- #1“Māui & Wiremu: Brothers of Two Eras A short cinematic story you can drop straight into Heart of Aotearoa. The Setup The battle has just ended — a massive taniwha, scales shattered across the riverbank, the air still humming with the echo of ancient power.Smoke rises from the cracked earth.Birds return to the trees one by one.
