agreed upon what they should say to Laieikawai.
Chapter XXII · Part 2
Kahalaomapuana came to Laieikawai, and she said: "We became your bodyguard while Waka still protected you; now she has removed her guardianship and left you. Therefore, as we agreed in former days, 'Adversity to one is adversity to all;' now that you are in trouble, we will share your trouble. As we will not forsake you, so do not you forsake us until our death; this is what we have agreed."
Chapter XXII · Part 2
Halaaniani and Laieikawai lived as man and wife and Aiwohikupua's sisters acted as her servants.
Chapter XXII · Part 2 · 📍 [[Keaau]]
Halaaniani left her. Laieikawai went on to Keaau, and at a place not close to Kekalukaluokewa, there she remained; and night fell, and the husband did not return; day came, and he did not return. She waited that day until night; it was no better; then she thought her husband was dead, and she began to pour out her grief.
Chapter XXIII · Part 1
Said Malio to her brother, "That is Laielohelohe, another of Waka's grandchildren; she is betrothed to Kekalukaluokewa, to be his wife.
Chapter XXIII · Part 2
When Malio heard this she returned to her brother and said, "We have failed to-day, but I will try my supernatural arts to fulfill your desire."
Chapter XXIV
On his arrival there, Halaaniani heard there was to be a great day for Kakalukaluokewa, a day of celebration for the marriage of Laielohelohe with Kekalukaluokewa.
Chapter XXIV · On that very day
And when the voice of the thunder crashed, clouds and mist covered the land, and when it cleared, the place of meeting was to be seen; and there were Laielohelohe and Halaaniani resting upon the birds.
Chapter XXIV
Now they arrived at the same instant as those for whom the day was celebrated; lo! Laieikawai saw that Halaaniani was not dead, and she remembered Kahalaomapuana's prediction.
Chapter XXIV
Waka Kekalukaluokewa Laielohelohe
Then Waka sent Kekalukaluokewa upon the birds, and when the clouds cleared, lo! Laielohelohe and Kekalukaluokewa sat together upon the birds. Then the congregation shouted all about the place of assembly: "The marriage of the chiefs! The marriage of the chiefs!"
Chapter XXIV · 📍 [[Olaa]]
When Laieikawai heard Waka's taunts, her heart smarted and the hearts of every one of Aiwohikupua's sisters with her; then Kihanuilulumoku bore them back on his tongue to dwell in the uplands of Olaa; thus did Laieikawai begin to burn with shame at Waka's words, and she and her companions went away together.
Chapter XXIV · On that day
On that day, Kekalukaluokewa wedded Laielohelohe, and they went up to the uplands of Paliuli until their return to Kauai.
Chapter XXIV · 📍 [[Kauai]] · When they were ready to return
And when the chief resolved to return to Kauai, he took his wife and their grandmother to Kauai, and the men together with them.
Chapter XXIV · 📍 [[Pihanakalani]]
and they went to Kauai, to Pihanakalani, and turned over the rule over the land and its divisions to Kapukaihaoa, and Waka was made the third heir to the chief's seat.
Chapter XXIV · 📍 [[Pihanakalani]]
and they went to Kauai, to Pihanakalani, and turned over the rule over the land and its divisions to Kapukaihaoa, and Waka was made the third heir to the chief's seat.
Chapter XXIV · 📍 [[Olaa]]
Laieikawai was at Olaa as beautiful as ever, but the art of resting on the wings of birds was taken away from her; nevertheless some of her former power remained and the signs of her chiefly rank, according to the authority the sisters of Aiwohikupua had over the lizard.
Chapter XXV
After saying all this, Kahalaomapuana left her sisters and was borne on the back of the big lizard Kihanuilulumoku and went to fetch Kaonohiokala.
Chapter XXV · 📍 [[Hawaii]]
So her companions carried out the chief's wish and they set out to travel around about Hawaii.
