![]() Though Sina is mortified to see her daughter leave, she supports her decision and helps pack, bidding farewell as Moana disappears into the night. Sina can hardly hold back tears as she watches her mother-in-law die before her, and as a final promise to her grandmother, Moana leaves the hut to pack her resources in preparation for her mission to return Te Fiti's heart. This leads to another confrontation between Moana and Tui, but they are both horrified to receive word of Gramma Tala's failing health. Moana arrives and claims that their ancestors were great voyagers, meaning they should venture into the sea and return the legendary heart of Te Fiti (as its removal is the cause of their island's plaguing curse) to save their home. Quite some time afterward, Sina and Tui gather the villagers to discuss their island's increasing crises. Sina further explains that Tui's aggression is out of love for his family and people. Tui managed to survive the disaster, but his best friend could not be saved in time. When he and his friend took a boat into the waters one night, the rough seas tipped them over. Sina comforts her daughter and explains that her father was much like Moana at a young age. Moana, confused by her father's anger, laments that he simply doesn't understand her. This angers Tui, who confronts Moana and aggressively declares that no one is to ever leave the reef. Tui and Sina see no apparent solution or cause, but Moana suggests they sail pass the reef to find fish elsewhere. One day, the villagers complain that the coconuts across the island are dying and that the fish are no longer in their waters. As such, Moana takes part in solving problems throughout the village. As Moana grows older, she accepts her parents' wishes, and Sina works alongside her husband in preparing Moana to one day become the next Chief of Motunui. Like her husband Tui, Sina encourages Moana to embrace her island home and follow Tui's law that prohibits anyone from sailing pass the reef. Sina is first seen during the song, " Where You Are" as part of the loving community that makes up the tropical island of Motunui. Sina even explains Tui's tragic past to Moana, in the hopes of her daughter understanding Tui's overprotectiveness come from a place of love. Though Sina does not like Tui's strict laws on anyone traveling beyond the ocean, she does know her husband is only trying to protect their daughter and people. She does support Tui's ban of going far beyond the reef, but she does seem to appreciate Moana's love for the sea. Sina serves as a supportive figure to both her husband and daughter. ![]() Playful, sharp and strong-willed, Sina appreciates Moana's longing to be on the water, but also wants to protect her daughter from the fabled dangers beyond the reef.
