The story then details the quest of Pele’s younger sister, Hi‘iakaikapoliopele, to find the handsome Lohi‘auipo, and bring him back to their crater home. It is a very human account of love and lust, jealousy and justice, peopled with deities, demons, chiefs and commoners.\nThis version by Ho‘oulumāhiehie ran from 1905 to 1906 as a daily series in the Hawaiian-language newspaper Ka Na'i Aupuni.
