Tawhiri, the god of weather and storms, was furious. He saw how terribly sad Papa and Rangi were to be torn apart. He saw the tears of rain that fell from Rangi. Tawhiri raged, and sent hurricanes and sea swells to fight against his brothers. Tāne was driven to hide in his forests, which Tahwiri destroyed with horrible floods. Tangora was thrown into the sea, where he was attacked by the wind and lightning. Rongo and Haumia took refuge in the earth, shielding themselves in Papa's embrace. As a result, Rongo became the god of agriculture and Haumia became the god of wild plants. Caring for the Earth, these brothers remained hidden in Papa's arms.
