The Great Cataclysm, also known as the Great Shadow, and referred to as The Fall by the Av-Matoran of Karda Nui, is the major turning point that made the Matoran Universe how it was for more then 1,000 years. It occurred just as the Great Spirit Mata Nui was cast into a coma by the actions of Teridax. When this happened, a great earthquake devastated the Matoran universe.

Aside from being the moment Mata Nui fell into his coma, the Great Cataclysm disrupted the entire Matoran universe, its effects including:

One thousand years after the Great Cataclysm, the Toa Nuva were sent to retrieve the Staff of Artakha. Failing to do so, it was eventually recovered by Botar from Brutaka whilst the latter was in The Pit. Aftewards, the Toa Nuva were teleported to a chamber on the island of Daxia, where they saw the staff used. It reversed much of the damage caused by the Great Cataclysm, with the exception being Karda Nui as it was unable to penetrate the dome's walls.
