• Brother... we have answered your call, we are here; your family, your friends, your wife. Our hearts throb and cry, and yet, we must let you follow the path of Tāne. We return your soul to your ancestors. And so... farewell, farewell, farewell... go to join those who are now celestial beings. Goodbye brother.
