Matani, a commoner and unfulfilled taro farmer with enigmatic abilities, is thrust into two otherworldly journeys by the guidance of his ancestral spirits. The first voyage aboard a double-hulled canoe reveals celestial wonders and a perilous secret on Oʻahu. The second odyssey leads him through a mystical island, where visionary encounters with ancient spirit guides unveil his profound lineage to a race steeped in myth. As Matani learns to heal his soul with age-old spirit medicine, he stands on the brink of a fateful clash with unearthly forces—a confrontation that could alter the fate of humanity.

Hano the Bone Breaker, towering leader of the legendary Shark Warriors, is shrouded in enigma. Known as Ruling Chief Vahanui's firstborn and master military strategist, he exudes an aura of formidable might. Behind the whispered tales of night-shrouded training and bone-shattering prowess lies a secret—Hano's true essence. More than a fearsome warrior, he is a soulful navigator, attuned to the sea's ancient call. In Hano, the depths of intrigue run deeper than the eye perceives.

A mystic of ethereal presence, emerges from the realm of The Island Worlds. Her piercing blue eyes, reminiscent of Matani's mother, hold ancient wisdom. Clad in a robe adorned with lizard motifs and wielding an ornate staff, she is a revered teacher from a lineage steeped in mysticism. An enigmatic guide from centuries past, Tūtū Ona is destined to illuminate Matani's hidden heritage and impart the secrets of Hawaiian spirit medicine. Her timeless aura weaves a bridge between realms, awakening Matani to his true legacy.

Born to the untamed wilderness, Nahoa is an enigma—a dog unlike any other. Unlike the familiar "poi dogs" with their flat heads, shaped by generations of subsisting on a diet of vegetables, Nahoa defied the expected traits of his breed. The landscape had forged him, and the challenges of the wild had honed his instincts. Nahoa's keen eyes and rugged frame tell the story of a survivor, one who has likely roamed the wilderness since his earliest days as a pup, fending for himself against the elements and unseen dangers. Yet, beneath the veneer of defiance, there lay a noble heart, steadfast and true—a heart that finds a companion in Matani, as the two embark on a journey where trust and loyalty become their guiding light.
