Werewere

[1] His mother was killed when he was young during an attack by Ngāti Raukawa forces led by Te Ata-inutai.

When Werewere found out, he went to Hipa-patua and cut the expeditions canoes free, sending them over the Huka Falls to destruction.

[4] When Tamamutu and Te Rangi-patoto returned to Hipa-patua and found that their canoes had all been destroyed, they were furious and they went by land to attack Werewere's village, Papohatu, on Lake Rotongaio, but were unable to capture it.

When they returned to attack Papohatu once more they found that Werewere had abandoned the village for Motu-o-rūrū, located on the Mangaone River near Te Pōhue in Hawke's Bay.

[6][7] Meanwhile, the other party, led by Te Teko went to northern Taupō and captured Wharewaka in the Battle of Manuka-ka-ruia.

Overnight, the man who had been given Urututu, told her to gather stones, firewood, and mauku fern.

[8][9] Tamamutu attacked the fortress anyway, captured Werewere's son Te Teko, whom he brought back to Taupō.
