Kino Turell
From Ahsca Wiki
Kino Turell the Island Cheif of Corona, and subject to a motion picture by Sakura Taisen and is a now famous poltical and historical figure in AHSCA and Mokastana. He was kidnapped and killed by militant forces unknown only believed to be from the Union of Red Tide. He was one of the co-signees to the AHSCA Deceleration of Independence and co-drafter of the constitution, which may have ultimately led to his death. He is the late husband of Chief Ayla
[edit] Early Life
Because of the primitive conditions of the AHSCA islands including Corona what is known about Kino is only known to those who have known him. However many of Kino's friends and family were killed in the war, and his parents died soon after he became chief. What is known from accounts of his wife Ayla is that Kino courted Ayla for a short while. Both fell in love and were officially married by the Cheif. It was shortly after his marriage that Kino was asked to be chief. His age is also a mystery because no accurate records are kept. Coronans see them selves as timeless figures from birth to death. They keep no track of time and no records of time or births.
[edit] Accentuation to Chief
Kino became chief after weeks of rigorous tasks. This included walking a thin line over the pit of a volcano sailing around the island in a storm and dueling several others. He was named chief after successfully completing all tasks. He proved to be very popular amongst his people, and always found ways to settle disputes with compromise or just reason. He was even known to convince people they were wrong even though they were too proud to admit it the first time around. Following any major storm or hurricane Kino was the first out of the shelter to rebuild the huts of other islanders before his own. Ayla was also at his side when ever he was doing this. He also took care of the children when parents went away on long trips and helped orphaned ones find families on the island.
When the idea of a protection pact was first proposed Kino was hesitant but convinced by Shino Villa to agree. Kino signed and convinced Ayla to sign. Ayla stated she didn't think Kino regretted even when the islands fell under siege.
Following the first Hanover Conflict Kino didn't particularly like the GDI peace keepers in the area. According to Ayla GDI peacekeepers often would come onto the beaches of Corona with out consideration.
Kino learned English just to plead with them to leave his people in peace. These accounts are unfounded and solely based on the testimony of Ayla Turell.
[edit] The War
WWhen the island chain was dragged into a large scale war Kino took up arms to fight off the invaders. When Red Tide came ashore in Corona, Kino fought them as best off as he could but a lack of experience offset his determination. Ayla was busy trying to get as many people off the island as possible to an island to the north. When the defenses collapsed, Kino and the rebellion fled Corona to Aurora Island. Following the great storm which forced most of the major forces out, the island leaders including Ayla and Kino felt it was time to declare their independence. Several small uprisings had occurred earlier on Hoshino, Truce and Corona, and Red Tide was forced off of Animalpolis which gave them confidence. However declaring independence proved to be largely unsuccessful and Red Tide reacted viciously.
The Red Tidean forces threatened mass executions if Kino did not turn himself in. Unable to live with that Kino surrendered himself but not before sending his wife away to safety. Kino turned himself in and according to witnesses was taken by agents of the Red Tidean PKI, which acts as the chief Red Tidean secret police apparatus. The Red Tidean Government continues to refuse to so much as discussing the matter. With the usual interrogation techniques Red Tideans are largely infamous for, Kino didn't stand a chance. His body was discovered weeks after the war by Aleardian soldiers doing peace keeping and humanitarian work on the island. Ayla was promoted to cheif and his body was autopsied, discovering severe cuts, indications of beatings, and a gunshot wound in the back of the neck. Several unknown chemicals were found in his body. He was honorably burned and his ashes spread shortly after.