Chapter XXV · 📍 [[Puakea]] · Early in the morning of the next day
Early in the morning of the next day they went on board the canoe and sailed and rested at Honuaula on Maui, and from there to Lahaina, and the next day to Molokai; they left Molokai, went to Laie, Koolauloa, and stayed there some days.
Chapter XXV · 📍 [[Laie, Koolauloa]] · On the day of their arrival at Laie, that night
I have heard from my grandmother that this is my birthplace; we were twins, and because our father had killed the first children our mother bore, because they were girls, when we also were born girls, then I was hidden within a pool of water; there I was brought up by my grandmother.
Chapter XXV · On the day of their arrival at Laie, that night
And my twin, the priest guarded her, and because the priest who guarded my companion saw the prophet who had come here from Kauai to see us, therefore the priest commanded my grandmother to flee far away; and this was why I was carried away to Paliuli and why we met there.
Chapter XXVI
After praying he came back and went to sleep, and as he slept the seer received the assurance in a vision from his god, saying, "The time has come to fulfill your wishes, to free you from the weariness of your long search. She is here--the one who told you her story; this is the one you are seeking.
Chapter XXVI
At this the seer awoke from his dream; he arose and brought the pig and the cock and held them out to Laieikawai, saying, "Blessed am I, my mistress, that my god has shown you to me, for long have I followed you to win a blessing from you.
Chapter XXVI · 📍 [[Honopuwaiakua]] · that night
And after these things the prophet did as his god commanded--sailed that night and dwelt in the place commanded.
Chapter XXVI · 📍 [[Wailua]]
Aiwohikupua Poliahu Hinaikamalama
Lo! all the virgin daughters of Kauai were gathered together, all of the rank of chief with the girls of well-to-do families, at the command of Aiwohikupua to bring the virgins before the chief, the one who pleased the chief to become the wife of Aiwohikupua.
Chapter XXVI · On the day of his imprisonment
Through the persistence of his enemies, it was decided to make the seer fast within that place and let him stay there until he died.
Chapter XXVI · at early daybreak
On the day of his imprisonment, that night at dawn, he prayed to his god. And at early daybreak the door of the house was opened for him and he went out without being seen.
Chapter XXVI · in the night
Now the seer heard this command from some distance away, and in the night he took a banana plant covered with tapa like a human figure and put it inside the place where he had been imprisoned, and went back and joined his daughters and told them all about his troubles.
Chapter XXVI · After this
Hulumaniani Laieikawai Aiwohikupua
After this the seer took Laieikawai's skirt and laid it down on the land; then the thunder crashed, the temple fell, the altar crumbled.
Chapter XXVI · when Aiwohikupua looked upon Laieikawai
And when Aiwohikupua looked upon Laieikawai his heart trembled, and he fell to the ground as if dead.
Chapter XXVI · When the chief recovered
When the chief recovered he commanded his head man to bring the seer and his daughter to fill the place of Poliahu and Hinaikamalama.
Chapter XXVI
When the seer heard it he said to the head man, "Return and tell the chief, my lord indeed, that my lordly daughter shall never become his wife; she is chief over all the islands."
Chapter XXVI · 📍 [[Honopuwaiakua]] · after that
The head man went away; the seer, too, went away with his daughters, nor was he seen again after that at Wailua; they returned and dwelt at Honopuwaiakua.
Chapter XXVII · Part 1 · 📍 [[The Shining Heavens]] · At the rising of the sun
Kahalaomapuana Kihanuilulumoku
At the rising of the sun Kahalaomapuana entered inside Kihanuilulumoku and swam through the ocean and came to The Shining Heavens; in four months and ten days they reached Kealohilani.
Chapter XXVII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Nuumealani]]
A terrible sight to Mokukelekahiki to see that lizard; he flew away up to Nuumealani, the Raised Place in the Heavens; there was Kaeloikamalama, the magician who closes the door of the taboo house on the borders of Tahiti, where Kaonohiokala was hidden.
