The Three Brothers By Keonaona Kapuni-Reynolds Three brothers were living with their father and at that time the father decided that it was time for his sons to go out into the world and learn a trade. They started off from the house and separated from the main road as there were three small roads leading from that main road and they all chose a different road. However, before they separated the eldest said, “In 3 years time we shall meet again on this road with all the knowledge we have acquired.” The eldest went to on the left road where he met an old man. The eldest said, “I would like to learn a trade.” And the old man replied, “I will teach you the trade of stealing so that you may get whatever you want.” The eldest agreed and returned with the old man. Just like the eldest the second brother met an old man from whom he learned all the different types of fishing, and the youngest met an old man who taught him how to see everything around him and find anything. When the three years were up they all met at the same road and at that time they were the smartest in stealing, fishing and stargazing. As they were returning home to their father, the king’s messenger ran by and said, “The king was stolen by the great Barracuda of the sea, you guys will go get him!” The brothers agreed and the stargazer looked about because with his knowledge he could find anything that he wanted. He then saw the king sitting on the sleeping barracuda in the middle of the sea. As soon as the second brother heard this he decided to spear the barracuda however he was afraid that in doing so he will kill the king as well. So the eldest went to where the king was and stole him from the barracuda without even waking it up. At that time the second son lifted his spear and speared the barracuda and killed it. To thank the brothers for their help, the king gave them 3 land divisions for each of them to rule over. The brothers returned to their father’s home and that is where they all lived wealthy and happy until the end of their days. |
