my claim to fame is that i went to the same intermediate and high school as okalani. he haumana kahuku high no ke ola. no, i never bought a year book so no, i do not have pictures, but i was part of av club and so i have video of her performing hula, 'ōteʻa, and the 'danger' by bts choreography at a school cultural festival 😭😭😭. i believe she was namjoon and jungkook (her group was only 3 people at the time; yes, this is the same group she talks about being a part of with her brother ahe, no, he's not in the video because he'd already graduated by them. it was just her and the twins at that point.). if the okalani akana sees this and wants cursed amateur footage from 2014... well, she knows who to send an ask to off anon (👀👀👀praying she logs back in using her old bts fan account so we can see what her degenerate reblogs were circa 2012).

Nightmarchers, what are they ?
Nightmarchers Research Post wk 12
Background Information: Nightmarchers, or Huaka‘i pō in Hawaiian, are ghostly figures from Hawaiian folklore. They are believed to be the restless spirits of ancient Hawaiian warriors who march at night to protect sacred sites or escort the souls of the dead to the afterlife. According to legend, Nightmarchers appear in long processions, often accompanied by drums, chanting, and torches, and their path must never be crossed. To disrespect their procession is said to bring misfortune or even death.
Nightmarchers are tied to specific times and places, such as the nights of Kane, Ku, or Lono (Hawaiian gods) and areas with strong spiritual significance like ancient battlefields or burial grounds. Those who encounter them are advised to lie face down, avoid eye contact, and show reverence to avoid harm. In rare cases, a person with ancestral ties to the warriors may be spared or even protected by the procession.
Pop Culture/Media Reference: Nightmarchers have appeared in pop culture, notably in the TV series "Hawaii Five-0", where an episode explores their mythology as part of a supernatural crime investigation. Additionally, in the survival video game "Nightmarchers", the legend comes alive as players navigate a post-apocalyptic Hawaiian setting where these spirits guard sacred land.
Another instance is the 2015 documentary "The Haumana", which explores Hawaiian cultural legends, including Nightmarchers, to preserve their significance in modern Hawaiian identity. These depictions highlight the deep respect for Hawaiian culture while bringing the eerie legend to a wider audience.
Analysis: If Nightmarchers aren’t supernatural, what might they be? One possibility is auditory and visual illusions created by the wind, animals, or other natural phenomena in the dense Hawaiian forests at night. For example, the sound of drums or chanting could be attributed to the acoustics of waves or wind echoing through valleys. Another theory could involve collective memory—when communities pass down stories, shared belief systems might make people more likely to perceive these processions as real.
From a historical perspective, the Nightmarcher legends might serve as cultural reminders of ancient practices and taboos, reinforcing respect for sacred sites and traditions. This symbolic role might explain their enduring significance in Hawaiian culture.
Do I Think It’s Real? While scientific explanations provide plausible alternatives, the reverence surrounding Nightmarchers makes me pause. The consistency of these stories across generations and the fear they evoke suggest there’s more to them than just imagination. Whether a spiritual phenomenon or deeply rooted cultural memory, Nightmarchers represent the profound connection between the Hawaiian people, their land, and their ancestors.

From Winners of the Red Bull Illume Photo Contest 2021, one of 17 photos. Semi-Finalist, Emerging. This shot of surfer Haumana O'Connor was taken at the end of the road in Tahiti, the wave is called Teahupo'o and it's every kind of scary that water could possibly be. We arrived at the spot and at first glance it looked somehow small from the shore, but I decided to swim to the spot anyway and to my surprise a decent set arrived and I knew I made the right decision. You don't know until you try! When I arrived there weren't many surfers, so I started shooting landscapes and underwater. After two hours the locals arrived and then I knew it would just get better and better, their knowledge of the ocean is like no other. (© Kristiyan Dimitrov Markov / Red Bull Illume)

Te Mana Ori
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Book: The Royal Romance (AU)
Pairings: Liam x MC
Characters belong to Pixelberry; MC Ella Brooks Rys belongs to me.
Summary: The gang is in California for one of Ella’s competitions.
A/N: A @wackydrabbles​ challenge about my MC’s hobby.
A/N2: Notice —> this is not me in the gifs above. I was in the same competition but wore pink.
Warnings: adult language; sexual innuendos
Words: 444
“Li!” Drake grabbed his best friend’s shoulders from behind and squeezed. “The women are … half naked.”
Liam chuckled. “Ella warned you, remember? That’s the culture.”
