grilled fish

            blackstripe coris
Hawaiian legend tells of two gods (who were also brothers) who each took the form of this fish (hilu). One was caught by a fisherman and put on a grill. The other brother assumed human form and rescued the fish, releasing it to the sea. To this day, all hilu bear the lengthwise stripes from being on the fire.
