Chief of War

Come. Help us.

Waineʻe!

Kaʻiana.

Kaʻiana. Kaʻiana.

- Kaʻi-- Kaʻiana. Kaʻiana! -

Hey. Not here.

Not here.

These people need our help.

Two hundred and forty-eight dead.

Many more are hurt and will not live.

The death of these kanaka are on your hands.

You dare put the blame on this council?

No one could know what would happen.

I did, Keʻeaumoku.

But you are not destined to lead this people.

What was the destiny of those who died?

Our gods did not kill them.

It was the foreign man and one ship. And they are coming back!

And what welcome will they get, Kaʻiana?

You threatened the Paleskin with death.

If there is blame, it rests on you.

- - Kaʻiana!

Enough.

If you are to lead our people,

they will die just like the rest,

along with everything we have.

Kaʻahumanu!

Kaʻiana. Hold on.

There's still much left to do.

We cannot come apart now.

I will not follow a man who will put us in danger.

If the foreign men are capable of this, your way is dangerous as well.

Your duty is to your ali ʻ i

but you know he is wrong.

I do not know if you are right.

You know what is coming.

I must stand with Kamehameha.

Then prepare yourself for what will come.

Was I wrong to ignore Kaʻiana's warning?

If it was a mistake, it has already passed.

It is my own people who pay for a Chief's mistakes,

mistakes of the Prophesied One.

I do not know how to help you.

I am sorry, my Chief.

The burden is mine alone.

It is mine.

It is over.

We cannot stay here.

Where would we go?

We go where the prophecy leads us.

The prophecy has led us to nothing.

We are heading back to Kauaʻi.

We cannot leave these people after what has happened to them, Kaʻiana.

In your time away, you have forgotten we were nothing in Kauaʻi.

Just outcasts of Maui's kingdom.

I will not go back to that.

We'll leave for Kauaʻi.

Leave her.

I have always followed you because you feared nothing.

No weapon, no chief.

I thought the outside world opened your eyes,

but you see nothing but fear.

I will stay here and face what is coming.

Nāhiʻōleʻa.

Tomorrow you and Heke will be on that canoe.

I was wrong to stand by Kamehameha.

If I stood by you, all of those people would still be alive.

I'm sorry.

Things are different since you've come back.

You are different.

A piece of you is missing.

You changed also.

We are stronger together.

Eh?

Find strength in me again.

I will leave for Maui. The Chiefs will support you.

We must face the reality of what he has become.

My family has served yours for generations,

but we have failed your father.

You have not failed me.

History will see your actions as just.

There are times...

I still see my father in his eyes.

Not the mad king he has become.

But he is lost.

He is lost.

I came to plant the symbol of life for those who died on the shallows.

They did not know...

the day would be their last.

Death comes fast in war.

Is this what is coming for us?

A warrior's end is death.

I cannot fight

knowing my death would bring you such sadness.

Find the overseer of the grove.

Bring him to me.

Cut the trees down.

- -

The gods of this sacred grove

promise death to those who desecrate their altars.

We didn't come for your altars, priest.

We've come to feed you to ours.

Come here.

Maui has come to this island.

We have to tell the others.

Nāhi,

the insignificant brother of Kaʻiana.

The stench of a traitor reeks like the sweat spot of my loincloth.

They never found your brother's body.

Perhaps Kaʻiana isn't dead after all.

Move.

- Run! -

- -

Leave him!

- -

- -

Nāhi!

Nāhi!

- -

Nāhi!

Little girl,

go back to Kohala with our message of war.

We will let my cousin and Kaʻiana's false gods come to me.

Take her back alive.

I will take her.

I have a message of my own.

Keōua.

Heke!

Keōua.

At the grove.

Where is Nāhi?

ʻŌpūnui is here.

Nāhi.

My brother, my Nāhi.

I swear to you, my brother,

my Nāhi...

...I will tear through men

and gods

to make right what happened to you.