“It’s called Te Mana Ori,” Max squealed and pointed towards the stage. “I think Ella is next!”
The group turned their attention to an older woman wearing a mumu with hibiscus flowers. “Aloha family! Up next is my haumana, and she so happens to be a queen,” the crowd, including Max, Liam, and Drake began to cheer. “Please welcome to the competition, Queen Ella Rys!”
The Tahitian drum team began to play their toere percussion instruments. The drums are made from hollowed-out logs of milo wood, and are played one-handed with a heavy tapered stick made of very hard iron wood. Ella appeared on the stage, her back facing the crowd. She wore a navy blue pareu with white accents, a navy blue bikini top, small white flowers throughout her long black hair, and a tall flower crown that moved with the fast movement of her hips.
All three men watched with widened eyes as Ella’s hips moved even as she lowered herself to the ground. She turned and caught her husband’s eyes in the crowd; she smiled as she began to move her hips in slow, purposeful movements. Liam felt his pants getting tighter as his cock pressed against the fabric. He adjusted himself quickly and leaned forward, his eyes following his wife as she moved across the stage.
The drummers followed her lead, going from fast to slow and back again. Ella rose from her knees, hips still moving in large circles, and began to move her hips from side to side. Max gaped at his best friend on the stage. “How does her upper body not move? She’s a magician!”
The crowd began to clap and cheer even louder as the drums echoed through the large, open field of grass. Spurred on by the applause, Ella’s hips moved faster and faster until the lead drummer yelled out “Hey!” Another eight beats later, Ella’s ending pose was rewarded with a standing ovation.
As Ella waved and walked off the stage, Liam stood quickly from his chair. “I’ll be … ahh, right back.” He speed-walked through a crowd of people who kept congratulating him on his wife’s performance. “Thank you, yes, she’s beautiful, thank you.” As soon as he saw her behind the stage, he grabbed her hips and pulled her hard against him.
“Hey!” Ella laughed when she saw that look in his eye. “Get you revved up didn’t I?”
Liam picked up his wife and threw her over his shoulder. “You fucking know it.”

                       𝐓𝐀𝐒𝐊  𝐎𝐍𝐄  :  𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐑  𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐄.
›  001.   how  did  your  muse  find  out  about  being  a  demigod,  and  how  did  they  react ? 
samson’s  first  experience  with  his  demigod  powers  came  when  he  was  eight  years  old  ;  an  instinctive  reaction,  he  sang  what  he  thought  was  a  lullaby  in  english  learnt  from  his  mother  (  but  was  in  fact  one  from  his  father  in  ancient  greek  )  in  an  attempt  to  calm  his  best  friend  lila  down  when  she  skinned  her  knee.   little  did  he  know  that  this  would  become  his  unofficial  claiming,  her  wound  healing  almost  instantaneously  as  apollo  responded  to  his  healing  song. 
easy  to  dismiss  as  an  overactive  imagination,  the  two  friends  kept  it  a  secret  from  their  parents,  and  it  isn’t  until  he’s  twelve  and  narrowly  escapes  an  attack  from  a  snake  way  bigger  than  average  thanks  to  a  man  with  the  legs  of  a  goat  (  just  when  things  couldn’t  get  any  weirder  )  that  the  satyr  fully  explains  his  demigod  heritage  to  him  and  his  stunned  family.
he  took  it  well  considering  ;  the  prospect  was  quite  exciting,  puzzle  pieces  slotting  into  place  that  he  hadn’t  realised  had  been  missing  (  the  absence  of  a  father  had  never  been  a  huge  point  of  contention  in  his  life  thanks  to  the  endless  love  offered  by  his  mother  and  grandparents  ).   going  off  to  camp  was  an  adventure,  and  he  wouldn’t  realise  the  seriousness  of  the  danger  he  was  in  as  the  son  of  a  god  until  many  years  later.
