Ki-O-Rahi Comic 1

This is what I had to make a comic about when illustrating a scene. It was when a wizard had brought the sister's sun which made everything burn really hot. Here is what the writing is: Ti Rahi’s abductors, however, eventually became aware of Rahi’s approaching presence. The tohunga (wizard, priest) of their tribe cast another spell, which caused a hot scorching sun to appear in the sky. This sun was the sister of Ra, the regular sun. Immediately the green luscious forest dried up in the heat, and its brown withered leaves fell like snow onto the once green forest floor. Next a strong wind gusted, blowing away the dried remains of the forest, leaving nothing in its wake but a vast sandy desert.

Rimu's Annoying Friend

Rimu heard a voice yelling, “Rimu, Rimu!”. He heard something hitting the window. He rolled over trying to block the noise. He still felt sleepy. He couldn’t figure out why he could hear his name. “It can’t be hail, not in the middle of summer anyway” Rimu thought.


He sat up, and looked around. It was early dawn. He could just make out a silhouette, which leant over and wrapped again, louder this time, as if it were to break the window. “Rimu! Hey Rimu! You deadhead. Wake up already!”
Rimu groaned. “Ollie! Leave me be.” He wished it was hail.

Possum Poles (Algebra Question)



This is what one of my questions for Possum Poles (Algebra),The character Peta had done in 9 minutes to get to 18 metres and 20 metres would me 10 minutes.

The table has 2 sides, Metres, & Minutes. The minutes only go up to 9 minutes, and the metres only go up to 18 metres but it would Peta 9 minutes & 50 seconds to make it to 20 metres.