Chapter XXVII · Part 1
Kihanuilulumoku Kaeloikamalama Mokukelekahiki
Then Kihanuilulumoku lifted his tail out of the water, the sea swelled, the waves overwhelmed the cliffs from their foundations as high waves sweep the coast in February; the spume of the sea rose high, the sun was darkened, white sand was flung on the shore.
Chapter XXVII · Part 1
Kihanuilulumoku Kahalaomapuana Kaeloikamalama
Then Kihanuilulumoku threw out Kahalaomapuana, and she fell upon Kaeloikamalama's neck.
Chapter XXVII · Part 1
Kahalaomapuana Mokukelekahiki Kaeloikamalama
When Mokukelekahiki and Kaeloikamalama heard she was their own child, then they released her from Kaeloikamalama's neck and kissed their daughter.
Chapter XXVII · Part 1
Said Kaeloikamalama, "We will show you the road, then you shall ascend."
Chapter XXVII · Part 1 · Not long after
Lanalananuiaimakua Kaeloikamalama
Not long after, Great ancestral spider let down a spider-web that made a network in the air.
Chapter XXVII · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kahakaekaea]]
Moanalihaikawaokele Kahalaomapuana
She let go, and the father arose and set her upon his lap and wailed, and when he had ended wailing, the father asked, "On what journey do you come hither?"
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1 · Very early in the morning
Said the stranger, "I am Kahalaomapuana, the last fruit of your womb."
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1
Kahalaomapuana Moanalihaikawaokele
So Kahalaomapuana went back to Moanalihaikawaokele; the father asked, "How was it?"
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1 · very early in the morning before daylight
Then the girl took the things as directed and returned to her father.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1
She embraced the girl and wailed out the words in the line above.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1
I come to get my older brother for a husband for our friend, the princess of the great broad land of Hawaii, Laieikawai, our protector when we were lovelessly deserted by our older brother;
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1
The mother said, "I grant it in recompense for your guarding my polluted garment.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Awakea]]
Laukieleula Kahalaomapuana Halulu
Then Laukieleula and Kahalaomapuana rested upon the bird's wings and it flew and came to Awakea, the Noonday, the one who opens the door of the sun where Kaonohiokala lived.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Awakea]]
lo! the chief appeared sleeping right in the eye of the sun in the fire of its intensest heat, so he was named after this custom The Eye of the Sun.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 2
Then Laukieleula seized hold of one of the sun's rays and held it. Then the chief awoke.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 2
When the shadows came over the place where the chief lay, then he called his sister, and went to her, and wept over her, for his heart fainted with love for his youngest sister, and long had been the days of their separation.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 2
When the chief heard these things, he turned to their mother and asked, "Laukieleula, do you consent to my going to get the one whom she speaks of for my wife?" "I have already given you, as she requested me; if anyone else had brought her to get you, if she had not come to us two, she might have stayed below; grant your little sister's request, for you first opened the pathway, she closed it; no one came before, none after her." Thus the mother.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 2 · That night
Kahalaomapuana Kaonohiokala Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea Mailelaulii Mailepakaha Laieikawai
"Mailehaiwale went to woo her, gained nothing, the woman refused; Mailekaluhea went, gained nothing at all; Mailelaulii went, gained nothing at all; Mailepakaha went, gained nothing at all; she refused them all; I remained, I never went to woo her; he went away in a rage leaving us in the jungle.
Chapter XXVIII · Part 2
"Then it was we returned to where he left us, and the princess protected us, until I left to come hither; that is how we live."
Chapter XXVIII · Part 2 · within one month
These words ended, she returned by the same way that she had climbed up, and within one month found Kihanuilulumoku and told all briefly, "We are all right; we have prospered."
Chapter XXVIII · Part 2 · 📍 [[Honopuwaiakua]] · Eleven months, ten days, and four days over
They came to Kauai; the lizard sniffed about the coast, found nothing; sniffed inland; there they were, living at Honopuwaiakua, and Kihanuilulumoku threw forth Kahalaomapuana.
