Rangi, the Sky Father, held his beloved, Papa, and together they bore many sons who were not human, but rather elements of nature. These sons loved their parents, but Rangi and Papa's embrace was so tight that they had no space to move or to lead their lives. They lay in the darkness, constricted and unhappy. Tū, the first son, decided that he and his brothers must act. "We should kill our parents," he suggested, for he was the god of war. "It will be difficult, but it is the only way we can truly be free!"
