The record — long form
Kaneana is the cave — the Kamohoali'i that's the shark god, the Nanaue that's the son. The mouth is the back — the 'shark mouth' that's the secret, the 'kapa' that's the covering. The '50 was the road — the construction that's the entrance, the 'destroyed' that's the original.
The sacrifice is the point — the 'human' that's the rituals, the Makua Charley that's the rumor. The 'belly' is the chamber — the ribcage that's the walls, the 'shark' that's the imagining. Kaneana is the home — the shark god that's the legend, the Nanaue that's the caught.
The file keeps Kaneana: the shark god legend, the Nanaue story, the '50 road, and the Makua cave.
Kaneana is the archive's Oahu file — the shark god's cave.
