Why Maungarei sleeps
One day Maungarei woke up furious from her rest and was outraged by the other maunga and was annoyed, but when she calmed down she wanted to play with the other young maunga like her so when she asked the other maunga if she could play with them and she was ignored, so she was even more furious then before so smoke started to exit her crater so she asked them one more time and still she was ignored so then she shot lots and lots of debris from her crater and then she snapped so then she blinded everybody and when the debris went away she Exploded! But still her mind was taken over by rage so then for one more time she Exploded again but once she calmed down she realised how much damage she caused. So she was sad and knew she would be lonely no matter what. So after thinking about everything she did she became a Dormant Volcano and has remained a Dormant Volcano ever since. And until now after hearing these stories people wonder if Maungarei was a lonely and emotional mountain or was an evil mountain who might strike the earth with meteors in the future.
