FAUMEA
Tuamotu Fertility Goddess
Mother Goddess of Fertility
Apparently she lived on an island — or possibly was the island — and secreted eels about her person in a way which only a lover or a dedicated customs officer could have detected.
These eels were deadly, but Tangaroa, not willing to risk his anatomy, managed to lure them out. A marriage proposal followed shortly thereafter.
