Why Maui Snares the Sun Long ago, Kala (the sun) raced across the sky as he pleased, leaving the land and its people with short days and long, dark nights. Among those suffering from the lack of daylight was the goddess Hina, mother of Maui, the demigod. In order to make things pono (right), Maui summons all his courage and travels to the highest summit of Haleakala where he confronts the Mighty Kala.
