Once ago there lived a man called Mataaho he lived with his wife on Maungawhau. She was very kind and prepared dinner for him every night.
One day while Mataaho was gone and was still gone late into the night his wife soon became furious and she packed angrily and left. When Mataaho arrived he saw that his wife had gone and their was no delicious meal prepared for him.
Moments later he began to feel cold alone and extremely starving but then Mahuika the fire goddess appeared she was a wise old lady her eyes were red as if they were on fire a faint aroma of smoke surrounded her she lit fires all around Auckland Mataaho felt warm again like he did when his kind loving wife was their he felt like he was home.
