In a Maori legend there was a man called Rahi-Tutaka-Hina, he had had a beautiful wife named Ti ara-kura-pake-wai but for short Ti Ara. Then one day when Ti ara was in the forest, gathering flowers and plants, the Patupaiarehe carried her off dragging her deeper in the forest. None of her tribe could find her through the forest, until they realized that they put a spell on the forest to make the vines thick, so it can be difficult for them to find Ti Ara.
Once Rahi-Tutaka-Hina found out about what happened to his wife. He built a huge Manu Tangata and loaded it with moa egg's packed in his Ki as food for his long journey. Then he set off his Manu Tangata to find his wife Tawhirimatea god of the wind, sent breeze to Rahi-Tutaka-Hina so his Manu Tangata can be sent into the air.
While he was riding his Manu Tangata, the Manu Tangata tipped sideways, dropping the moa eggs in to a nest of Namu, the giant hokioi and the Namu's chick's ate the moa egg's eagerly. Then the Manu Tangata set Rahi-Tutaka-Hina in a clear space where Ti Ara was being dragged through the forest, She had bent back the leave of the sliver fern's. The leave's made a silver trail for Rahi-Tutaka-Hina to follow, and set off after her.
The Patupaiarehe that he was being followed by Rahi. Suddenly their tohunga cast even more spells Just then a fiery sun burned the forest trees ,then a strong wind blew, the land became a desert of hot warm sand. Rahi was very exhausted and thirsty there was nothing in the place where he was but a yellow rock, as soon as he reached the yellow he threw one of his Ki's on to it, the Mauri of the ki turned the bare rock into a cool green.
While he rested in shade the rock Namu the giant hokioi landed beside him, the hokioi cooled Rahi-Tutaka-Hina face with water from her beak. From a blink of an eye a enormous lizard appeared and trapped Rahi-Tutaka-Hina by making a river around them. At that second the enormous lizard turned into a Taniwha and tried to attack them both it the sun started to set and he was trapped it was really cold so the Namu did its best to keep Rahi-Tutaka-Hina. Until finally he managed to untrape himself .
Rahi-Tutaka-Hina found his way back home and gathered his tribe to find his beloved wife. At least they found the volcano where she was hidden. Just then the volcano was about to erupt in any moment Rahi and his people blocked the vents. That volcano was so hot Patupaiarehe were forced to bring Ti ara back out and give what Rahi was seeking. But before any thing Patupaiarehe wanted to settle this by making peace. Rahi thought until he came up with an idea he said instead of fighting he invented a game Ki-O-Rahi. for all this drama they settled it my inventing a game.
This is how you play Ki-O-Rahi first you need equipment
1 Bin as the Tupu
2 Cones
3 7 poles
4 8 people each group
5 only 16 people allowed
One team is called Taniwai and the other Kioma. The Taniwai team aim is to hit the tupu, the bin,with out get their tags ripped off. Kioma aim is three people have to been in the middle and have to block the other team from hitting the tupu and the rest have to pull the tags.
