The legend Of Kava Tonga

Today in literacy we watched a video about how KAVA got its name , it was very interesting to watch. It all started when only fefafa , Fefanga and there daughter were on the island until one day the king and some other men came . They were tired and needed food . The men saw fefafa and Fefanga , the couple agreed to bring the king some food . There was only 1 thing they could eat on the island but the king was sitting on it , they were left with only one option which was very heartbreaking . They were going to sacrifice there daughter for the king . One of the soilder/ men that came saw the daughter , but soon after that she was nowhere to be found . They decided to search for her but it was too late , Fefafa / her father had already killed the daughter . Once the king found out he explained how thankful he was but he refused to eat her . The king also said to leave her body alone and dont touch it . The next day they came back and two plants grew from it , one kava and the other a sugar cane . They also saw a rat that had eaten the kava it looked like it was drunk but when it went to eat the sugar cane he became sober .

- this story was very sad because they had to kill their daughter in order for the king to eat . It also showed how loyal the couple was to the king and his men . They didn't break there promise but they found another way . In the story they didn't say that the daughter was already sick so now i kinda understand why they had to kill her .
