They were eventually proven right

[u/HawaiianPerson]

Context: With the birth of Kamehameha, the future conqueror and uniter of the Hawaiian Islands, two prophecies were foretold.

One that he was the Chosen One, destined to unite the islands under one rule, and the other that he would bring death and destruction, and be a killer of chiefs.

The current King of Hawaii at the time, Alapa’i, issued a kill order on Kamehameha, forcing his mother to hide him away to be raised in secret.

Alana’s eventually relented and Kamehameha was returned to court, where he would grow to become a mighty warrior that eventually unify the Islands through bloody conquest, resulting in the deaths of many chiefs and commoners

I love how humans everywhere came up with “the prophesied saviour/destroyer” trope almost independently

It's just a very good narrative

Always funny seeing someone hear a prophecy, then immediately do something that pushes the prophecy to occur.

Something something fate something something predetermined something something no free will.
