Oro, god of the heavens often watched his children below. He would often visit the earth by riding a brilliant rainbow down to the island people. One day as he visited the earth he became infatuated with a beautiful woman named Uaro who was already happily married. Unable to hide his feelings for Uaro, he began to pursue her and to show his love, gave her a giant black pearl the size of her palm. Unmatched in beauty and size, the pearl reflected the beauty and brilliant vivid colors of the rainbow. Uaro accepted the gift and treasured it above all her possessions, yet remained faithful to her husband.
As time went by, Uaro and her husband has a child — Teufi. Uaro loved her child so much she gave her prized black pearl to Teufi, the one that had been given to her by Oro. As time went by, Teufi grew to become just as beautiful as her mother and was pursued by many suitors. Oro watched over her and she promised to only marry a man who would bring her a pearl as large and as beautiful as the one that was given to her from her mother.
From far and wide the suiters came. Among them, twin brothers who proved to be the most dedicated and skillful. One of the brothers was so enamoured with Teufi that he promised without fail to find that rare oyster that would have a pearl as large as the other pearl given to her by her mother.
Unknowingly, the brother had challenged the god Oro by saying that he could find a pearl just as large as Oro's gift. Oro made the brother's journey long and difficult. But the brother was strong. He trained long and hard and built up his strength needed to search the seas. The pearl diving was difficult and the brother had been diving many weeks. The brother becaume discouraged but kept looking... searching far and wide.
Digging deep into the ocean depths, the brother finally, found a matching pearl. Exhausted and depleted of strength, he presented the pearl to Teufi. With great joy she accepted the pearl.
Friends and family gathered to celebrate the wedding. They brought food and gifts and it was one of the largest celebrations ever in Tahiti. Yet the festivites would never match the magnificence of the black pearl.