›  002.   how  does  your  muse’s  mortal  family  feel  about  them  being  a  demigod ?
his  family  have  been  nothing  but  supportive.   grace  always  had  her  suspicions  but  never  fully  believed  the  claims  of  her  golden-haired  lover  when  he  boasted  he  was  the  god  of  music  —  until  even  she  couldn’t  deny  the  presence  of  something  other  when  the  satyr  appears  in  their  living  room  and  proclaims  samson’s  life  is  in  danger.
of  course  they  worry,  but  samson  has  a  relatively  smooth  upbringing,  summer  camp  more  of  an  enriching  experience  than  one  that  teaches  children  to  fight  for  their  lives.   it  isn’t  until  the  attack  at  the  theatre  that  it  truly  hits  home,  and  when  grace  is  seriously  injured  and  lila  killed,  there’s  a  growing  resentment  towards  absent  father  and  ‘  the  demigod  curse  ’  that  he’s  put  upon  their  family.   but  that  resentment  would  never  extend  to  samson  —  even  if  he  feels  nothing  but  guilt  over  his  mother’s  injuries  —  and  they  support  him  throughout  his  studies  at  eonia,  visiting  annually  when  they’re  able.
›  003.   when  did  they  get  claimed  by  their  godly  parent ? 
samson’s  unofficial  claiming  came  the  first  time  he  used  his  healing  powers  at  eight  years  old  ;  his  official  claiming  came  the  second  he  stepped  upon  the  island  of  camp  haumana,  a  golden  lyre  blazing  bright  upon  his  forehead  and  only  solidifying  feelings  of  wholeness  at  knowing  that  missing  part  of  his  heritage.
›  004.   did  they  attend  a  camp ?
 camp  haumana  (  mixed  meaning  ;  literal  translation  is  ‘ student ’  in  hawaiian,  ‘ peaceful  spirit ’  in  tahitian  )  was  samson’s  home  every  summer  from  ages  12  to  17.   situated  on  the  equator  between  hawaii  and  french  polynesia,  the  uninhabited  island  was  repurposed  as  a  refuge  for  demigods  from  all  pantheons,  especially  favoured  by  those  born  in  the  oceania  region.
being  quite  isolated,  there  were  only  23  others  at  camp  during  his  time  there.   instead  of  being  split  up  by  god,  they  were  split  by  pantheon,  and  samson  found  himself  sharing  a  cabin  with  the  other  greek  demigods  on  the  island,  making  quick  friends  with  twins  of  poseidon  kai  and  malia.   their  schedule  was  based  less  around  war  strategy  and  more  around  nurturing  activities  that  made  use  of  the  natural  landscape,  incorporating  local  sports  such  as  outrigger  canoe  and  surfing  while  being  careful  to  be  respectful  to  the  island  and  the  gods  once  worshipped  there.
a  haven  of  peace,  samson  still  carries  fond  memories  of  his  time  at  camp  ;  climbing  through  treetops  on  makeshift  obstacle  courses,  firing  arrows  in  a  clearing  lined  with  blossoming  wildflowers,  singing  tahitian  songs  his  grandmother  taught  him  around  a  roaring  campfire.   in  comparison,  camp  athen’s  stricter  fighting  schedule  took  him  a  while  to  adjust  to  when  he  was  first  on  placement  there,  and  he  found  his  edges  softening  in  response  for  the  new  demigod  arrivals,  remembering  his  own  warm  welcome  and  how  that  impacted  his  stay.
the  people  he  met  at  camp  haumana  became  family,  and  he  has  plans  to  visit  the  permanent  residents  as  soon  as  the  school  year  is  over,  wanting  to  make  amends  (  there  have  been  opportunities  to  visit  before  now,  but  he  always  found  reasons  to  avoid  going  since  the  funeral  ).
›  005.   was  your  muse  ever  sent  on  any  quests ?
he  was  never  sent  on  any  quests  during  his  time  at  camp.   there  was  a  request  to  join  on  one  by  the  two  demigods  he  was  closest  to,  but  he  turned  it  down  in  favour  of  performing  as  fiyero  in  his  school’s  production  of  wicked,  the  promise  of  the  head  of  juilliard’s  admissions  attendance  what  swayed  his  decision.
the  quest  was  doomed  from  that  point  onwards,  samson’s  proficiency  in  healing  unmatched  by  even  the  resident  camp  healer  who  wasn’t  of  apollo  ancestry.   by  the  time  kai  and  malia  are  found  their  wounds  are  too  great  and  the  quest  is  deemed  a  failure,  samson  told  in  person  by  his  father  after  his  own  monster  attack  at  the  theatre  which  only  exacerbates  the  guilt  he  feels  over  rejecting  their  request.
