Moikeha was the father and Hooipoikamalanai was the mother of Kila, whose birthplace was the land of Kapaa. There were three children in the family, of which Kila was the youngest. While very young it was their custom to resort to the Wailua River and there learn the art of canoe sailing. In the wrestling matches Kila, though the youngest, always prevailed over his older brothers. One day, in order to determine which one of his sons was the strongest, bravest and most skillful in the art of canoe sailing, Moikeha decided to give them a test. After calling his sons to come before him, he said: “I want you all to go to the other side of the river and set your canoes down in the water and let them sail toward me. The one who will be able to so steer his canoe as to hit me in the navel will surely be the most prosperous amongst you.” After arriving at their stations the first-born set his canoe down and steered it to his father, but it missed the mark. The second son then in his turn set his down and steered it for the mark, but it missed also. Kila then in his turn started his, and it sailed directly to Moikeha and hit his navel. Moikeha then addressed his sons, saying: “You two,” turning to the oldest, “will never amount to much. This your youngest brother will be the most prosperous of you all.” As Kila grew up into manhood he also grew in beauty and manliness, so much so that he was recognized as the most handsome man in all of Kauai, he having no equal. He also grew up to be a very strong and brave man. Moikeha originally came from Tahiti, through grief and depression of spirit over Luukia. Because of his great grief he left his home Moaulanuiakea, the chiefs, the people and the demi-gods of the deep. On his way to Kauai he met Kakakauhanui off the Kalaau point, Molokai, fishing. This man had very long legs; his body while in the water could steady his canoe with his legs. He could stay under water without breathing for a very long time. Upon meeting this man, Moikeha took him as an adopted son and brought him along to Kauai. Moikeha was a high chief, and his wife Hooipoikamalanai was a chiefess of very high rank throughout the whole island of Kauai.
