Maui was a mighty Demi-god. However, he was a terrible fisherman. Maui was often laughed and teased by his brothers when he returned without a single fish.One day, Maui decided that it was time he redeem his reputation. Using his mystic powers, he made a magic hook from the bone of a great mana. He tied the hook to a strong fishing line, braided from olona. Maui set out for the deep waters with his brothers to go fishing. Cutting his skin, he drew blood and rubbed it on the hook to serve as bait. He then threw the magic hook into the sea. While chanting one of his magical incantations. The hook sank lower and lower until it hit the ocean floor. Suddenly, Maui felt a tug deep down. Thinking he had caught a great fish, he told his brothers to paddle the canoe with all of their might and not to look back. As they paddled, Maui continued to chant. Slowly, islands began rising from the sea behind them. Amazed at what he saw, Maui again urged his brothers to keep paddling with all their might and not to look back. However, growing tired and out of curiosity, Maui’s brothers turned and looked back. Maui’s magic hook had raised the entire Hawaiian chain of islands.
