Plot summary
The Great Spirit Mata Nui created the masked Matoran inhabitants of the island, but his envious spirit brother Makuta put him into a coma and began a reign of terror that ended when six guardians, the Toa, freed the island. In the fire village Ta-Koro, the guard captain Jaller and the chronicler Takua find a Great Kanohi in a cave, and the Fire Toa Tahu saves Takua from a lava wave. At a multi-tribal Kohlii match the mask is revealed by accident, and the Turaga recognize it as the Mask of Light, which signals a seventh Toa of Light destined to defeat Makuta. The Turaga send Jaller and Takua to find that Toa, and Jaller is believed to be its herald. Makuta senses the mask and sends three Rahkshi to retrieve it.