Chapter XXIX · When Kahalaomapuana returned from Kealohilani
Kahalaomapuana Kaonohiokala Laieikawai
When Kahalaomapuana returned from Kealohilani, from her journey in search of a chief, she related the story of her trip, of its windings and twistings, and all the things she had seen while she was away.
Chapter XXIX
O comrades, as Kahalaomapuana tells me the message of your brother and my husband, a strange foreboding weighs upon me, and I am amazed; I supposed him to be a man, a mighty god that!
Chapter XXIX · one month before her return
Now, before Kahalaomapuana's return from Kealohilani, the seer foresaw what was to take place, one month before her return.
Chapter XXIX
When the seer left the chief planted flag signals all around the palace and stayed within the protected place as the prophet had commanded.
Chapter XXX · in the early morning
Kaonohiokala was seen sitting within the smoking heat of the sun, right in the middle of the sun's ring, encircled with rainbows and a red mist.
Chapter XXX · 📍 [[the prophet's inclosure]] · In the dusk of the evening
Now, as Kaonohiokala looked down upon the earth, lo! Laieikawai was clothed in the rainbow garment his sister, Kahalaomapuana, had brought her; then through this sign he recognized Laieikawai as his betrothed wife.
Chapter XXX · 📍 [[the moon]]
Then he called to his sisters, "I take my wife and at this time of the night will come again hither." Then his wife was caught away out of sight of her companions, but the prophet had a glimpse of her being carried on the rainbow to dwell within the moon;
Chapter XXX · 📍 [[the land within the clouds]] · After all these things were put in order and well established,
After all these things were put in order and well established, Laieikawai and her husband were taken on the rainbow to the land within the clouds and dwelt in the husband's home.
Chapter XXX · 📍 [[the moon]] · the seer went away
Kaonohiokala Kahalaomapuana Laieikawai Laielohelohe Moanalihaikawaokele Laukieleula
When these words were ended the seer went away, and when he had departed the five sisters were taken up to dwell with the wife in the shelter of the moon.
Chapter XXX · in the morning of the next day, at sunrise
Then the Beloved began to punish Aiwohikupua and Waka. To Waka he meted out death,
Chapter XXX · in the morning of the next day, at sunrise
Aiwohikupua was punished by being deprived of all his wealth, to wander like a vagrant over the earth until the end of his days.
Chapter XXX
At the request of Laieikawai to spare Laielohelohe and her husband, the danger passed them by, and they became rulers over the land thereafter.
Chapter XXX · When the chief had avenged them upon their enemies,
When the chief had avenged them upon their enemies, the chief placed Kahalaomapuana as ruler over them
Chapter XXX · When the chief had avenged them upon their enemies,
Kaonohiokala Laieikawai Laielohelohe Kekalukaluokewa
and stationed his other sisters over separate islands. And Kekalukaluokewa was chief counsellor under Laielohelohe,
Chapter XXXI · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kahakaekaea]] · After the marriage of Laieikawai and Kaonohiokala
After the marriage of Laieikawai and Kaonohiokala, when his sisters and the seer and Kekalukaluokewa and his wife were well established, after all this had been set in order, they returned to the country in the heavens called Kahakaekaea and dwelt in the taboo house on the borders of Tahiti.
Chapter XXXI · Part 1 · when she became wife under the marriage bond
And when she became wife under the marriage bond, all power was given her as a god except that to see hidden things and those obscure deeds which were done at a distance; only her husband had this power.
Chapter XXXI · Part 1 · about the sixth year of Laieikawai's happy life with her husband
They had lived perhaps five years under the marriage contract, and about the sixth year of Laieikawai's happy life with her husband, Kaonohiokala fell into sin with Laielohelohe without anyone knowing of his falling into sin.
Chapter XXXI · Part 1 · In the fifth year, at the end of the first quarter
At that time virtue departed far from the mind of Kaonohiokala and he fell into sin.
