The legend of Tokamotu of tuapa

 The Tokamotu is a stick that gave good luck and curses, first im gonna be talking about the good luck. When the Tokamotu is warm it would give the holders/villagers good luck. But if you remove or steal it from the place it was at, it will put a big curse on you and you will suffer. 

I think the Tokamotu is significant to these tribes prior to the “power” and good luck it will give them.

I think that the curse lineage of the hakapu brothers is because they were the ones that tried to steal the Tokamotu.
