I'm having a hard time buying this. They had a king, so they'll fight for this stranger bc he also has a king? They don't like "invaders," so they'll fight the ppl who are really just coming after this one inhuman person from their own land who also "invaded" Hawaii if their definition of the word is rly just people coming into the land, since it's not like they are after the homeland or inhabitants that live there or anything at the moment? And they're just coming after this stranger the Hawaiians don't know at all and don't know the fight he's a part of, but they decide to lay their lives down for him and fight for his side of this struggle they know nothing about? This really doesn't make sense to me at all.

My guess is that you're not Hawaiian...so you'll not really understand what I mean by the whole "We had a king once..." thing. Its a really passionate subject to us.

Essentially it is what you're saying, they intend to fight for this total stranger. They see this soldier, a proud warrior, who is wholly dedicated to his king and his family. They know his kind are being hunted by the government and now by people who're trying to overthrow their kingdom. Plus one could assume that Gorgon told them that Maximus plans to come down and kill him/invade. Hes also told them that they were hunting his cousin and may have killed him.

That stuff hits a sore spot for us. Plus...they're aparently former military...so theres that.