Chapter XXXI · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kealohilani]] · Now at this time
And to carry out his evil purpose, he transferred his sisters to be guards over the land called Kealohilani, and arranged that they should live with Mokukelekahiki and have charge of the land with him.
Chapter XXXI · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kealohilani]]
But Kahalaomapuana would not consent to return to Kealohilani, for she cared more for her former post of honor than to return to Kealohilani.
Chapter XXXI · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kealohilani]]
The great reason why Kaonohiokala wished to separate Kahalaomapuana in Kealohilani was to hide his evil doings with Laielohelohe, for Kahalaomapuana was the only one who could see things done in secret; and she was a resolute girl, not one to give in. Kaonohiokala thought she might disclose to Moanalihaikawaokele this evil doing; so he got his sister away, and by his supernatural arts he made the lot fall to Kahalaomapuana.
Chapter XXXI · Part 2 · 📍 [[Lanikuakaa]] · on the tenth day
And she was borne by the rainbow to the land above the clouds, to Lanikuakaa, the heavens higher up.
Chapter XXXI · Part 2 · about the end of the second quarter of the fifth year
When his sister had gone, about the end of the second quarter of the fifth year, he went away below to carry out his lustful design upon Laielohelohe.
Chapter XXXI · Part 2
Not just at that time, but he made things right with Kekalukaluokewa by putting him in Kahalaomapuana's place and the seer as his chief counsellor.
Chapter XXXI · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kauai]]
Mailehaiwale Mailekaluhea Mailelaulii Mailepakaha
Mailehaiwale was made governor on Kauai, Mailekaluhea on Oahu,
Chapter XXXI · Part 2 · 📍 [[Oahu]]
Mailehaiwale was made governor on Kauai, Mailekaluhea on Oahu,
Chapter XXXI · Part 2 · 📍 [[Maui]]
Mailelaulii on Maui and the other islands, Mailepakaha on Hawaii.
Chapter XXXI · Part 2 · 📍 [[Hawaii]]
Mailelaulii on Maui and the other islands, Mailepakaha on Hawaii.
Chapter XXXII · When Kekalukaluokewa became head over the group
Kekalukaluokewa Kaonohiokala Laielohelohe
When Kekalukaluokewa became head over the group, then Kaonohiokala sent him to make a tour of the islands and perform the functions of a ruler, and he put Laielohelohe in Kekalukaluokewa's place as his substitute.
Chapter XXXII · 📍 [[Pihanakalani]] · the same day
So Kekalukaluokewa left Pihanakalani and started on the business of visiting the group; the same day Kaonohiokala left those below.
Chapter XXXII
Then Laielohelohe dismissed her doubts; and Kaonohiokala took Laielohelohe and they took their pleasure together.
Chapter XXXII · That very evening
That very evening she commanded her retainers, those who guarded the chief's canoe, to get the canoe ready to set sail to seek the husband.
Chapter XXXII · 📍 [[Oahu]]
When she sailed, she came to Oahu and stayed in the country people's houses. So she journeyed until her meeting with Kekalukaluokewa.
Chapter XXXIII · Part 1
they heard that Hinaikamalama was Kekalukaluokewa's wife
Chapter XXXIII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Honokalani]] · at dusk
Then Laielohelohe did not stay her anger against Hinaikamalama. So she got between them, pushed Hinaikamalama away, took Kekalukaluokewa and embraced him, and wakened him.
Chapter XXXIII · Part 1 · 📍 [[Honokalani]]
Do not take this woman for a stranger, she is my wedded wife.
Chapter XXXIII · Part 1
When Kekalukaluokewa awoke from his drunken sleep and saw his wife Laielohelohe, they kissed as strangers meet.
Chapter XXXIII · Part 2 · that same night
Then she called out to the attendants to light the lamps, and at dawn Kekalukaluokewa returned to his true wife, Laielohelohe. After that, Kekalukaluokewa went to Hinaikamalama every night without being seen; ten whole days passed that the two did evil together without the wife knowing it; for in order to carry out her husband's desire Laielohelohe's senses were darkened by the effects of awa.