›  006.   what’s  their  relationship  with  their  godly  parent ?
complicated.   he’d  be  surprised  if  any  demigod  didn’t  have  a  similar  relationship  —  over  the  years  since  he  last  saw  apollo  he’s  grown  a  great  deal,  having  come  to  terms  with  his  own  faults  and  the  part  he  played  in  their  happenings.   the  raw  resentment  he  felt  for  his  father  at  eighteen  is  now  dulled  by  time,  but  there’s  still  a  barrier  he’s  put  up  between  them  at  the  god’s  apparent  unwillingness  to  accept  responsibility  for  the  monster  attacks  he  and  his  family  are  in  danger  from  every  time  he  steps  outside  eonia’s  walls.   he’s  grateful  for  him  for  healing  his  mother,  but  his  father  still  leaves  much  to  be  desired.
›  007.   your  muse’s  favorite  part  about  being  a  demigod ?
while  he  believes  he’d  still  have  the  same  love  if  he  wasn’t  the  son  of  apollo,  samson  loves  just  how  connected  he  is  to  music  and  how  easily  he  picks  up  anything  music  related.   despite  the  path  of  a  performer  being  one  he  left  many  years  ago,  there’s  no  better  place  than  losing  yourself  in  song,  expressing  his  mana  and  allowing  himself  to  be  free.
he’s  also  come  to  truly  appreciate  his  healing  powers  and  how  much  good  he  can  do  with  them.   he’s  always  wanted  to  inspire,  to  be  a  beacon  of  light  for  people  that  when  he  was  younger  would  express  through  the  arts.   now  he  channels  that  energy  into  being  there  for  his  fellow  demigods,  kids  like  him  who  had  no  choice  in  being  born  into  their  circumstances.   he’s  found  his  true  calling,  and  while  there  are  fleeting  times  he  wishes  he  could  just  be  normal,  he  knows  this  is  where  he’s  meant  to  be.
›  008.   your  muse’s  least  favorite  part  about  being  a  demigod ?
the  danger.   the  feeling  of  always  watching  over  your  shoulder  when  you  step  outside  protected  walls.   he  hates  that  people  were  hurt  because  of  him,  and  will  carry  that  guilt  around  as  a  permanent  reminder  for  as  long  as  he  draws  breath.   he  hates  that  despite  demigods  dying  around  the  world  seemingly  every  day,  their  parents  are  loathe  to  react,  to  protect  those  they’ve  helped  create.   it’s  a  big  subject  of  contention,  and  one  he  will  always  make  known  to  his  closest  friends  who  are  aware  what  he’s  campaigning  for.
›  009.   what’s  your  muse’s  weapon  and  battle  proficiency ?
samson’s  primary  weapon  is  a  bow  and  arrow  gifted  to  him  by  apollo  just  after  his  twelfth  birthday.   after  his  attack  and  how  he  didn’t  have  it  to  hand  when  he  needed  it,  he  made  a  deal  with  his  father  to  imbue  an  arrow  tattoo  he  had  inked  on  his  forearm  with  a  simple  recalling  spell,  meaning  all  he  has  to  do  is  place  the  three  fingers  he  uses  to  draw  back  the  bow  to  his  tattoo  and  the  weapon  will  appear.
he’s  proficient  enough  in  hand  to  hand  combat,  but  prefers  long  range  in  a  fight  ;  his  archery  skills  unmatched  by  those  that  aren’t  apollo’s  children,  using  them  to  help  teach  at  camp  athens  whenever  he’s  there  on  placement.

"He haumana 'ōlelo Hawai'i au!" Today is the last day of UHʻs first summer session. Itʻs been intense, but also super rewarding.
Iʻm about to put the finishing touches on my final for ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi - an audio-visual presentation as I introduce my ʻohana. So many feelings have bubbled up as I delve into studying another endangered language, jeopardized by colonialism and ongoing occupation as is the case by in my beloved 'nmarijima of Loo Choo / #Uchinaa / "Okinawa"....  My heart aches but also....each word we speak brings life and gives me renewed hope. It is also ever humbling and inspiring as #Shimanchu / #Uchinaanchu living in Hawai'i to be able to learn from kanaka maoli here in Hawai'i. Thanks to our AMAZING kumu, sign-language and illustrations have replaced the traditional flash cards I typically create with my other language studies... Itʻs proven to be pretty effective strategy to help me begin to "think" in the language rather than simply try to recall the English meaning. For those whoʻve been curious, hereʻs a glimpse... huaʻōlelo hou: moe example usage: ʻIke ʻo Kūkahauʻula iā Poliʻahu. Ua moe ʻo Kūkahauʻula i lalo, no ka mea, kapu ʻo Poliʻahu.
