As Aiai left the house it burned fiercely, and, carrying out the
instructions of his father he called upon him to destroy by fire
all those who had caught and tied them in their burning house. As he
finished his appeal he saw the rippling of the wind on the sea and
a misty rain coming with it, increasing as it came till it reached
Lehoula, which so increased the blazing of the fire that the flames
reached out into the crowd of people for those who had obeyed the
King. The man from Molokai, who was the cause of the trouble, was
reached also and consumed by the fire, and the charred bodies were left
to show to the people the second stroke of Ku-ula's vengeance. Strange
to say, all those who had nothing to do with this cruel act, though
closer to the burning house, were uninjured; the tongues of fire
reached out only for the guilty ones. In a little while but a few
smouldering logs and ashes were all that remained of the house of
Ku-ula. Owing to this strange action of the fire some of the people
doubted the death of Ku-ula and his wife, and much disputation arose
among them on the subject.

When Aiai walked out through the flames and smoke and reached the
cave, he stayed there through that night till the next morning, then,
leaving his hook, pearl shell, and stone there, he went forth till
he came to the road at Puilio, where he met several children amusing
themselves by shooting arrows, one of whom made friends with him and
asked him to his house. Aiai accepted the invitation, and the boy
and his parents treating him well, he remained with them for some days.

While Aiai was living in their house the parents of the boy heard
of the King's order for all the people of Hana to go fishing for
hinalea. The people obeyed the royal order, but when they went down to
the shore with their fishing baskets they looked around for the usual
bait (_ueue_), which was to be pounded up and put into the baskets,
but they could not find any, nor any other material to be so used,
neither could they see any fish swimming around in the sea. "Why?" was
the question. Because Ku-ula and his wife had taken with them all
the fish and everything pertaining to fishing. Finding no bait they
pounded up limestone and placed it in the baskets and swam out and
set them in the sea. They watched and waited all day, but in vain,
for not a single hinalea was seen, nor did any enter the baskets. When
night came they went back empty-handed and came down
