The turtle and the shark

Long ago there lived on an island of savaii a young couple.

The name of the woman was Font-well and the man was long forgotten.
They were committed to each other and very much in love.
The man was called away to fulfil and unfortunate an inspected duty to king
Malie Tuafainga, a duty which he will never be able to return... and Font-well
went with him.
They never made it to see Malie Tuafainga instead they went to the island of Tui Tuila.
They lived for many months with tye chief Le tui, whose kindness never went
 but their peace was shortly.
They feared that sooner or later the secret of their disappear
be revealed resulting in this fortune this honour on Le Tui and on their families in sava'ii.
After unrolling the Gods for their families they gave up their lives .
But alone a merciful God had meaty on them and excepted the offer of their lives only in part and changed the women Fontwell into a turtle and the man a shark to live together eternally.
