You stare at the tiki of your mother and feel your life flowing through your veins.
Choosing to align with Agana, hearing about Mama Koa's death, becoming the Great Captain, the bloodshed on the Prison Island, and the butchery of the Anyaten.
If you survived all that, it has to be for something. You will MAKE it be for something.
"I AM Ratu Adil."
Chief: Heh. Tell me something I don't know. C'mon.
The chief leads you out of the clearing. Several elders are waiting for you next to Kasi and the rest of the guards. They planned for this.
Kasi: Captain, what is this?
Chief: His destiny.
The guards stare in shock as the elders wrap you in an ʻAhu ʻula, a symbol of ultimate authority not used since the Red Ages.
A golden Mahiole is presented to you. You cast aside the worn one you wore as Captain to accept your new position.
Chief: Behold, Ratu Adil!
The villagers cheer while Kasi gapes.
Kasi: What have you done?!
"What I had to do."
Chief: Watch your tongue in His Majesty's presence!
Kasi: I swore to uphold The Great Peace. Not this.
"And you still are. I can't save this island through conquest. When we reveal the glory of the fleet to everyone, the other tribes will follow our leadership."
Kasi: You say, "we" and "our," but only one of us is dressed like a golden pigeon.
"Watch yourself, Kasi. You know I will enforce the Great Peace's Justice."
The other guards stare at Kasi, hands tepidly gripping their weapons.
Kasi: Understood… Your highness. What are our orders?
Their mouth said your highness, but their eyes showed a deep shame.
Chief: We must march in Ahido, the elite of this tribe will bow before you, and you will take your rightful place at the head of the House of Kāne.
Nizax: Captain!
Nizax hurtles through the brush, panting through their makeup.
Nizax: The Hall of Peace sent a chasqui with a message. The Axeholder requires us at Kutha Rakyat immediately.
“That’s the opposite direction from Ahido.”
Chief: You can’t be the leader we need if you are at the beck and call of another. Ahido is your destiny.
Kasi: We can’t disobey a direct order.
Chief: You seemed pretty close just that a few moments ago.
Kasi: You wanna be in the ground early, old-timer?!
“STOP!”
Going to Ahido now could help cement you among the Ahi, and if you go to the Hall of Peace now there is no telling when you’ll get a chance to come back.
But denying an order from the Axeholder, you have no idea how Agana will take it.
