Description:		The story explains the origin of the kava plant and its use as a drug. As two lovers who haven't had a single fight during their long and fulfilling marriage get old, the wife tells her husband one day that she feels she is going to die. She instructs him to bury her body nearby the house and that a plant is going to grow from her grave. When this plant has grown big, he should take its roots, grind them and mix them with water. Then he should invite all the chiefs of the area to drink. They should repeat this procedure each evening, and whenever they drink the kava, they should think of her. Thus, the drug is a token of her memory to her husband.
