Identity: Moken fisherman. Used to free-dive, but is unwell. Lives with Mama, their son Sky (Marti) and daughters, Coral and Petal, in a bamboo hut built on stilts on the shoreline.
Beliefs: “The ocean is my universe; I was born with the sound of the waves in my ears and the smell of the sea filling my body. And the ocean is still inside me.”
About Marti: “My son is dishonouring his ancestors and the spirits. If we forget our traditions, we become less than ourselves. Our forefathers passed on knowledge that we should treasure, not ignore.”
