Innocence

The first of the three 'Island Gods' of the Tui people.

They view these three islands to be great spirits of stone that give them life, in the form of the creatures and fruit, protect them from storms, thanks to their natural shape, and offer them guidance, in the form of the strange events that seem to naturally surround these unusual lands.

They worship them as gods and view them as all representing different aspects of life or different things they promote, different things they offer the people who choose to reside there.

Innocence, they say, offers them a kind, nurturing home that shelters them from storms, offers them homes in the form of its caves, and has no known predators and peaceful summers that they argue allows for people to live without much conflict and enjoy the peace and kindness that such a place offers. They argue that Innocence allows them to remain innocent, allows them to stay as sweet and happy as children, and thus it is often called Mother Stone by some.

Some, however, someday tire of this and choose to move on to one of the other two islands, Determination and Temperance, and believe that those islands have lessons to teach them too.
