This part of How to make an axe and a spear my ancestors have sent me a bird who is their messenger I speak Tongan to her because on Earth I am last speaker of language - she will take my message and longing for Tonga back to my ancestors. I tell them that I am looking after a camp of women and children after a nuclear war - I teach them how to make weapons like an axe and a spear

Translation
Hello my friend. Tell the ancestors that I am well and strong of spirit. I have cared for the women and children of this camp and they are thriving. I have taught them how to survive by providing them with our sacred weapons, and they are no longer afraid, but I I am afraid I want to return home to Saltwater to sand to fish to sail to the smell of fire coconut oil and heilala flowers I want to return to the arms or my Mother Tonga, I know I need to be patient
I will wait for her to call me home
