Rere ana ngā kare a roto i enei uri o Mokomoko, i a rātou e whakamaumahara ana i te kotahi rau, rima tekau tau o te whare karakia o Hiona ki Opotiki me ona kōrero.
Hei tā Te Riaki Amoamo, “Papa ana te whatitiri, haruru ana te rangi i roto i tēnei toru rā, ki a mātou i konei.”
Kei enei pakitara o te whare karakia e iri ana ngā kōrero tuku iho. I konei i kohuruhia te minita a Te Waakana. Ka tahuri te Karauna me o rātou whakapae ki Te Whakatohea, ko te matenga o Mokomoko te otinga atu.
Ko enei whakamaumahara e whakatakoto ana i tētahi ara whakamua mō te minenga o Opotiki me te haahi.
I tera tau i wetekia ngā whakapae ki runga o Mokomoko nā te whakamanatanga o te pire unu hara mōna ki roto o te whare paremata. I tēnei rā, ka whakaarahia ngā kōrero hitori hei tirohanga whakamua.
