-
- História
Saumailagi, a young daughter of Finau 'Ulukālala falls ill. He pleads with the gods to spare her life but Saumailagi's condition shows no improvement. Mariner witnesses and documents the funerary customs at Saumailagi's funeral, a mix of Samoan and 'Ulukālala's own twist on tradition, perhaps, as Mariner theorizes, an act of defiance to the gods and tradition. And unexpectedly, 'Ulukālala's health suddenly declines.
