The Toa of Stone sent his elemental powers against the entity's creation.  Instantly, the legs crumbled beneath the rock monster."We smash it."
Another wave of power and the arms detached neatly and fell to the floor."We carve it."
A final burst of energy and the rock creature crumbled to dust. "And sometimes we just give up..."Onewa said. Concentrating, he drew the rock dust and shattered pieces back together to form a boulder. "And start over again."
