My Retelling of Tane and the 3 kete.

 Tane and The Three Kete of Knowledge

My Retelling of the story

Before Tane left to get the 3 kete Tane chose  a place to build the School. 

Tane asked Tawitimatea to  make  wind ropes so he could climb up through the overworlds.

When Tane got to the 9th overworld he saw Whiro, his wicked brother. Whiro also wanted to get the 3 kete. Whiro sent  his followers the owls, bats ,mosquitoes and sandflies  to attack Tane so he wouldn't get to the 3 kete. 

Tawhirimatea saw this and blew all  Whiros followers  away to the far corners of the overworlds. Tane carried on to get the 3 kete.

 

When Tane  reached the 11th overworld  he met Rehua at the gates. Rehua gave him  the 3 kete of knowledge. 

 

On Tanes way back down to earth he met Whiro who was

waiting for him in the 9th overworld.  

The two brothers fought. Tane was going to lose but the  kete made him strong and he won. Tane  banished  Whiro to the underworld forever. 

Tane took the kete back to earth and hung them in the Wharekura.