Chapter XXXIII · Part 2
Laielohelohe Kekalukaluokewa Hinaikamalama
that is all, and this day Hinaikamalama's own guard told me--my husband's sister she is--ten days the chiefs have been together; that is my secret; and therefore my husband and I took pity on you and I came to tell you.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 1 · That night
Thus following, lo! she found her husband with Hinaikamalama.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 1 · 📍 [[Kauai]] · The next day
The next day he did the same thing again, so Laielohelohe gave up her love for her husband and returned to Kauai with her canoe, without thinking again of Kekalukaluokewa.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 1 · The next day after Laielohelohe reached Kauai after leaving her husband
The next day after Laielohelohe reached Kauai after leaving her husband, Kaonohiokala arrived again from Kahakaekaea, and met with Laielohelohe. Four months passed of their amorous meetings; this long absence of Kaonohiokala's seemed strange to Laieikawai, he had been away four months; and as Laieikawai wondered at the long absence, Kaonohiokala returned.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 1
Said Kaonohiokala, "Laielohelohe has had trouble with her husband; Kekalukaluokewa has taken a stranger to wife, and this is why I was so long away."
Chapter XXXIV · Part 1
Laieikawai Kaonohiokala Laielohelohe
Then Laieikawai said to her husband, "Get your wife and bring her up here and let us live together."
Chapter XXXIV · Part 1 · a year
On this journey Kaonohiokala stayed away a year; now Laieikawai did not think her husband's long stay strange, she laid it to Laielohelohe's troubles with Kekalukaluokewa.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 1 · Very early next morning
Very early next morning, at the time when the sun's warmth began to spread over the earth, she went to spy out Laukieleula; she was just asleep.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · At noon
At noon Laieikawai's eyes glanced downward, lo! Kaonohiokala sinned with Laielohelohe.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · That day
Laieikawai Moanalihaikawaokele Laukieleula
That day they all came together, Laieikawai and her parents-in-law, to see what to do about Kaonohiokala, and they came to their decision.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kahakaekaea]]
Moanalihaikawaokele Kaonohiokala
You have sinned, O Kaonohiokala, for you have defiled yourself and, therefore, you shall no longer have a place to dwell within Kahakaekaea, and the penalty you shall pay, to become a fearsome thing on the highway and at the doors of houses, and your name is Lapu, Vanity, and for your food you shall eat moths; and thus shall you live and your posterity.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Kealohilani]] · On the way back after Kaonohiokala's punishment
On the way back after Kaonohiokala's punishment, they encountered Kahalaomapuana in Kealohilani, and for the first time discovered she was there. And at this discovery, Kahalaomapuana told the story of her dismissal, as we saw in Chapter XXVII of this story, and at the end Kahalaomapuana was taken to fill Kaonohiokala's place.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · on the day when Laieikawai was let down
Laieikawai Moanalihaikawaokele
Said Moanalihaikawaokele, "Your sister can not live here with us, for she is defiled with Kaonohiokala; but if you want your sister, then you go and fill Kekalukaluokewa's place." Now Laieikawai readily assented to this plan.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · from this time forth
Laieikawai Moanalihaikawaokele
And on the day when Laieikawai was let down, Moanalihaikawaokele said, "Return to your sister and live virgin until your death, and from this time forth your name shall be no longer called Laieikawai, but your name shall be 'The Woman of the Twilight,' and by this name shall all your kin bow down to you and you shall be like a god to them."
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · 📍 [[Tahiti]] · when he had ended
Then, Moanalihaikawaokele said all these things told above, and when he had ended he returned to the heavens and dwelt in the taboo house on the borders of Tahiti.
Chapter XXXIV · Part 2 · from that time to this
And from that time to this she is still worshiped as The Woman of the Twilight.
