How Fire Came To Samoa by Makerita Urale

This is a legend about an earthquake god called Mafiue and a family. Every day the dad makes a six hour journy to the earthquake gods lair to serve him. Then one day the son of the dad follows him into the earthquakegods lair. Then he hides up a tree and then his dad finds him and he tells him to leave at once. Then he ate the food of Mafiue it was cooked but in those days they ate food raw. Then the god finds him and they wrestle and the young boy say to the god " give us fire so we can cook our food and I will let you go". The god agrees and then they never ate raw food again.
