kuamoo

Updated: June 28, 2025

So the King sent his men forth under Major General Kalaimoku and the two host met a Kuamoo. The battle was long and fierce men and women fighting side by side, as was the custom and when the day was done the rebels were flying in every direction in hopeless panic, and idolatry and the tabu were dead in the land! The royalists marched gayly home to Kailua glorifying the new dispensation.
