As a little boy, Blond Garth was shipwrecked. Clinging to an empty water cask, he washed up on an island and was raised by Bubu the Medicine Man. Under the wise tutelage of Bubu, Garth grew to be “a mightier hunter than Tarantha, a keener fish spearer than Nehoa, a stronger swimmer than the deadly Maue”. As an adult he fought a shark and won the hand of the princess.
