Whiro thought he had more right to the baskets than Täne, because he was the elder brother.
Whiro was back on earth too, and he demanded that he should be the one to take care of the treasures.
But Täne and his supporters refused Whiro's demands and Whiro was eventually banished to the underworld where he still lives, and continually tries to cause trouble for gods and mankind.

 CHAPTER III.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Great indeed was the wrath of Whiro (6) at Tāne (68) because of his inducing them to come forth from [the shelter of] their parents,to be 'bitten' by Wero-i-te-ninihi, Wero-i-te-wawana, and, Wero-i-te-kokota [the cold of space]—that was the cause of his anger.
Whiro would not give his consent to the appointment of the Pou-tiri-ao to their respective spheres.
Now, after the wars of the gods, Whiro (6) and his younger brethren, Tu-mata-uenga (11) and others as above written, the appointment of the Pou-tiri-aos [guardian spirits] to their functions in the planes of Rangi-nui [the Sky-father], Papu-tua-nuku [the Earth-mother], and to Lady-ocean, was duly completed.

The name moko means lizard and at the same time Whiro, who is the ruler of the underworld and diseases.
Whiro lost to Tane and withdrew to the underworld from where he, ever since, troubles man with diseases and where the tatau of the maori has it's mythical origin.

 CHAPTER IV.
Whiro and his companion gods ever continue the strife of Tahua-roa [emblematical for the continual warfare of Whiro towards mankind and all things], and there he appointed 'Maiki-nui' and 'Maiki-roa' [misfortunes, catastrophies] to utterly destroy all things—the water, the blood, the flesh, and the breath.
When Whiro reached Hades he there continued his war against his brethren [and mankind] by afflicting them with diseases, such as fevers by which man is destroyed; whilst Whakaru-au-moko continued his work by causing earthquakes and volcanic eruptions by aid of the ahi-komau [volcanic fires].
Pare-a-rau is said to be Saturn, but it is most unlikely that such astute observers as were the Maoris, and with the knowledge they had of the stars and their motions, should confound a planet with a fixed star—probably, Pare-a-rau was in reality one of the fixed stars.

Whiro had taunted them as they'd obeyed, turning their backs to their teammate as the Jaffa stripped her naked as she hung from chains attached to the ceiling.
The name was torn from her throat in agony, sounding more like a plea than a confession, and it wasn't until he tasted the bitter, coppery taste blood in his mouth that he realized he'd almost bitten through his lip.
