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 ʻi

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.

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.

The chant of victory or death is sung

In the pulsating of your bosom

Accept Kamehameha's Overseer Of Keomo

As my first token

Of war

If I cannot gain victory

By the fury

Of your awesome power,

Then grant me the strength

To die worthy of it

Now we wait.

The gods of the desert will show us the way to victory.

I will have victory with or without them.

Filth.

Unworthy.

These bones no longer feed the spiritual strength of my temple.

Defiled!

Thunder!

Father!

These bones taint this sacred house.

I need new ones!

You have given power to the nightmare fish.

I need new ones.

I need new bones to honor the God of Thunder.

Son!

Kūpule, oh no.

Bring the healers now!

Healers!

Son.

Son!

He has taken the overseer.

He will be Keōua's first sacrifice of war.

He also killed Nāhi, Kaʻiana's brother.

He must answer for this.

There is more.

Keōua stands with men of Kahekili's army.

Our watchers have seen their warriors gathering.

Then the time has come to see if The Prophecy you speak of is correct.

My Chief.

If Maui joins Keōua,

then Kaʻiana's knowledge of their army and his weapons will help us.

- Perhaps we can speak-- - We do not need Kaʻiana

and his Red-mouthed weapons.

We will attack Keōua with the power of the God of War.

You fight for Kaʻiana like a girl who has lost herself.

Kaʻiana is no longer welcome in this council.

You will stand with Kamehameha now.

Even if he is wrong?

He has made his decision.

Now it is our duty to serve his vision, not cloud his mind.

I have only done what you have asked.

Then your failure is my mistake.

No.

You were wise to bring me here.

I see now that all you know is your duty to your chiefs and to the gods.

You cannot see anything beyond the old ways.

That will not help Kamehameha to be king.

Do not offer your counsel to Kamehameha.

He no longer seeks it.

You need to eat.

- Do you plan to go alone? - Yes.

What of Kamehameha?

We do not need him.

When Keōua's dead, we will take the weapons back to Kauaʻi.

I will go with you.

- No. You stay. - I'm not asking.

I know Kaʻū better than any man of this court.

We go together.

We leave under the dark of the Hilo moon.

Take it.

We go to kill Keōua.

Alone?

You will not survive.

You must convince Kaʻiana to wait.

He will not listen.

Kamehameha prepares his army for war against Keōua and Maui.

He believes the War God will lead them to victory.

You will not win.

You need the Red-mouthed weapons.

Have you spoken to him?

He no longer seeks my counsel.

Men train their whole lives to be warriors,

yet they fear being wrong more than they fear death.

You go to the black desert for Keōua?

If you go, you will not leave Kaʻū alive.

Nor will your family.

We go to avenge Nāhi.

There are many ways to avenge Nāhi.

Your family look to you.

They'd follow you anywhere.

Even to their death.

They go to Kaʻū for you.

It is their choice.

No, Kaʻiana.

It is yours.

You have come too far to lose yourself in your grief.

Do not die for Nāhi.

Live for him.

If you have come in defense of your husband,

then you waste your words.

I have not come for him, my Chief.

But I have words for you,

if you allow it.

Speak.

If you face Kaʻū's army with Maui at their side,

you will not win.

I have fought with them. I've seen it.

You need Kaʻiana's Red-mouthed weapons.

The Paleskin's weapons have no place here.

Kaʻiana has followed prophecy his entire life.

It has led him here, to you.

The gods gave Kaʻiana the Red-mouthed weapons.

Let them speak as the voice of Kū.

Stop.

Leave us.

I am sorry about your brother.

You and your family are right to seek revenge for his death.

I have led my family from everything they know and love.

And still, no home.

No king.

The blood of innocents on our hands.

And now...

no Nāhi.

Perhaps I should not lead them anymore.

I have tried to be a fair chief.

Still, I cannot escape the bloodshed that is coming.

The blood of my own people.

Ever since my uncle gave me his War God,

I have been waiting to hear its voice.

Feel its power.

Perhaps I haven't heard it

because it has chosen to speak with a new voice.

What do you mean?

The Red-mouthed weapons.

Your men wrestle like pigs rooting for a tit.

Pray your gods are ready,

because your men are not.

My gods are ready for what lies ahead.

Good.

Keep going.

The gods speak for Keōua.
