A Kiss from the Ancient Lady of the Sea

Image
I’m from Fiji, Solevu Bay in Bua. I have a story of ancient entity that haunts our waters to this day.  She is known as “ Lewa Cinacina ” or Lady of the Light 💡 or The Ancient Lady of the Sea . She is an ancient Mer-Creature 🧜‍♀️ that is known to be a harbinger of death 💀. She also has the ability to shape shift . She is known to take the shape of sea creatures or persons recently lost at sea. Her most seen form is of a young beautiful woman dressed in brilliantly bright white light. She can be seen swimming rock pools on the reef during moonless nights. When a chieftain dies or is about to die, the light that emanates from her is red. Her husband is “Dakuwaqa”, from Cakaudrove. We have a folklore that if you find yourself adrift in the middle of the Pacific Ocean on a stormy night ... we chant a prayer to the “Ancient Lady of Sea”,  to come to our aid and bring us (her grand children) to the safety of her home Bay....

Ssssh…Pass the cigarette! Kere Kavuru (Fijian)

Walking home from Korovou to RKS after missing the last bus, with no carriers in sight, Sikeli and I decided to take the journey on foot. This was back when the road was still rough gravel, long before the well-lit highway of today. There were shortcuts, dark and tangled paths through dense woods that could shave off a good portion of the trip. I’d never dare to walk those paths alone, but with Sikeli beside me and our conversation filling the dark, I felt safer. Even then, there were stretches where we fell silent, senses sharp. Every sound, every movement caught our ears; eyes darting, nostrils flaring to catch the scent of anything amiss. The air hung thick with tension, especially on moonless nights when it felt like something unseen might be stalking us from the shadows, waiting, watching as we made our way through those dreaded patches. A sense of relief would wash over me as soon as my feet touched the rough gravel again—the sharp bite of pebbles underfoot a welcome reminder tha...
