"No, gaining one's food from the land is far from despoiling it, though far from leaving it undisturbed. What I am talking of are those that take a pure place and change it into a<em>resort</em>." She pronounced the word the way a vegan might say<em>slaughterhouse</em>. "And so I am not so much ousted as I am in voluntary exile. For you see, Robert, there is a Developer who wishes to take my land and turn it into something called Robin's Nest. Apparently, there was some show on the television box called Magnum PI, and this Magnum, as they call him, lived in this Nest on Hawai'i. I was able to hold him off before, but now... with your Great King President being a Developer himself, the situation has become more dire."<br/><br/>The very thought caused her to shiver. "When a land is destroyed, so is its Tiki. Or perhaps worse. It may not be my body that is destroyed, but my very soul. You should see my poor sister Aulani." Now Ponipua was in tears. "So I have left my land so that I may find others who can help me. Your uncle, he was among the first to offer his aid, but... now... Can you help me, Robert?" Her tear-welled eyes were practically begging, her desperation painfully clear to all.
